Belotero is an injectable filler that is primarily composed of hyaluronic acid, designed to smooth out and fill in stubborn facial folds and wrinkles. This FDA-approved treatment replenishes the skin’s hydration, providing a silky-smooth finish.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component found within our skin. Which is precisely why Belotero is both safe and effective in adding volume to the skin’s surface. The results are immediate – as the injectable gel binds with the water in your dermis, filling in lines, creases, wrinkles, and any sunken and hollow areas of the face.
Belotero can address various areas of concern, including lip volumization, softening fine lines, refining facial contours, and restoring structure. It has a remarkable ability to adapt to every unique needs, resulting in a natural-looking appearance.
Why Belotero?
One of the main benefits of Belotero is the uniqueness of its mixture. It utilizes a specialized technology known as Cohesive Polydensified Matrix (CPM) that will seamlessly integrate different densities of hyaluronic acid, creating a blend of high and low-density zones. Belotero blends in effortlessly into your skin without disturbing your natural facial contours or expressions.
While some filler treatments may result in a puffy or uneven appearance, Belotero is adept at avoiding this issue. With the component of hyaluronic acid, Belotero also hydrates and rejuvenates the skin’s surface, restoring freshness and youthful glow for a lasting effect.
