What are PMMA Microspheres and How Do They Work in Bellafill?
Bellafill is a popular dermal filler that is used to treat a variety of cosmetic concerns, including nasolabial folds, cheek volume loss, and acne scars. One of the key components of Bellafill is polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, which work in combination with collagen to provide long-lasting results. In this blog post, we’ll explore what PMMA microspheres are and how they work in Bellafill.
What are PMMA Microspheres?
PMMA microspheres are tiny, spherical beads that are made from polymethylmethacrylate, a safe and durable material that has been used in medical and cosmetic applications for many years. PMMA microspheres are biocompatible, which means that they are not rejected by the body, and they are long-lasting, which makes them ideal for use in dermal fillers.
How Do PMMA Microspheres Work in Bellafill?
In Bellafill, PMMA microspheres are combined with collagen to create a filler that provides immediate results and long-lasting improvement. The collagen in the filler provides immediate volume, which helps to smooth out the appearance of wrinkles and scars. Over time, the PMMA microspheres help to stimulate collagen production, which further improves the appearance of the skin.
The PMMA microspheres in Bellafill are specially designed to be long-lasting and to provide a natural-looking result. Unlike other fillers that can be absorbed by the body over time, Bellafill provides long-lasting results that can last for up to five years. This means that you won’t need to schedule repeated treatments to maintain your results.
