Artefill is an injectable wrinkle filler that provides long lasting wrinkle correction. Other fillers are absorbed by the body and require frequent repeat injections to maintain the results. Artefill's unique microspheres are not absorbed by the body and provide the support your skin needs for normal, long lasting results.
Q. How does Artefill work?
A. First, the collagen in Artefill visibly reduces the wrinkles right away, then the microspheres provide a support matrix for natural, enduring wrinkle correction.
Q. Is Artefill safe?
A. Yes. Artefill has proven to be a safe and effective dermal filler for the correction of nasolabial folds and was approved by the U.S. FDA in October 2006. In clinical testing, Artefill was as safe as the control temporary filler.
Q. What is microspheres?
A. The tiny microspheres in Artefill are made of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), one of the most widely used materials in medicine since 1949. The microspheres in Artefill remain intact at the injection site and provide structural support to keep your wrinkles from returning.
Q. How long does an Artefill treatment take?
A. A typical Artefill treatment only takes about 15-30 minutes. It's easy to fit it into your lunch hour and you can return to your normal activities immediately.
Q. When will I see results with Artefill and how long will the results last?
A. You will see results immediately. In the U.S. clinical studies, full wrinkle correction was maintained.
Q. Will I need more than one treatment of Artefill?
A. Most people get the results they want with one or two treatments, depending on the depth of their wrinkles and folds. When you have your follow-up appointment, you and Dr. Dima can decide if you would like to further enhance your results.
Q. Are the injections painful?
A. Artefill is formulated with an anesthetic (lidocaine) for patient comfort.
