Why ArteFill®?
Facial wrinkles are a result of the natural aging process. Over time, the skin loses its ability to repair
itself as the underlying elastin and collagen fibers break down. Heredity, UV exposure, and repetitive facial movement can all contribute to the development of facial wrinkles and folds.
ArteFill® is the first and only FDA-approved non-resorbable wrinkle filler for the correction of smile
lines.
- Immediate, visible results with no downtime
- A simple, in-office procedure
- Excellent safety profile
- Results improve over the course of several months and stand the test of time
- Usually requires only one or two treatments
How does ArteFill® work?
ArteFill® contains PMMA microspheres and purified bovine collagen gel with an anesthetic for comfort
during injection. ArteFill® is a dual-acting injectable wrinkle filler that provides immediate and long lasting results.
First, ArteFill® visibly corrects the wrinkle. The microspheres then provide the permanent support your
skin needs for enduring wrinkle correction.
Before your initial treatment with ArteFill®, a skin test must be administered 4 weeks prior to screen for
an allergy to bovine collagen.
ArteFill® is different.
If you have previously used temporary dermal fillers such as hyaluronic acid, collagen and fat, then you know
they are eventually absorbed by the body and require frequent repeat injections to maintain correction.
ArteFill® is different. The unique microspheres in ArteFill® are not absorbed by the body and provide
the permanent support your skin needs for long-lasting wrinkle correction.
Enduring Results.
Depending on the depth of their wrinkles and folds, most people get the results they want with one or two
treatments.
With ArteFill Progressive Enhancement (gradual wrinkle correction), you and your doctor can tailor a
treatment program to meet your individual needs. This personalized approach helps to ensure you get the results you desire.
