Bellafill®

At Summerlin Dermatology in Las Vegas, we proudly offer Bellafill®, the only FDA-approved dermal filler that provides long-lasting correction for smile lines and acne scars. Unlike traditional fillers, Bellafill works immediately and continues to support your skin over time, helping you achieve smoother, more youthful-looking skin with results that can last up to five years.

Long-Lasting Correction for Wrinkles and Scars

Bellafill® is a unique dermal filler designed to improve two common concerns: nasolabial folds (smile lines) and moderate to severe acne scars. Its dual-action formula contains collagen gel for immediate volume and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, which stimulate your skin’s own collagen production for continued support. Unlike many fillers that fade within months, Bellafill has been proven effective for up to five years, making it one of the longest-lasting filler options available.


Why Consider Bellafill?

Patients choose Bellafill for its combination of immediate results and long-term benefits:


  • Instant smoothing of smile lines and lifting of acne scars

  • Clinically proven results lasting up to five years

  • Natural-looking correction as your body generates new collagen

  • FDA-approved for both smile lines and acne scar treatment

  • Fewer maintenance treatments compared to other fillers

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Bellafill®?

Bellafill may be right for you if you are:


  • 21 or older and seeking long-term improvement in smile lines or acne scars.

  • Comfortable with undergoing a collagen skin test prior to treatment (required at least four weeks before injections).

  • In good general health without severe allergies, bleeding disorders, or a history of thick scarring.

  • Not pregnant or breastfeeding.


Because Bellafill contains bovine collagen, allergy testing is an essential step to ensure safety.

What to Expect During the Procedure

Bellafill treatments are performed in-office at Summerlin Dermatology and typically take 30 to 60 minutes. A fine needle is used to place the filler beneath the skin, instantly adding volume and smoothing targeted areas. Most patients find the procedure well-tolerated, as Bellafill contains lidocaine for added comfort.

Recovery and Aftercare

Most patients return to daily activities immediately following their Bellafill treatment. Temporary side effects may include:


  • Redness

  • Swelling

  • Tenderness

  • Bruising or itching at the injection site


These typically resolve within a few days. Rarely, delayed reactions such as small lumps or bumps may occur and should be evaluated by your provider.


Safety & Long-Term Outcomes

Bellafill has been extensively studied and shown to be safe and effective:


  • Backed by a five-year clinical study demonstrating long-term safety for nasolabial folds.

  • Low incidence of severe side effects.

  • Cannot be dissolved like hyaluronic acid fillers, making proper candidacy essential.


At Summerlin Dermatology, our experienced injectors carefully evaluate each patient to ensure safe, natural, and lasting results.
