What is Belotero?
Belotero is a versatile prescription injectable designed to smooth out those noticeable lines and wrinkles, particularly around the nose and mouth. It's also effective in adding subtle volume to cheeks and lips and filling the under-eye hollows that become more pronounced with age. The key to Belotero's effectiveness is its main ingredient, hyaluronic acid, naturally found in the body. This makes it well-suited for creating natural-looking results.

How to Prepare for Your Belotero Filler
During Your Belotero Procedure
At Impressions Face + Body, we ensure that your Belotero treatment is transformative and a comfortable and swift experience. The entire procedure, from beginning to end, typically spans just about an hour and fifteen minutes. We prioritize your comfort; hence, we apply topical anesthetics to your skin, minimizing discomfort during the treatment.
Once the anesthetic has effectively numbed the area, the journey to your enhanced beauty begins. Our specialists will administer the Belotero filler with precision and care using fine gauge needles. This gel-like substance, designed for subtlety and effectiveness, is gently injected into the skin, sculpting and revitalizing from within.
The results are immediate, bringing a visible enhancement to your skin's texture and appearance.
Belotero Aftercare & Recovery Timeline
Belotero treatments at our clinic are designed for your lifestyle, requiring minimal to no downtime. Most of our clients find themselves ready to return to their daily activities just minutes after the procedure, embracing the ease and efficiency of their transformation.
While the recovery process is remarkably swift, we advise a brief pause on certain activities to ensure optimal results. For about 24 hours post-treatment, we recommend avoiding strenuous activities, direct sun exposure, and touching or pressing the treated area. Also, it's best to refrain from applying makeup or consuming alcohol during this period. These simple precautions help in achieving the best possible outcome.
Some clients may notice mild discomfort or swelling around the injection site, which is a typical response and usually subsides within a few hours. Applying a cold pack to the area is an effective remedy for relief.
Am I a Good Candidate for Belotero?
Belotero is most effective for those experiencing fine lines or a loss of volume under the eyes in the specific areas this treatment targets. Candidates must be in good overall physical health and non-smokers, clearly understanding the procedure and realistic expectations for the results.
Our commitment to your safety and satisfaction is paramount. Therefore, we advise that Belotero may not be suitable for individuals with severe allergies, particularly gram-positive bacterial proteins. Our expert team is here to guide you through this journey, ensuring that Belotero aligns perfectly with your needs and health profile as part of our dedication to providing personalized, professional care.
