Artefill Long Lasting Fillers
Discover ArteFill, the first and only FDA-approved non-resorbable injectable wrinkle filler for the correction of facial wrinkles known as smile lines.
Finally, there's a simple, in-office procedure that answers the demand for immediate, enduring wrinkle correction.
If you have previously used temporary dermal fillers such as Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse and Sculptra, then you know they are eventually absorbed by the body and require frequent repeat injections to maintain correction.
ArteFill is different. The unique PMMA microspheres in ArteFill are not absorbed by the body and provide the permanent support your skin needs for long-lasting wrinkle correction. Research has shown that Artefill Fillers can last 5 years or more.
Why ArteFill?
ArteFill is the first and only FDA-approved non-resorbable wrinkle filler for the correction of smile lines.
- Immediate, visible results with no down time
- 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 1 or 2 treatments
ArteFill is a dual-acting injectable wrinkle filler.
The secret is in its patented formula, which contains 20% ArteFill Precision-Filtered Microspheres (made of PMMA, the same material used for dozens of medical implants over the last 50 years) and 80% ArteFill Purified Bovine Collagen gel with lidocaine, an anesthetic.
First, ArteFill visibly corrects the wrinkle. Then the microspheres provide the permanent support your skin needs to correct the wrinkle and prevent further wrinkling.
Where the results of temporary fillers end, the enduring benefits of ArteFill continue.
Because Artefill is a bovine derivative, a skin test needs to be performed one month prior to the procedure. Historically, less than 1% of people have a reaction to bovine products. Once we are certain that there are no reactions, then the procedure is ready to be performed by Dr. Vo.
