Artefill®

Designed to treat the smile lines we all get around our mouths as we age, ArteFill® is a solution containing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, purified bovine collagen, and a small amount of anesthetic (lidocaine). The combination enables the product to adhere to your body's own collagen, teaming with it to form firmer foundation tissues underneath your skin. Once wrinkled or even scarred, your surface skin lies flat and smooth again.

We'll need less than an hour of your time for facial rejuvenation in our Cleveland or Canton offices. ArteFill® is injected following a light anesthetic, and your doctor will mold the product with his fingertips to distribute it properly under the skin.

Since the effects of the filler are instantaneous, you'll be able to fine-tune your results immediately. ArteFill® is FDA-approved for the treatment of smile lines. You'll need a simple skin test prior to your treatment to ensure you're not allergic to collagen or lidocaine. The majority of patients have no trouble with the injections; a few report minor bruising and swelling that lasts a few hours or, at most, a couple of days. Most people return to their regular activities immediately following treatment, looking fresher and younger.

Like other injectable fillers, ArteFill® treatment can be combined with a facelift, Eyelid Lift or other surgical procedure for more extensive improvement. But if the combination of instant rejuvenation, long-lasting results, and no downtime sounds compelling to you, come in and find out more about ArteFill® today.
