Belotero Balance For Tear Trough Injection
Belotero Balance is especially useful for treating hollows under the eye, sometimes referred to as the tear trough. Treating the tear trough with fillers can be challenging. When most hyaluronic acid fillers are injected too superficially, the filler can be seen beneath the skin with a characteristic bluish hue. This is especially of concern in the tear trough area, since the overlying skin is thin. Belotero Balance does not have this drawback. Even when injected relatively superficially, it can be made to disperse through the skin with light pressure. Belotero Balance therefore does not appear blue beneath the skin. Juvederm Volbella can similarly be used for tear trough injecitons.
Injecting the tear trough is also more prone to bruising than other areas of dermal filler injection. The tear trough can be injected with Belotero Filler using a blunt-tipped cannula. In this technique, a spot approximately 2 cm beneath the area to be injected is marked and injected with a small amount of lidocaine. A small puncture is made with a needle and then the blunt-tipped cannula is threaded to the tear trough and the filler injected. Because the cannula is blunt, it is less likely to cause any bleeding and bruising. In this technique, a certain amount of precision in location is sacrificed for the reduced trauma and bruising that results from injecting filler through a cannula. Once Belotero Balance is injected into the tear trough, it can be gently massaged to spread it evenly.
Because Belotero Balance is a hyaluronic acid filler, it can always be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase, should the results not be as expected.
Belotero Balance For Superficial Lines And Wrinkles
Belotero Balance is also well-suited to inject superficial lines and wrinkles for which other fillers can be too thick, and would appear blue beneath the skin. Belotero Balance can be injected into superficial lines, either through threading or serial puncture, and then spread through the skin by rolling a cotton swab over the treated area.
