How does BELOTERO® BALANCE work?
The hyaluronic acid in BELOTERO® dermal fillers binds with water in the skin, subtly filling in wrinkles and lines by providing volume. Lidocaine can induce local anesthesia through the inhibition of voltage-gated sodium channels and alleviate injection-related pain and skin discomfort. BELOTERO seamlessly incorporates into the skin, providing long-lasting effects and natural-looking treatment results.
According to Merz Aesthetics, BELOTERO’s distinctive manufacturing process, known as CPM® technology, results in varying densities of hyaluronic acid (HA), creating a blend of high and low-density zones. This innovative approach enables the gel to mimic tissue behavior, ensuring optimal integration into the surrounding tissue.
What are the ingredients of BELOTERO® BALANCE?
The enhancement BELOTERO BALANCE brings comes from the potent combination of ingredients in its formulation. This aesthetic skin treatment capitalizes on these components to deliver optimal outcomes.

Cross-linked sodium hyaluronate (22.5 mg/mL)
3.0 mg lidocaine hydrochloride (BELOTERO® BALANCE w/lidocaine only)
Phosphate buffer

How long do the treatment results last?
Upon application, this injectable filler immediately smooths lines and wrinkles, such as vertical lip lines above and around the lips and under-eye hollows. Furthermore, BELOTERO® treatment results usually last six months. However, this may vary depending on various patient-related factors.
What is the expected recovery time for my patients?
When administered by licensed and qualified aesthetic healthcare professionals, individuals can ensure safe and effective treatment outcomes. Moreover, due to its minimally invasive nature, BELOTERO injection generally requires no downtime.
What are some important safety tips when using this hyaluronic acid filler?
It is highly recommended that all interested individuals consult with their reputable healthcare professionals to discuss their goals, preferences, and suitability for BELOTERO BALANCE. This consultation should also cover the safety precautions associated with this injectable dermal filler treatment.

Avoid administering into any areas with cutaneous problems of an infectious/inflammatory type (e.g., herpes and acne).
