Belotero® in Charleston, SC

The wrinkles and folds around the nose and mouth seem to get more pronounced with age. Port City Plastic Surgery’s, Dr. Brian G. Widenhouse, a board-certified plastic surgeon, uses Belotero Balance® to plump these areas creating a smoother complexion and younger looking appearance on people living in and around Charleston, Daniel Island, Summerville SUand Mount Pleasant, SC.

What is Belotero Balance®?

Belotero Balance® is a dermal filler developed to mold to the individual contours of a person’s face. It contains hyaluronic acid (HA) so that when injected, this filler combines with the skin to soften fine lines, wrinkles, and folds around the nose and mouth to create a naturally smooth complexion and appearance.

Belotero Balance® is unique in that it is strong enough to treat deeper wrinkles and folds, and at the same time, delicate enough to fill in the vertical lines around the mouth and contours of the lips as well as the area underneath the eyes that may become slightly hollow. On top of this, once it is injected, it instantly fills in the wrinkles and folds by adding volume.

How Much Does Belotero Balance® Cost in Charleston?

The cost of Belotero Balance® is different with each patient depending on where you have injections and how many injections are needed to achieve your desired look. Additionally, if you have other treatments at the same time that may affect the cost. We can go over the cost as well as our payment and financing options during a consultation with Dr. Widenhouse.

Who is the Ideal Candidate for Belotero Balance®?

What Do I Do to Prepare for Belotero Balance®?

Belotero Balance® is like any other dermal filler in that the only thing that should be done is to stop taking any blood-thinning medications and supplements a week before your treatments if possible to reduce or prevent bruising at the injection site.

What Should I Expect the Day of Belotero Balance® Treatments?

Belotero Balance® is simply injected into the targeted area of the face with a very fine gauge needle. The number of injections depends on the area(s) treated and the extent of the aging process in those areas. The treatments are not painful and come with very little discomfort. If necessary, we can apply a numbing cream to ensure the treatment is painless.

What to Expect After Belotero Balance®

As with most fillers, there is no downtime with Belotero Balance®. It is possible to return to normal activities immediately after each treatment. There may be some slight swelling or redness at the injection site, but this resolves itself quickly.

When Can I Expect to See the Results of Belotero Balance®?

Unlike other dermal fillers, the results from Belotero Balance® are immediate and last about six months or so. To maintain the excellent results from Belotero, it is important to keep up with treatments on a regular basis to ensure your complexion stays smooth and you keep looking younger.
