Belotero Balance is a dermal filler that is specifically designed to address wrinkles, lines and folds in the skin. It is made up of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps to maintain hydration and volume in the skin. This hyaluronic acid gel is injected into the targeted areas, filling in the wrinkles and lines and plumping loose skin to create a smoother and more youthful appearance.
The unique formulation of Belotero allows it to fully integrate with the skin, resulting in natural-looking results. It has a soft and flexible consistency, making it particularly effective for treating fine lines and delicate areas of the face. Whether you are concerned about nasolabial folds, marionette lines or vertical lip lines, Belotero can help to smooth and soften these signs of aging.
One of the key advantages of Belotero is its ability to adapt to the natural movements of your face, allowing for a more natural and expressive look. It provides subtle enhancement and rejuvenation, without compromising your facial expressions or creating an overfilled appearance. With Belotero, you can enjoy smoother, more youthful skin and regain your confidence in your appearance.

What to Expect from Your Belotero Session
When you choose Advanced Cosmetic Surgery for your Belotero treatment, you can expect a comprehensive and personalized experience from start to finish. It all begins with an initial consultation with one of our skilled and board-certified plastic surgeons. During this consultation, we will carefully assess your specific concerns and goals, and determine if Belotero is the right treatment for you. We will explain the procedure in detail, including the expected results, potential side effects, and any necessary preparations.
On the day of your Belotero treatment, our expert injectors will ensure your comfort by applying a topical numbing cream to the treatment area. Belotero is then carefully injected into the targeted areas using fine-gauge needles. The procedure is relatively quick and generally well-tolerated.
Recovery and aftercare
Following a filler treatment, you may experience some temporary swelling, redness, or bruising, but these effects are typically mild and subside within a few days.
Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to optimize your results and minimize any potential side effects. We may schedule a follow-up appointment to assess your progress and make any necessary adjustments. The results are long-lasting, typically lasting 6–12 months, depending on various factors such as the treatment area and individual metabolism.
Throughout your Belotero journey, our experienced team at Advanced Cosmetic Surgery will be there to support you every step of the way. We prioritize your safety, satisfaction, and overall well-being, and we are dedicated to providing you with exceptional care and natural-looking results.
Advanced Cosmetic Surgery Reviews
I have been seeing Dr. Felice for quite some time for my Botox injections. His attention to detail, and the way he achieves such natural looking results made me certain he was the surgeon for me when I got ready to have Upper Blepharoplasty. It was SO EASY! Under local, right in the office, and in an hour! I felt absolutely zero discomfort during the procedure and did not require pain medicine after. This was such a piece of cake! I’m 6 weeks out now, and my results are stunning! Truly! I am amazed and so pleased every time I look in the mirror. I feel so pretty!! ALSO, I can’t believe how much better I can see! Imagine everywhere you look is a 5x7 photo when everyone is seeing the 8x10 full frame! And now I do too! There’s so much blue sky up there! It’s crazy to me that I have thought for so many years that my eyelashes grew downward. Nope! It was actually my excess skin on the lid sitting down on them that pushed them downward. If you are considering this procedure, just do it! I am SO glad I did!
I had a full-face laser resurfacing done by Abby. I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, her care, and her kindness. My experience at Advanced Cosmetic Surgery has been excellent, and I have found all the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly.
Dr. Peter Felice and his team of support have been unbelievable throughout my process. Choosing to get plastic surgery of any kind is a big decision. I felt so supported, I was given excellent details on pre and post care, and I was treated with dignity and respect. My surgery went super smooth, and everyone on staff including my nurse and anesthesiologist were as superb as Dr. Felice. I cannot wait to see the full results, but most of all I’m so happy to be home with my family healing joyfully. 5 stars all the way every day to this team!
I’ve seen several people here and everyone of them were very nice and knowledgeable. This is the best place to be to get any kind of skin needs or any procedure done. They are all excellent at what they do.
Advanced Cosmetic Surgery is my go-to place, and NP Morgan is an absolute magician! I've been seeing her for over 2 years, and no one has ever come close to her skill with just a small amount of product. When my old friends see me, they can't even tell I've had work done, and they always ask for my secrets to staying so youthful. At first, I jokingly tell them it's JLo's Vaseline trick, but then I let them in on the real deal!My husband even jokes that kissing me now feels like he's dating a supermodel--he keeps looking around for the paparazzi! If you want to ditch those wrinkles without looking overdone, book an appointment with Morgan ASAP! Plus, she's super sweet, making the whole experience enjoyable and surprisingly minimally painful. Who knew looking fabulous could be this fun?

Ideal Candidates for Belotero
Good candidates for Belotero are men and women who:
- Are experiencing volume loss due to aging
- Have moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds
- Seek enhancement of facial features like the jawline or cheeks
- Are in good health with realistic expectations
However, this treatment is unsuitable for those who are pregnant or nursing, and those with severe allergies, particularly to gram-positive bacterial proteins.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Belotero have any side effects?
Belotero may cause temporary side effects like redness, swelling or bruising at the injection site.
How do I prepare for my Belotero session?
We recommend you avoid blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, for a few days prior to the treatment to reduce the risk of bruising. It is also important to inform your healthcare provider about any allergies or medical conditions you may have and to follow any specific instructions provided by them for optimal preparation.
Can I combine Belotero with another injectable like Botox?
Yes, it is possible to combine Belotero with Botox, as they target different concerns and can complement each other. Botox helps relax muscles to reduce wrinkles caused by facial expressions, while Belotero is a dermal filler used to add volume and smooth out lines and wrinkles. Combining these treatments can provide comprehensive results by addressing both dynamic and static wrinkles.
Can Belotero replace a facelift?
While Belotero can significantly improve signs of aging, it doesn’t provide the same dramatic or long-lasting results as a facelift. It’s ideal for those seeking non-surgical options for moderate aging signs. At your consultation, we’ll discuss whether temporary injectables like Belotero or plastic surgery would be most appropriate for your situation and goals.

- JUVEDERM: A suite of hyaluronic acid-based injectable fillers optimized for various purposes, including volume restoration, wrinkle correction and lip, cheek and jawline enhancement.

It is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres, which provide immediate results while also promoting long-term collagen growth. Radiesse is ideal for addressing smile lines, marionette lines, and other facial wrinkles.
- Restylane: Another injectable filler, Restylane utilizes hyaluronic acid to add volume, smooth out lines, and enhance facial contours. It is effective in treating nasolabial folds, lip lines, and restoring volume to areas like the cheeks and under the eyes.
- XEOMIN: Similar to Botox Cosmetic, Xeomin is a neurotoxin that relaxes muscles and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. It is specifically formulated to target frown lines between the eyebrows and offers a non-surgical alternative for a smoother, more youthful look.
- ZO 3-STEP CHEMICAL PEEL: This noninvasive chemical peel is a three-step process designed to exfoliate the skin, stimulate cellular renewal and improve the overall complexion. By gently resurfacing the skin, it effectively treats various concerns, including fine lines, uneven skin tone, acne and acne scars.
