Disclaimer:
The effects of dermal fillers can vary depending on individual factors such as skin type, age, lifestyle, and the specific areas treated. While many patients achieve a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance, results are not guaranteed and may differ from person to person. Dermal fillers are temporary and typically last between 6 to 18 months, depending on the product used and the treatment area. Possible side effects include swelling, bruising, redness, and, in rare cases, infection or allergic reactions. It is crucial to have a detailed consultation with a qualified healthcare professional to assess your suitability for treatment and to discuss potential risks and benefits. Always adhere to post-treatment guidelines provided by your practitioner and report any unusual symptoms or concerns immediately.

What is Belotero Balance Dermal Filler?
Belotero Balance is an FDA-approved hyaluronic acid injectable filler manufactured by Merz Pharmaceuticals. What sets Belotero Balance apart is its unique creation process, known as the Cohesive Polydensified Matrix (CPM). This process produces a smooth, flexible hyaluronic acid gel that blends seamlessly with the skin's natural structure, effectively filling in etched facial wrinkles and fine lines. Belotero Balance is designed for use in the mid-dermis and is administered with an ultra-fine needle, making the procedure comfortable enough that anaesthetic is usually not required. As a hyaluronic acid dermal filler, Belotero naturally adds volume, smooths the skin's surface, and instantly enhances the skin's overall appearance. Its properties encourage immediate bonding with the skin, providing an ideal foundation for soft-tissue augmentation and rejuvenation.
What is Belotero Made Of?
Belotero is an injectable dermal filler with a hyaluronic acid base. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring component in the skin, providing essential hydration and contributing to a youthful appearance. However, as we age, the levels of hyaluronic acid in our skin diminish. The Belotero range includes various hyaluronic acid gels, each with different consistencies tailored for specific purposes—whether it's addressing under-eye bags, facial creases, restoring volume, or enhancing lips. When you consult with our team at Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we will work with you to determine the best combination of dermal fillers to meet your individual needs and goals.
What is Belotero Used For?
Belotero, like other popular dermal fillers such as Restylane and Juvederm, is composed of hyaluronic acid. However, Belotero Balance® is unique in its ability to adapt within the skin, offering soft and even correction. Its versatility makes it suitable for both deep treatment areas, like nasolabial folds (smile lines), and more delicate areas, such as vertical lip lines (also known as smoker’s lines) and under the eyes.
BELOTERO BALANCE® Dermal Filler Can Be Used In The Following Areas:
-
Smile Lines (Nasolabial Folds): Lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth.
-
Vertical Lip Lines: Thin lines that form above the upper lip.
-
Lips: For subtle lip augmentation.
-
Marionette Lines: Lines that extend from the corners of the mouth down toward the chin.
-
Corners of the Mouth: To address downturned corners that can give a frowning appearance.
-
Tear Trough (Under-Eye Area): To fill hollows.
-
Crow’s Feet: Fine lines around the eyes.
-
Frown Lines: Lines between the eyebrows.
What is the Process of Having Belotero Injections?
Before any cosmetic injectables treatment, a formal consultation is required. During this consultation, we will discuss your medical history, previous experience with dermal fillers, areas of concern, and establish a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs. Photos of the treatment area will be taken for your medical record and to assist in discussing your options. If dermal fillers are deemed the best treatment, the procedure may be carried out on the same day or scheduled for a later date, depending on your preferences and availability.
To minimise the risk of bruising at the injection sites, it’s recommended to stop taking blood thinners, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like Advil, Motrin, and Aleve, as well as multivitamins, herbal supplements, and fish oil one week before your scheduled treatment.
On the day of your treatment, a topical lidocaine cream is applied to the clean skin one hour before the procedure to numb the area and ensure comfort during injections. After the cream is removed and the skin is cleansed with alcohol, the dermal filler is injected into the designated areas, and the results are evaluated as the procedure is completed.
Immediately after the procedure, ice packs are applied to minimise any potential swelling. It is advised to avoid strenuous exercise, hot yoga, or saunas for 48 hours post-treatment to prevent further swelling or bruising. We typically schedule a follow-up two weeks after the injections to assess the results and determine if any additional touch-up is needed.
How Soon Will I See Results from Belotero Balance?
Belotero is designed to integrate into the skin quickly, with results visible immediately upon injection. This dermal filler plumps the skin and smooths fine lines and wrinkles right away, so you can expect to leave Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic with radiant, younger-looking skin. One potential side effect of any dermal filler, including Belotero, is localised swelling at the injection sites. Ice packs are applied to the treated area immediately after the injections to minimise swelling. Any residual swelling following Belotero injections can take up to two weeks to completely resolve.
Side Effects of Belotero Injectable Filler
Clinical studies have shown Belotero to be a safe and effective hyaluronic acid filler. Potential side effects include:
-
Bruising at the injection site
-
Swelling
-
Redness
-
Itching
-
Tenderness
-
Numbness
These side effects are typically mild and resolve on their own within two weeks of the injections. Taking Arnika, an oral herbal supplement, for several days before and after your treatment can help prevent and heal any bruising. It’s also recommended to discontinue blood-thinning medications and supplements, such as Aspirin, Aleve, Motrin, multivitamins, fish oil, and vitamin E, for two weeks before your treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.
What is the Recovery Time for Belotero Treatment?
One of the greatest benefits of Belotero injections for facial rejuvenation is the minimal downtime. Most patients experience little to no downtime and can return to their normal daily activities immediately after their visit. If you experience any mild swelling or bruising, these symptoms typically resolve within 2 to 10 days of treatment.
To minimise the risk of bruising and swelling, it’s recommended to stop taking blood-thinning medications and supplements, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and vitamin E, two weeks before your cosmetic injections. Patients prone to bruising may also benefit from taking Arnika, an oral herbal supplement, for several days before and after the injections. Arnika has been shown to help prevent and treat bruising. After your treatment, we will provide you with all the necessary aftercare information to achieve and maintain optimal cosmetic results.
Who is a Good Candidate for Belotero Balance?
The ideal candidate for Belotero Balance is a healthy individual who wishes to soften and diminish fine lines around the mouth, under the eyes, around the smile lines, and on the lips. If you’re looking for facial rejuvenation and a natural, youthful appearance without downtime or surgery, Belotero Balance could be the right choice for you.
Who Should Not Be Treated with Belotero?
Belotero should not be used by anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding, or undergoing immunotherapy. Additionally, those with allergies to lidocaine or hyaluronic acid, or who have an autoimmune disease, should avoid Belotero cosmetic injections.
Is Belotero Balance Good for the Eyes? Which Belotero is Best for Tear Troughs?
Yes! Belotero Balance is particularly well-suited for the delicate under-eye area. Its formulation—a thin and flexible gel—eliminates the risk of the Tyndall effect, which can cause a bluish hue in areas with thin skin. Belotero is an excellent choice for filling in the tear trough and treating under-eye hollows, providing natural-looking results without unwanted side effects.
Belotero Dermal Fillers for Undereye Hollows
Belotero Balance is an extremely popular dermal filler for treating the sensitive areas under the eyes due to its thinness and flexibility. Its formulation eliminates the risk of a side effect known as the Tyndall effect, which can cause a blue tint to the skin after filler injections. The Tyndall effect occurs when light reflects off particles suspended in the gel filler, often when a filler is injected too superficially, the area is overfilled, or the skin is very thin. If the Tyndall effect does occur, it can be corrected by injecting hyaluronidase, a filler dissolver, into the area.
Belotero was specifically designed to eliminate the risk of the Tyndall effect. Since the gel does not contain suspended particles, there is no potential for the skin to develop a blue hue. When used for the delicate under-eye area, Belotero provides smoother skin and a more youthful complexion without the concern of dark circles or a hollowed appearance.
Is Belotero Filler Good for Lips?
Yes! Belotero Balance is versatile and can be used to smooth vertical lines around the mouth and soften smile lines, as well as to achieve subtle, natural lip augmentation. Injecting Belotero Balance into the lips is a great way to discreetly enhance lip volume. It can be an excellent alternative to other hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane or Juvederm. During your consultation at Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we will assess your facial structure and discuss your desired results to determine which hyaluronic acid filler is best suited for you.
Can I Combine Belotero with Other Dermal Fillers and Botox?
Absolutely. At Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we often create customised treatment plans that incorporate various hyaluronic acid dermal fillers and neurotoxins like Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin. While Botox is ideal for softening dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions, Belotero smooths fine lines and wrinkles that form independently of active expressions. Combining these treatments allows for comprehensive facial rejuvenation without surgery or downtime, providing natural and stunning results.
What Can You Expect After Belotero Treatment?
After Belotero Balance injections, you can expect your complexion to appear smoother, with a noticeable reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and folds. The results include a refreshed, rejuvenated, and more youthful look. Belotero Balance is particularly effective for treating smile lines, vertical lip lines, and the under-eye area, offering soft correction with immediate and even results. The product integrates quickly into the skin, delivering natural, smooth, and beautiful outcomes. Belotero Balance is clinically proven to last up to 6 months. For enhanced results, we often combine Belotero injections with other minimally invasive treatments like Botox, Juvederm, or Restylane.
How Long Does Belotero Last?
Results from Belotero Balance injections typically last up to 6 months, though the duration can vary depending on individual metabolism. For best results, it’s recommended to have Belotero Balance injections twice a year for maintenance.
How to Dissolve Belotero Filler?
If you are unhappy with your dermal filler results, we can reverse the effects of Belotero injections by using hyaluronidase. Hyaluronidase is an enzyme solution available under several brand names, including Hydase, Hylenex, Amphadase, and Vitrase. It dissolves hyaluronic acid fillers fairly quickly, usually within 48 hours of injection. Hyaluronidase can be used to correct misplaced filler or an improper injection technique, ensuring you achieve your desired cosmetic results.
Belotero Before and After
We invite you to view our patient gallery to see before and after photos of Belotero treatments and learn more about our approach to achieving facial rejuvenation through cosmetic injections. At Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we uphold a ‘less is more’ philosophy, taking a conservative approach to dermal fillers to avoid overfilling. Two weeks after your treatment, we re-evaluate the results to determine if a touch-up is needed, ensuring natural, beautiful outcomes and a more youthful appearance.
Who Makes Belotero?
Belotero is produced by Merz Aesthetics, a pharmaceutical company that also manufactures the popular dermal filler Radiesse and the neuromodulator Xeomin. The Belotero range includes seven distinct dermal fillers, each designed for specific purposes. Among the most popular are Belotero Balance, Belotero Soft, and Belotero Volume. Belotero Balance is ideal for reducing moderate lines, such as nasolabial folds, perioral lines, marionette lines, and tear troughs, and can also be used for subtle lip enhancement. Belotero Soft is perfect for fine lines, such as mild perioral lines, while Belotero Volume is suited for restoring volume in the cheeks, chin, temples, and jawline. When you consult with an expert injector at Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we will work with you to determine the best combination of dermal fillers for your specific skin concerns and cosmetic goals.
Is Belotero a Good Dermal Filler?
Belotero is widely chosen by practitioners for the under-eye area and lips due to its smooth gel consistency, which integrates easily into the skin. This consistency makes it less likely to cause side effects such as lumps or nodules. Belotero Balance is particularly unique as it is created using the Cohesive Polydensified Matrix (CPM) process, producing a smooth, flexible hyaluronic acid gel that blends seamlessly into the skin's natural structure. This makes it an excellent option for treating under-eye hollows and ultra-fine lines around the mouth. Belotero can also be combined with other cosmetic injectables like Juvederm, Sculptra, Restylane, and Botox for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. For safety and the best results, it’s important to choose an experienced professional for your dermal filler injections.
What is Belotero Revive?
Belotero Revive is designed to revitalise the complexion by correcting dehydration, improving skin elasticity, and eliminating fine lines. It is often used to treat prematurely photodamaged skin. Belotero Revive can be combined with other fillers in the Belotero range to achieve a comprehensive facial rejuvenation, giving you a more youthful appearance.
Is Belotero FDA-Approved?
Yes, Belotero is FDA-approved for the improvement of the infraorbital hollow (IOH) in adults aged 21 and older. Expert injectors, such as those at Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, have the experience needed to use Belotero safely and effectively, even in off-label areas. Off-label use simply means using a product in a way not specifically approved by the FDA, which is common among expert injectors for various cosmetic treatments.
Is Belotero Balance Safe?
Yes, Belotero Balance was approved by the FDA in 2011 and is considered a safe and effective dermal filler. The product was extensively researched and tested in clinical trials to ensure patient safety. However, it is not recommended for patients with a history of anaphylaxis or known allergies to gram-positive bacterial proteins.
Are Belotero Injections Painful?
No, Belotero injections are generally painless. The filler is injected with an ultra-fine needle, and a topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure to ensure comfort. Additionally, Belotero contains lidocaine, a local anaesthetic, to further minimise discomfort during the injections.
How Much Does Belotero Cost?
The cost of Belotero Balance injections can vary depending on the injector's experience, the amount of product used, and the location of the clinic. Generally, treatment with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon is more expensive than at a spa or with a nurse injector. It’s crucial to choose an injector with the expertise and experience to deliver your desired results safely.
During your consultation at Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we will discuss your cosmetic goals and determine the best treatment plan for you. The price of your treatment will be outlined during this consultation.
Is Belotero Balance Better Than Juvederm Dermal Fillers?
Each hyaluronic acid filler has unique properties that make it suitable for specific areas. Denser fillers like Juvederm are better for providing support in areas with skin laxity and for restoring volume, while lighter, more flexible fillers like Belotero are ideal for smoothing fine lines. The texture of Belotero Balance makes it less likely to cause puffiness or swelling, making it a great choice for the under-eye area.
Juvederm is also a highly popular dermal filler, particularly in the United States, with various products available for different needs. At Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, we use both Juvederm and Belotero Balance depending on your individual concerns, desired results, and facial structure.
How Does Restylane Compare to Belotero for Fine-Line Reduction?
The Restylane family of fillers includes products of varying densities, allowing for the correction of both deep and fine lines. Restylane is often used for deeper facial wrinkles, while Belotero Balance is preferred for treating very fine lines around the mouth and under the eyes. During your consultation, we will determine which filler is best suited to address your specific concerns, ensuring you achieve the best possible results.
Does Belotero Stimulate Collagen?
Yes, dermal filler injections, including Belotero, have been shown to stimulate new collagen production in the treatment area with subsequent sessions. While the hyaluronic acid gel gradually diminishes over 6-12 months, the collagen produced as a result of the injections provides long-lasting benefits, contributing to a firmer, more youthful appearance.
How Do You Choose the Best Cosmetic Dermal Filler Injector?
Choosing the right injector is crucial for achieving the best cosmetic results. Look for an experienced and qualified professional who understands your goals and can help you become the best version of yourself. At Dunedin Medical & Aesthetics Clinic, our expert injectors have extensive experience in providing dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation, and we work with each patient to create a customised treatment plan that meets their needs.

Why Choose Dermal Fillers for Cheek Enhancement?
Cheek augmentation has become increasingly popular in recent years as it offers an elegant, non-surgical way to restore lost volume to the face, address sagging skin, and replace the natural collagen lost through the ageing process. In the past, facial plastic surgery was the only option for achieving fuller cheeks. However, the long recovery times, bruising, sedation, sutures, and limited mobility post-surgery have led dermatologists and patients to prefer non-invasive alternatives, such as cheek enhancement with hyaluronic acid fillers. Dermal fillers are injected into the soft tissue, providing immediate results for those looking to enhance their cheekbones or replenish lost volume in the midface without the need for invasive surgery or downtime.
An added benefit of cheek augmentation with hyaluronic acid dermal fillers is that the results are semi-permanent and reversible. If a patient is not satisfied with the outcome of a hyaluronic acid filler treatment, synthetic hyaluronidase can be applied to the area. Hyaluronidase is a naturally occurring enzyme in the body that breaks down hyaluronic acid and can be used to effectively “undo” the effects of the filler in as little as one treatment. On the other hand, cheek augmentation surgery with implants carries additional risks and side effects, especially if the implants need to be removed due to unsatisfactory results or unwanted effects. For those seeking a safe, quick, and easy cheek enhancement that doesn’t require downtime, our facial filler solutions are an ideal choice.
