Bellafill® is approved by Health Canada and indicated for the correction of nasolabial folds. Patients who have had a positive reaction to the optional Bellafill Skin Test, have a history of severe allergies, have known bovine collagen allergies, are allergic to lidocaine, have bleeding disorders or are prone to thick scar formation and/or excessive scarring should not receive Bellafill. The safety of Bellafill for use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or in patients under 21 has not been established. Following treatment of Bellafill you may experience temporary swelling, redness, pain, bruising, lumps/bumps, itching, and discoloration at the treatment site. These side effects are usually temporary and typically resolve within 1–7 days. You may experience lumps/bumps/papules that occur more than one month after injection and may persist. Less common side effects include rash and itching more than 48 hours after treatment, persistent swelling or redness, lumps/bumps, acne, and increased sensitivity at treatment sites. Very rarely, granulomas may occur and may be treated by your licensed physician provider. Be sure to call your licensed provider immediately if you notice any unusual skin reactions around the treatment area. Based upon the U.S. 5-year Post-Approval Study on nasolabial folds with 1,008 patients, long-term safety of Bellafill for up to 5 years has been established.
