For Facial Wrinkles "I went for Botox and lip filler and got talked into Bellafill. I am having an autoimmune reaction. There is uneven swelling months later, and my cheeks are red. I look like a chipmunk! My lip has a big lump. Lovely! Plus, I talk weird. I'm so unhappy and frustrated."

For Facial Wrinkles "Although marketed as a 5-year filler, please be informed that this product is 100% permanent. In my case, it caused an inflammatory response of the tissues, causing swelling, redness, and lumpiness. It can also lead to nodules and granulomas. These adverse events are impossible to resolve and require surgical excision. Finding a specialist to perform the procedure is near impossible, as no physician wants to deal with these unfortunate outcomes. I am yet to find a solution for my issues. Please stay away."

For Facial Wrinkles "I'm in a nightmare. Bellafill is the devil. Over a year ago, I was injected with 1 syringe of Bellafill on each side of my cheeks. I was told by the doctor who injected it that it will last up to 5 years. I never liked the look of it, since I have a skinny face and large cheeks, but I figured out that it would go away. About 2 months ago, I was injected with Voluma on my lower face and nasolabial folds to balance out my face. Three days after, my cheeks became red with a burning sensation, and when I smile, I look like a chipmunk!!! with 2 ridiculous round balls on my face. Also, my cheeks can become aggravated easily if it's hot or if I rub my face with a towel. I also noticed that my cheeks became bigger in size, and from reading online, I understand that Bellafill is permanent and also stimulates collagen, which makes my cheeks grow. Will my cheeks continue to grow forever??? Is there any safe way to reverse the Bellafill?"
