Benefits and Drawbacks of Prevelle Wrinkle Fillers


Advertisement

 

There are over a dozen wrinkle fillers available in the United States, and many of them are made with hyaluronic acid, a clear, gel-like substance that can help to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and produce natural-looking results. Prevelle is among the latest ‘next generation’ injectable fillers on the market, and is made only of hyaluronic acid.
 
The dermal filler is readily available at medical spas and cosmetic dermatology centers around the country and offers several benefits. However, there are some drawbacks to this filler. Here’s a close look at all of the pros and cons of the Prevelle wrinkle filler:

How Prevelle Works

Prevelle is an advanced dermal filler made entirely of purified hyaluronic acid. It can be administered to the face and neck area to make the skin appear smoother and more youthful, and works by filling in all fine lines and wrinkles, and plumps up areas of sagging. This dermal filler is designed specifically to treat delicate areas such as vertical lip lines, oral commmissures, fine lines around the eyes (preorbital lines), and lighter lines around the forehead.

Benefits of Prevelle Wrinkle Fillers

The Prevelle wrinkle filler is one of the latest skin rejuvenation treatments on the market, and offers a number of benefits. It is often marketed as a ‘lunch hour’ treatment because it takes only about 30 minutes to administer, and does not involve any downtime. Some of the other key benefits of Prevelle wrinkle fillers include:
 
  • Can be used on several areas of the face at once
  • No adverse side effects, as hyaluronic acid is already present in the body
  • Offers immediate results
  • Redness or swelling at the injection site typically resolve themselves within hours after the treatment
  • Patient can wear makeup after a treatment
  • Reduces the appearance of lines and sagging in even small, delicate areas

Drawbacks of Prevelle Wrinkle Fillers

While Prevelle wrinkle fillers offer a number of benefits for all skin types, there are some drawbacks to consider before investing in a treatment plan. Prevelle only offers temporary results because the hyaluronic acid is absorbed by the body after a few months. This means you will need to undergo touch up treatments at several intervals throughout the year in order to maintain results.
 
Another drawback of Prevelle is that it cannot fill out deeper grooves and facial lines around the forehead, nose and mouth. The injectable is designed primarily for treating light to moderate lines around the delicate areas of the face, so you may need to invest in another dermal filler such as Juvederm, Botox or Artefill, to get the results you want for deeper lines. Finally, some patients may experience swelling or bruising in the treatment area. While this does resolve itself over time, this may prevent you from attending a special event shortly after your treatment.
