What Makes a Good Candidate?

- Marionette lines
- Nasolabial folds
- Cheekbones
- Tear troughs
- Temples
- Tail of the Eyebrow
- Lip volumization
- Chin enhancement
These are just some of the areas that doctors have targeted with Belotero Intense. The lips and chin, for example, are prime areas for increasing volume, which this product also excels at. All the other areas mentioned are some of the more common parts of the face where deep lines and wrinkles can be found. The solution makes use of a balanced formula to provide the optimal level of elasticity for the patient, making the aforementioned lines fade and some to actually disappear.
How Does Belotero Intense Work?
Belotero Intense is made up of cross-linked sodium hyaluronate at 25.5mg/ml and a phosphate buffer of pH7 SQP. Don’t let the seemingly lacking number of ingredients fool you, as this is all that is needed for the product to do its job. Merz Aesthetics has long realized that the way to healthy, younger-looking skin is to achieve that perfect balance of elasticity and cohesivity, and with Belotero Intense, they’ve made it so that not only will it give patients that optimal level of elasticity, but is also geared towards the more heavy-duty jobs of clearing out the deeper lines on the face. The efficacy of the formulation is also well-documented as a study of 149 patients was done and by using the Investigator assessed Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale, and 89.9% of patients achieved said improvement immediately post-injection.
Treatment Details

Afterwards, the area in need of correction must be targeted and possibly marked. Afterwards, disinfection of the area is performed, and then injection with a thin gauge needle. After the injection, the doctor will massage the area treated in order to ensure proper and even spread of the solution into the target area.
How Long Does Belotero Intense Last?
For increased lip volume and the filling in of severe wrinkles and lines, Belotero Intense has shown to be effective for up to one year. However, this will depend on the lifestyle and physiology of the patient, and the doctor will recommend any future re-treatments or maintenance sessions as needed in order to prolong the effects of the solution.
