Artefill: Part 2

Where are Artefill injections done?

Artefill injections are done in an office and do not take more than 30 minutes. The formulation of Artefill does contain a local anesthetic so there is less pain during the injection.

Are the injections painful?

Yes. Many consumers claim it hurts like hell. Try pricking your lips with a sharp needle- this is exactly what you will feel.

What are immediate side effects of Artefill?

After the procedure, most people develop some degree of swelling and redness. These side effects usually disappear over the next 24-48 hours. One can use make- up or camouflage creams to cover the redness in the meantime.

How many sessions are needed?

You can rest assured, plastic surgeons are like car mechanics, and nothing is ever accomplished in one session. Everyone is told to enroll for many sessions (more to do with money than anything else)

When do i see results?

The effects of Artefill are rather slow. Once the side effects disappear, most people will see less wrinkles and fine lines in about 4-6 weeks. Many people see no change.

When can i go back to work?

Depending on the amount injected and where, most people can resume their normal lifestyle in 24-72 hours. After Artefill, it is highly recommend that one wear a sunscreen when going out.

Is Artefill permanent?

No only herpes is permanent. Artefill will at best last 12-18 months and touch up are required every year or two.
