ArteFill is the longest lasting injectable filler available in the Seattle area, promising results for a minimum of five years or longer.
Dr. Stacy uses ArteFill for deep nasolabial folds, also known as the "smile lines."
Because ArteFill is a collagen-based product, it does require a 30-day skin allergy test.
ArteFill is comprised of a mixture of tiny PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) microspheres suspended in a solution of purified collagen gel, and a small amount of lidocaine for patient comfort during injection.
