Q: Dr. Eppley, can you remove Bellafill from the cheeks? I had Bellafill injected and the injector put it in the cheeks which I didn’t ask for. I wanted tear troughs only. They look really off, it was put in my medial and lateral cheek. One doctor said it can’t be removed from these areas, but I refuse to believe nobody can help.
A:There is no effective method to remove the PMMA micropheres in an area like the cheeks. Excision is the only method for acrylic particle removal and that is certainly not going to be done in the cheek area without considerable external scarring.
