Bellafill to Replace ArteFill as New Brand
San Diego, CA - Dec. 1, 2014 - Suneva Medical, Inc., a privately-held aesthetics company, today announced that ArteFill, a dermal filler, has been rebranded as Bellafill in the U.S. "We feel that the brand Bellafill better embodies the transformational outcomes this unique product can provide to our customers and their patients," said Suneva Medical's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Nicholas L. Teti, Jr. "In addition, Suneva will build and invest in Bellafill to increase awareness for the new brand." Bellafill is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the correction of facial wrinkles known as nasolabial folds, or smile lines. Proven safe and effective, the dermal filler is comprised of 80 percent purified bovine collagen with 20 percent polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, and lidocaine. In addition to immediately adding volume to smooth away smile lines, Bellafill® helps skin re-create its own firmer structure for beautiful, younger looking skin and lasting results.1,2.
