Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay Selects Artefill to Meet Growing Patient
Demand for a Longer Lasting Dermal Filler
Artefill Proven to Deliver Patients a Solution for Younger, Natural and
Smoother Looking Skin
TAMPA, Fla., July 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Jeffrey A. Hunt, D.O., R.V.S. and Medical
Director at the Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay has selected Artefill, the
first and only FDA-approved microsphere-enhanced collagen filler for the
correction of smile lines, to treat patients who are looking for a longer
lasting dermal filler. Dr. Hunt has been an avid Artefill user the past
several years due to its proven success and effectiveness for the correction
of wrinkles.
Dr. Jeffrey Hunt., Medical Director, said, "We finally have what our patients
have been asking for: a very long-lasting, easy to administer, facial filler.
No more 'in between stages' as the filler is disappearing. Artefill is very
cost-effective when you consider its longevity, and the results have been
impressive."
This simple, in-office procedure takes approximately fifteen minutes to
complete. A patient is injected with Artefill similar to other dermal fillers
with the key difference being its lasting effect. The unique microspheres in
Artefill are not absorbed by the body and therefore provide the support the
skin needs for long lasting natural feeling results. This is different from
temporary dermal fillers that are made of different kinds of natural or
synthetic materials that are completely absorbed by the body over time and
require repeat injections to maintain wrinkle correction. A skin test is
required prior to treatment or approximately four (4) weeks ahead of time, to
ensure a patient is not allergic to the collagen or anesthetic in Artefill.
Artefill is only offered by a select group of physicians in Florida and is not
available at all physician offices. Dr. Hunt is one of the company trained
and select few company sponsored physicians who has the skills and experience
needed to administer the product.
A 43-year old female patient of the Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay said,
"I would highly recommend Artefill -- more so than any of the other fillers
I've tried -- due to the long-lasting effect it has. For me, that's the
value. I used to be injected with another filler every 4 to 6 months but have
absolutely loved the results of the Artefill injections around my nose and
mouth. I would also recommend being injected by Dr. Hunt or Nurse
Practitioner Kristen Walsh because it's important to go to someone who knows
what they're doing. I drive all the way from Valrico because I love the care
and results I get at the Vein & Cosmetic Center of Tampa Bay."
