Douglas Hamilton M.D. has used Artefill or Artecoll in FDA clinical trials, at his Beverly Hills & Woodland Hills, California offices, to treat deep wrinkles, depressions under the eyes and depressed acne scars. Composed of PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylate), lidocaine, and bovine collagen, Artefill or Artecoll can eliminate unsightly lines and wrinkles, leaving the skin looking younger, radiant, and revitalized for many years. Effects look extremely natural. There is immediate improvement as the area treated is raised to about normal skin level. Generally, there is virtually no discomfort at all at the time of the treatment, since it is mixed with an anesthetic. The procedure is typically done in 2 stages spaced 3 months apart.
Dr. Hamilton treated the first patient in the United States with Artecoll and has the largest series of treated patients in the nation. In 2000, Dr. Hamilton also published the first report in a medical journal, Cosmetic Dermatology, about the treatment of patients with this filler. He gave the first major addresses in 1999 & 2000 to the American Academy of Dermatology in New Orleans & San Francisco at national meetings. These meetings are the largest meetings of dermatologists in the world.
Dr. Hamilton is an Assistant Clinical Professor of Dermatology at UCLA School of Medicine.
