Dermal Fillers in Atlanta
Dr. Theresa Jarmuz believes in doing everything she can for her patients, and for herself, without surgery. For this reason, she has made the use of JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, and other dermal fillers and lip fillers in Atlanta a major part of her practice serving Buckhead, Vinings, Smyrna, and Brookhaven. Collagen, a naturally occurring substance that supports the skin and keeps it looking healthy, breaks down over time, causing facial wrinkling and hollowness. To replace lost collagen and even help the body replace its own natural collagen, injectable fillers can be used for a wide variety of purposes, from plumping lips to reducing wrinkles.

Popular Dermal Filler Atlanta Treatment Areas
Dermal fillers are versatile products that can provide a variety of improvements. Dr. Jarmuz uses fillers to correct signs of aging by addressing the following concerns:
Under Eyes (Tear Trough Filler)
This treatment uses hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers to restore volume beneath the eyes. Ideal for those experiencing under eye concerns due to aging or genetics, fillers offer a quick solution with minimal downtime. Tear trough filler reduces the appearance of:
- Under eye hollows
- Dark circles or shadows
- Fine lines
Marionette Lines
Dermal fillers restore volume and smooth the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down toward the chin. When the aging process results in a loss of skin elasticity, fillers reduce the appearance of marionette lines by addressing:
- Volume loss under the skin to smooth lines and folds
- Sagging in the lower face
- Wrinkles around the mouth
Smile Lines
Many patients wish to soften the appearance of smile lines, also known as nasolabial folds, caused by aging or repetitive facial expressions. Fillers target smile lines and restore your youthful appearance by reducing:
- Lines from the nose to the corners of the mouth
- Deep creases in the mid-face
- Wrinkles caused by smiling or laughing
Lip Lines
Dermal fillers effectively diminish the appearance of lip lines, also known as perioral lines or smoker’s lines. By restoring volume to the area, fillers smooth these lines and enhance overall lip contours for a more youthful, rejuvenated look. Fillers for lip lines target:
- Fine, vertical lines around the lips
- Wrinkles caused by repetitive lip movements
- Signs of aging around the mouth
Hollow Temples
When aging or weight loss creates the appearance of sunken temples, dermal fillers help restore lost volume to the upper face. They add fullness and support to improve facial harmony and enhance your youthful look. Specifically, fillers address the temple region by:
- Plumping and lifting the skin
- Smoothing the transition between the forehead and cheeks
- Improving facial balance and contours
Bony Hands
Bony hands result from lost volume that make veins and tendons appear more prominent, giving your hands a harsh, aged appearance. Fillers improve your concerns over bony hands by:
- Adding subtle fullness beneath the skin
- Improving skin texture
- Diminishing sings of aging
Other popular uses for dermal fillers include:
- Jawline contouring to sharpen and define your lower face and profile
- Liquid rhinoplasty to improve nasal appearance without surgery
- Liquid facelift (combined with BOTOX or another neuromodulator)
- Lip filler to plump, enhance, and define the lips
- Cheek filler to define your cheekbones
- Chin filler (chin augmentation)

Theresa M. Jarmuz, M.D.
Double Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Jarmuz customizes treatments to help women and men achieve their aesthetic goals, offering modern
techniques for both surgical and nonsurgical procedures.
Is a Liquid Rhinoplasty in Atlanta, GA, Right for You?
If you want a subtle improvement in the shape of your nose or you are not ready for surgery, Dr. Jarmuz can perform a liquid rhinoplasty using dermal fillers. This nonsurgical alternative to rhinoplasty can make limited enhancements to the nose’s bridge and tip with no downtime. Results are temporary, lasting from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the filler.
What Are Dermal Filler Treatments Like?
Dermal filler treatments are virtually painless and are performed right in our office. Dr. Jarmuz is one of the few facial plastic surgeons in the Atlanta area who uses a blunt-tip micro-cannula instead of a sharp needle during certain injectable procedures. Using a micro-cannula requires specialized training and helps limit the bruising and swelling that sometimes accompanies filler injections. It is especially useful when treating the areas under the eyes, called tear troughs, where Dr. Jarmuz can make a single injection rather than several.
After your injections, you may return to your normal activities right away and, with the exception of Sculptra Aesthetic, see results immediately. Occasionally, men and women will experience some swelling or bruising after their injection, but these will fade quickly.
Liquid Facelift and Liquid Rhinoplasty
Patients interested in enhancing and refreshing their facial features without surgery may choose a liquid facelift , which combines dermal fillers with neuromodulators, or a liquid rhinoplasty , which temporarily reshapes the nose using fillers. These treatments appeal to patients seeking subtle enhancements with minimal downtime.
Surgical & Nonsurgical Alternatives
In addition to dermal fillers for Atlanta patients, Dr. Jarmuz offers other nonsurgical procedures for the treatment of wrinkles, including: chemical peels, laser skin resurfacing and BOTOX® Cosmetic.
For more dramatic and longer-lasting results, Dr. Jarmuz performs surgical procedures such as brow lift, eyelid surgery, neck lift, and facelift for her Atlanta patients.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are dermal fillers better than BOTOX and Dysport?
Dermal fillers and neuromodulators like BOTOX are both cosmetic injectable products. They have different uses, so one type is not better than the other. Here is a brief comparison:
- Fillers rejuvenate and enhance areas by adding and replacing volume under the skin. These products are great for filling in facial folds and hollows around the eyes, enhancing the lips, and adding definition to areas like the cheeks, nose, chin, and jawline. Results are instant.
- Neuromodulators correct dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle contractions. They help people look refreshed and more youthful by smoothing out crow’s feet, frown lines between the eyebrows, and horizontal forehead creases. Results take a few days to become noticeable and gradually improve for about 10 days.
Results can be even more impressive when fillers and neuromodulator treatments are combined.
What’s the best dermal filler for the lipos?
Whether you’re specifically seeking the best lip injections or the best lip filler in Atlanta, overall, the right filler “for you” typically depends on your cosmetic goals and unique needs. Many patients benefit from enhancing different areas during the same appointment with a combination of fillers.
Can dermal fillers be dissolved?
Hyaluronidase injections can dissolve hyaluronic acid fillers, such as JUVÉDERM, Restylane, and RHA fillers. The injections take effect within about 24 to 48 hours but may require up to 2 weeks to dissolve the filler fully.
Does the treatment hurt?
By using micro-cannulas instead of sharp needles to inject fillers, Dr. Jarmuz minimizes discomfort. These products contain numbing medication to help make the treatment even more tolerable.
Can dermal filler be combined with other treatments?
Whether you’re interested in anti-aging or just looking better, you can often enhance your dermal filler results by combining your fillers with other treatments, such as:
Fillers also enhance the results of facial plastic surgery.
Are fillers worth it?
Dermal fillers are popular with women and men of all ages because they are safe, effective, and versatile and require no downtime. When performed by an experienced provider, most people consider filler treatments worth it.
