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 and lip fillers a major part of her Atlanta 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.

Dermal Filler Options
Dr. Jarmuz offers a variety of dermal fillers, each formulated for specific improvements. Options include:
Restylane®
Made with hyaluronic acid, a substance produced naturally by your skin to add volume and moisture, Restylane can reduce wrinkles and add volume to facial features such as lips and cheeks. The results typically last between 2 to 9 months. Learn more about Restylane.
JUVÉDERM® Injectable Gel
Also made with hyaluronic acid, this smooth-consistency gel provides a very natural-looking result that lasts up to 1 year. JUVÉDERM is particularly effective at reducing the visibility of nasolabial folds, also referred to as “smile lines” or “parentheses.” JUVÉDERM XC provides volume enhancement (for wrinkles and lips) without the “ouch,” thanks to the addition of lidocaine. Learn more about JUVÉDERM.
JUVÉDERM VOLUMA® XC
VOLUMA was the first filler FDA approved to instantly add volume to the cheek area. It gives you a subtle lift, helping to restore contour and a more youthful profile for up to 2 years in patients over the age of 21. You should be able to resume your normal activities after 24 hours.
RHA® Collection
These fillers contain a patented resilient hyaluronic acid (RHA) formulated to ensure the face looks expressive and natural wherever it is used. Learn more about RHA fillers.
Sculptra® Aesthetic
Dr. Jarmuz is a National Trainer for Sculptra Aesthetic and is the #1 injector in Georgia. This injectable treatment is made with poly-L-lactic acid, a substance that actually stimulates collagen growth to minimize the visibility of smile lines, wrinkles on the sides of your mouth (marionette lines), and chin wrinkles. Sculptra Aesthetic works gradually after several injection sessions and can last up to 2 years, longer than most injectable treatments. Learn more about Sculptra Aesthetic.
RADIESSE®
RADIESSE, composed of calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) microspheres, is useful for filling deeper folds in the face and also for giving structure and volume to those areas that have been depleted. In addition, we can also use it to rejuvenate the back of the hands where aging skin may have been neglected in the past. RADIESSE has been shown to last at least a year and contributes to increased collagen within the deeper layers of the skin, allowing for long-lasting and natural results.
BELOTERO BALANCE®
BELOTERO is thinner than similar than other hyaluronic acid fillers and is especially useful for treating the thin, delicate lines that develop above and around the lips. The results can last for up to 6 months, depending on the treatment area, as well as other factors.
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.
Surgical & Nonsurgical Alternatives
In addition to dermal fillers, 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?
The best dermal filler 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.
