Dermal fillers in Fresno: cheeks, chin, jawline, temples and smile lines

Fillers restore the structure that softens with time: a little lift in the cheeks, a stronger chin, a cleaner jawline, fuller temples. Planned for balance by nurse practitioner Araceli Huerta, APRN, so you look rested, not “done.”

Our approach

Balance over volume

As we age, the face loses volume and bone support in predictable places: the cheeks flatten, the temples hollow, the jawline softens and folds deepen around the mouth. Chasing each line with filler often leads to a heavy, overfilled look.

Araceli looks at the whole face first. Often a small amount of support in the cheeks or chin does more for smile lines and jowls than filling the lines directly. The result: a face that looks like yours, a few years more rested.

The fillers we use are hyaluronic acid (HA), a gel that can be dissolved if needed. Results vary.

Areas

Where filler helps

One strong plan, area by area. Each section can be combined; most people treat one or two areas per visit.

01

Cheeks

Restores lift and contour to the mid-face, which can also soften smile lines and under-eye hollowness.

02

Chin

Adds projection and length for better profile balance, and can make the jawline look sharper.

03

Jawline

Defines the edge of the jaw from chin to angle for a cleaner, more sculpted line.

04

Temples

Fills hollow temples that can make the face look tired or older.

05

Smile lines

Softens nasolabial folds from nose to mouth, often combined with cheek support.

06

Lips

Hydration, definition and soft volume.

How much dermal fillers cost

Filler is priced per syringe, and the number of syringes depends on the areas and how much structure you need. Cheeks often take one to two syringes; chin and jawline can take more. This month’s special is shown on this page and on our specials page, and your exact plan and price are confirmed at your free consultation.

How long filler lasts

Most HA fillers last around 9 to 18 months depending on the product, the area (areas that move less hold filler longer) and your metabolism. Results vary.

Filler for mature skin

With mature skin the priority is structure and skin quality rather than filling every line. Support in the cheeks and temples, a modest amount at the jawline and smoother skin from treatments like Opus Plasma or microneedling usually look more natural together than a lot of filler alone. For significant skin laxity, filler has limits, and Araceli will say so.

Downtime and bruising

Expect some swelling for a few days and possibly bruising, especially in the first 48 hours. Most people return to work the same or next day. Plan treatment at least two weeks before a big event.

Is filler reversible?

HA filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed, and Araceli offers it: see filler dissolving. Treatment around blood vessels carries rare but serious risks, which is why anatomy knowledge and careful technique matter; you’ll review risks at your consultation. Looking for gradual collagen support rather than gel? Ask about Sculptra.

Thinking about a longer-lasting change? For lifting that filler can’t provide, surgical options are available with Dr. John F. Burnett, MD, in the same suite.

How much do 2 syringes of dermal filler cost?

Filler is priced per syringe; see this month’s special, which includes savings on each additional syringe. Your exact plan and price are set at your free consultation.

How long does dermal filler last?

Usually around 9 to 18 months depending on the product and area. Results vary.

Which filler area makes the biggest difference: cheeks, chin or jawline?

It depends on your face. Many people see the most change from cheek or chin support because it improves the whole lower face. Araceli will show you where it would help most.

Can cheek filler soften smile lines (nasolabial folds)?

Often, yes. Restoring cheek support can lift and soften the folds, sometimes combined with a small amount directly in the line.

How do you approach filler for mature skin?

Structure first (cheeks, temples, chin) with modest amounts, often combined with skin treatments, rather than filling each line.

Is filler reversible?

Yes. Hyaluronic-acid filler can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed, which Araceli offers. Filler dissolving.

How much downtime or bruising should I expect?

Some swelling for a few days and possible bruising. Most people return to normal activities the same or next day.
