Dermal Fillers
Designing a smile already means thinking about how your lips, cheeks, and jawline frame it, so it’s a natural extension for that same eye to look at the face surrounding your smile too. Dermal fillers restore lost volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance natural facial contours without surgery or downtime, using the same precision and attention to balance that goes into cosmetic dentistry at Emerald Dental. Emerald Dental offers dermal fillers at our Lakewood, CO office.

Smile Fact
Enamel is the hardest substance in the human body, yet it cannot repair itself once it is lost.
What Are Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that restore volume beneath the skin’s surface, typically made from hyaluronic acid, a substance your body naturally produces to keep skin hydrated and firm. As natural hyaluronic acid levels decline with age, skin loses fullness and fine lines and wrinkles become more noticeable. Placed carefully in key areas like the cheeks, lips, and jawline, fillers smooth lines and restore volume for a soft, natural result rather than an obviously “done” look.
How Dermal Filler Treatment Works
Consultation.
You’ll discuss your goals, review your medical history, and have your facial structure assessed to determine which filler and placement will deliver the most natural result.
Personalized Treatment Plan.
A custom filler plan is created for you, outlining which areas will be treated, how much product will be used, and what to expect during and after treatment.
Enjoy Your Results.
Results are visible immediately after treatment, restoring soft, youthful volume and smoothing fine lines for a refreshed, balanced look.
Benefits of Dermal Fillers
The appeal of dermal fillers isn’t a dramatic transformation, it’s a natural, refreshed version of your own face.

Who Dermal Fillers Are For
Dermal fillers work well for anyone wanting to refresh their appearance without surgery or extensive recovery time. Good candidates typically notice volume loss in the cheeks, under-eyes, or around the mouth, fine lines or folds around the nose and lips, thinning or uneven lips, or areas of the face that feel sunken or out of balance. During your consultation, your provider assesses your skin and goals directly and designs a plan around what actually fits your face, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Why Emerald Dental for Dermal Fillers
Cosmetic dentistry already means evaluating how a smile balances with the rest of the face, so precise injections in the cheeks, lips, or jawline fall naturally under that same expertise rather than being a separate skill entirely. Every treatment plan is built around your specific facial anatomy and goals, using FDA-approved fillers chosen for safety and natural-looking results.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do dermal fillers work?
Dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid, a substance your body already produces, to restore lost volume beneath the skin and smooth fine lines. As it’s placed in targeted areas, it plumps and supports the skin from underneath, rather than sitting on the surface.
Are dermal fillers painful?
Most patients feel only mild discomfort during injections, and a topical numbing option is typically available to keep the process comfortable. Any tenderness at the injection site usually fades within a day or two.
How soon will I see results, and how long do they last?
Results are visible immediately after treatment, since fillers add volume the moment they’re placed. Depending on the area treated and the specific filler used, results commonly last several months to over a year before a touch-up is needed.
Who should avoid dermal fillers?
Fillers aren’t recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for patients with certain allergies or active skin infections in the treatment area. Your provider will review your medical history during your consultation to confirm you’re a good candidate.
Will dermal fillers make me look overdone?
Not when the goal is balance rather than volume for its own sake, the aim is a refreshed, natural look, not a dramatically different one. Your provider assesses your facial proportions before treatment so results enhance your features rather than exaggerate them.
