About the Treatment

What Are
Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that restore lost volume, smooth deeper lines, and redefine facial contours — addressing the structural changes that happen as we age, not just the surface symptoms. Unlike neurotoxins, which relax muscles, fillers physically restore what time has displaced.

At Body Balance Medical, all filler treatments are performed by Teresa Hernandez, MSN FNP-BC — a board-certified nurse practitioner whose approach is grounded in facial anatomy and guided by one principle: you should look like yourself, not like you've had work done.

We use only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers with established safety profiles. Because HA fillers are fully reversible with hyaluronidase, your safety is never a variable. Teresa will not place more than what is clinically appropriate, and every treatment begins with an honest assessment of what will and won't help your goals.

Treatment Areas

Where Fillers
Transform

Hyaluronic acid fillers are among the most versatile tools in aesthetic medicine. Each area requires a different technique, depth, and product selection — which is why expertise matters more than volume.

Most Requested
Lips

Define the vermilion border, add volume, balance upper and lower proportions, and smooth vertical lip lines. From the most subtle definition to more dramatic fullness — tailored precisely to your vision and face.

Products Juvederm Ultra XC, Restylane Kysse
Duration 6–12 months
Cheeks

Restore youthful midface volume, lift the lower face, and create elegant contour. Cheek filler is often the single most impactful treatment for overall facial rejuvenation — lifting the entire face by addressing the foundation.

Products Juvederm Voluma, Restylane Lyft, Restylane Contour
Duration 18–24 months
Chin

Balance the profile, project and define the chin, and improve facial harmony from both the front and side. Chin filler is popular with both men and women — one of the highest-return single treatment areas for overall facial proportion.

Products Juvederm Volux
Duration 12–18 months
Jawline

Create a defined, structured jawline, address early jowling, and improve the overall facial silhouette. A sought-after treatment for men and women alike — often combined with chin filler for a comprehensive lower face result.

Products Juvederm Volux, Radiesse
Duration 12–18 months
Tear Troughs

Address under-eye hollowing and shadowing that makes you look perpetually tired regardless of how much rest you've had. A technically demanding, high-reward treatment when placed by an experienced injector with precise anatomical knowledge.

Products Restylane-L, Restylane Eyelight
Duration 9–18 months
Nasolabial & Marionette

Soften smile lines and the downward pull at the mouth corners for a more rested, approachable expression. These lines deepen with age and volume loss — filler addresses the cause, not just the appearance, by restoring what's been lost.

Products Juvederm Ultra XC, Radiesse, Belotero
Duration 9–15 months

Lip filler is currently featured in our monthly promotions — Juvederm Ultra XC and Restylane Kysse are both available. Check current offers before booking.

Our Approach

Less Is More —
The Art of Natural

Teresa's philosophy is rooted in facial anatomy and restraint. Every syringe is placed with intention, and every result is measured against one standard: does this person look naturally beautiful, or do they look like they've had work done?

"Fillers done well are invisible — you simply look like the best version of yourself, a few years younger."

We use only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid fillers with established safety profiles. HA fillers are fully reversible with hyaluronidase, which means your safety is never a trade-off. Teresa will assess your face honestly and will recommend only what will genuinely help — nothing more.

Looking for longer-lasting volume restoration? Teresa also offers Sculptra and collagen stimulators — biostimulatory injectables that build your own collagen over time for a different category of result.

Teresa Hernandez

MSN, FNP-BC · Lead Injector · Biote-Certified · Body Balance Medical

Teresa Hernandez is a board-certified family nurse practitioner and Body Balance Medical's lead aesthetic injector. She brings a deep understanding of facial anatomy to every filler appointment — assessing structure, volume distribution, and asymmetry before recommending a single syringe.

Her filler philosophy is consistent: natural results come from correct placement at the correct depth, not from volume. Teresa will not overfill, and she will tell you honestly when a different treatment — or no treatment — would serve your goals better.

As a Biote-certified provider in hormone optimization, Teresa also understands how hormonal changes and aging interact — giving her clinical context that many purely cosmetic injectors don't have. It's one of the advantages of having your aesthetics and wellness at the same practice.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Don't see your question? Ask us directly ↓
Will filler make me look different, overdone, or unnatural? +

Not with proper technique and appropriate volume. Overdone filler results — the "pillow face" or unnatural puffiness — come from too much product placed in the wrong planes. Teresa's approach prioritizes correct anatomical placement at the correct depth. The result should be that people notice you look great, not that you've had something done. She will never pressure you to use more product than you need, and will tell you honestly when less is more.

How long do fillers actually last? +

Duration varies significantly by area, product, and individual metabolism. Lip filler typically lasts 6–12 months; cheek filler (Voluma) can last 18–24 months; chin and jawline treatments fall somewhere in between. The numbers on product labeling reflect clinical study results — individual experience varies. Patients with higher metabolic rates or who exercise intensely often metabolize filler faster. Teresa will give you an honest expectation during your consultation.

Does filler hurt? +

Most filler products contain lidocaine, which numbs the area during injection — discomfort typically decreases significantly after the first few injections. For more sensitive areas like the lips, topical numbing cream is applied beforehand. Most patients find filler more comfortable than they expected. You may feel pressure, mild stinging, or brief sharp sensation at injection points, but the overall experience is generally well-tolerated.

What is the downtime and recovery like? +

Minimal, but not zero. Swelling and mild tenderness in treated areas is normal for 24–72 hours, particularly with lip filler which tends to swell more than other areas. Bruising is possible at injection sites and typically resolves within 5–10 days. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and blood thinners for 24 hours before and after your appointment to minimize bruising risk.

Can fillers be combined with neurotoxins or other treatments? +

Yes — and many of the most comprehensive, natural-looking results come from combining treatments. Neurotoxins address dynamic lines caused by muscle movement; fillers restore volume and smooth static lines that remain at rest. Many patients receive both in the same appointment. Teresa will assess whether combination treatment makes sense based on your anatomy and goals, and will never recommend more than what's clinically appropriate for your face.

What if I don't like my results? +

Hyaluronic acid filler is fully reversible with hyaluronidase — an enzyme that dissolves HA filler quickly and safely. This is one of the most important safety advantages of HA fillers over other injectable options. If you're unhappy with your results or experience a complication, Teresa can dissolve the filler. This is a real clinical capability, not just a reassurance talking point — it's one reason we choose to work exclusively with HA formulations.
