As we age, our skin naturally loses volume, elasticity, and hydration—often leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging. Fortunately, modern cosmetic dermatology offers effective, non-surgical solutions to restore youthful contours and smooth skin. At Dermatology and Skin Cancer Consultants, LLC, we proudly offer dermal fillers to patients in Jackson and Humboldt, TN, helping you look and feel your best with subtle, natural-looking results.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to add volume, smooth wrinkles, and enhance facial features. Most fillers contain hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the body that binds moisture and promotes skin hydration.
Common treatment areas include:
- Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
- Marionette lines (lines from the corners of the mouth)
- Cheeks and cheekbones
- Lips and lip borders
- Under-eye hollows
- Chin and jawline contouring
Fillers offer immediate results with minimal downtime, making them a popular choice for patients seeking a refreshed, more youthful appearance.
What to Expect During Your Filler Appointment
Your treatment at Dermatology and Skin Cancer Consultants begins with a personalized consultation. Our experienced providers will assess your facial structure, discuss your aesthetic goals, and recommend the most appropriate filler product and placement technique.
The injection process typically takes less than 30 minutes. Most patients report only mild discomfort, and numbing agents may be used to enhance your comfort. You may experience slight swelling or bruising, but these side effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few days.
Results can last from 6 months to over a year, depending on the type of filler used and the treatment area.

ABOUT DERMAL FILLERS
Dermal fillers, like JUVÉDERM®, are gel-like substances injected beneath the skin to enhance facial volume. Most injectors also use JUVÉDERM to smooth lines and soften creases or enhance facial contours in the cheeks, chin, and jawline. JUVÉDERM is a synthetic hyaluronic acid, which we produce naturally. As we age, our bodies produce less and less hyaluronic acid. We then see a gradual loss of volume because of this decline in production. That’s where injections like JUVÉDERM serve as a filler for areas affected by volume loss.
Dermal fillers can be used for a variety of other cosmetic concerns:
- Smooth out lines around nose and mouth (a.k.a. marionette lines, smile lines, and parentheses)
- Enhance & restore volume to sunken cheeks or temples
- Diminish vertical lip lines
- Plump & enhance the lips
- Smooth out a chin crease
- Improve symmetry among facial features
When selecting a provider for injectable treatments, give your decision the same level of care and scrutiny that you would when considering a surgical procedure. Nonsurgical filler is still a medical procedure that requires specific training, knowledge, and skill to ensure safe treatment and natural-looking results. Choose a provider with extensive knowledge of facial anatomy, a well-developed aesthetic eye, and a surgeon’s skill and precision.
Our board-certified dermatologist and UCLA fellowship-trained cosmetic injector and surgeon, Dr. Dafnis Carranza, offers the type of skill and training most can only find on the West Coast. She has the hands of a skilled surgeon, an eye for aesthetics, and a woman’s touch.
