Dermal fillers are injectable gels used to restore lost volume, add definition, and soften folds in the face. Most fillers today are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance found naturally in the skin. The gel adds volume beneath the surface, so the change is visible right away.
At Luxe Forté Medical Spa in Cherry Creek, we’ll help you understand what fillers could do for your face. We’ll guide you through what you can expect, from choosing the areas to treat to caring for your skin afterward.

Dermal fillers can restore volume in the cheeks and midface and add definition to the chin and jawline. They can also soften nasolabial folds and marionette lines around the nose and mouth.
Planning Your Filler Treatment
Treatment areas and products will be confirmed during your consultation.
01
Your Treatment Areas
Fillers are commonly used in the cheeks, midface, chin, jawline, and the folds around the nose and mouth. We’ll look at your face as a whole, not only the line that bothers you. Restoring volume in one area can sometimes soften a fold in another.
02
Product Choice
Luxe Forté uses hyaluronic acid fillers from the Juvéderm and Restylane families, including Voluma, Vollure, Volux, Restylane Lyft, Defyne, and Contour. They differ in firmness and in how much lift they provide. Firmer gels are generally used to build structure in the cheeks, chin, and jawline. Softer gels suit folds and finer areas. We’ll explain which product we recommend for each area and why.
03
Treatment Timing
Swelling and bruising can take a week or more to settle. If you’re planning treatment before a wedding or another important event, schedule it two to three weeks ahead to leave time for a touch-up.
Dermal fillers may be worth considering when volume loss or deepening folds are changing how your face looks. You may be a candidate if you:
Have flattened cheeks, hollows, or deeper folds
Want more definition along your chin or jawline
Prefer improvement without surgery
Are comfortable with results that need maintenance
Are in good general health
We’ll review your medical history, medications, and any allergies to determine whether fillers are appropriate for you. Treatment is usually postponed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or when there is an active infection near the treatment area.
If lines from facial expressions are your main concern, a neuromodulator such as Botox may be a better fit. Our staff can help you select the treatment that is best for your needs.
Luxe Forté was created to bring more spa into the traditional medspa experience. We’ll give you time to talk through your goals, explain the treatment plan for each area, and check your comfort as we work. Before you leave, we’ll walk you through aftercare and when to come back for a follow-up.

You’ll see a change right away. The treated areas may look swollen or red and feel tender, and small bumps at injection points are common. A cold compress can help. Avoid pressing on or massaging the treated areas unless we ask you to.
First Few Days
Swelling usually peaks in the first 48 hours, then eases. Bruising can appear and may take a week or so to fade. Avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, and other heat exposure for 48 hours. Contact us right away for increasing pain, pale or dusky skin near the treated area, or any change in your vision.
About Two Weeks
Most swelling has resolved, and the filler has settled. This is when we can best assess your result. We’ll let you know if a touch-up would help with balance or symmetry.
Maintaining Results
Hyaluronic acid filler breaks down gradually. Areas that move more tend to need maintenance sooner. We’ll recommend maintenance treatments based on how your result holds, not on a fixed schedule.

Do fillers hurt?
Most clients feel pinching and pressure. Many fillers contain lidocaine, a local anesthetic, and we can also apply topical numbing to more sensitive areas. Tell your provider if you become uncomfortable so that we can pause or adjust.
How long do results last?
Most results last about 6 to 18 months. Some products used in the cheeks can last up to about two years, while areas with more movement may need maintenance sooner. The amount of filler used and how your body breaks it down also play a role.
Will my results look natural?
That depends on product choice, placement, and the amount used. We’ll plan treatment around your facial proportions and may suggest building gradually over more than one visit. Tell us during your consultation if you prefer a subtle change.
Can filler be dissolved?
Hyaluronic acid filler can usually be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase. Dissolving may take more than one session, and the enzyme carries its own risks, including allergic reaction. We’ll discuss this option if you’re unhappy with a result or a complication occurs.
What are the risks of dermal fillers?
Swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness, and small lumps are common and usually temporary. Uneven results, infection, and delayed swelling can also occur. Rarely, filler can block a blood vessel, which can damage the skin or, very rarely, cause vision loss. We’ll review your history and explain the warning signs to watch for after treatment.
How should I prepare?
Share your medication and supplement list with us, including blood thinners and fish oil. We may ask you to avoid alcohol and certain supplements for 24 hours before treatment. Mention any history of cold sores and any recent or upcoming dental work. Do not stop prescribed medication without your prescribing clinician’s guidance.
Can I combine fillers with other treatments?
Yes. Fillers are commonly paired with neuromodulators such as Botox or Dysport, which relax the muscles behind expression lines. Fillers can also be combined with peels or laser treatments, but these need careful spacing. We’ll recommend a sequence and schedule based on the treatments you want to receive.
