Facial Fillers in Puerto Vallarta
Hyaluronic Acid: immediate volume, contouring, and smoothness
A premium in-office treatment designed to hydrate, restore lost volume in the cheeks or under-eye area, and sculpt the lips with absolute precision and reversibility.
What are Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers?
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers are biocompatible, fully absorbable gels indicated to restore the tridimensional volume of the face.
Our philosophy prioritizes a harmonious and subtle facial structure. We do not create exaggerated or artificial volume. Dr. Uriel Muñoz performs a facial proportion analysis (Golden Ratio) to identify areas with deficient structural support. He then applies the gel using safe, blunt-tip microcannulas, which minimizes bruising and ensures smooth tissue integration.
In addition to restoring volume, hyaluronic acid attracts water into the deep layers of the dermis, providing intense hydration and a visibly smoother skin texture.
What it improves
- ✓Immediate volume restoration in the cheeks, under-eye area, and sunken temples
- ✓Enhanced lip volume, contouring, and symmetry
- ✓Smoothing of nasolabial folds and marionette lines
What it does not address
- •Softening expression lines caused by muscle movement (this requires Botox)
- •Severe sagging or laxity of the lower jawline (requires surgical lift)
- •Permanent results (the product is gradually absorbed by the body)
Common Treatment Areas
Hyaluronic acid allows for targeted facial rejuvenation and enhancement:
Volume & Contouring
Defines the Cupid's bow, adds symmetrical volume, and hydrates lip tissue for a plump, natural appearance.
Cheeks & Under-Eye Area
Refills tired, hollow under-eye areas and lifts the cheeks to restore a youthful facial triangle.
Chin & Jawline
Projects weak chins and defines the jawline angle to structure and bring balance to the profile.
You may be a candidate if...
- ✓You experience loss of facial volume or prominent under-eye hollows due to aging or weight loss.
- ✓You desire fuller, well-defined, and aesthetically enhanced lips.
- ✓You want to smooth deep creases around the mouth immediately and reversibly.
- ✓You want immediate, in-office results without undergoing surgery.
Alternatives should be considered if...
- •You have severe skin sagging in the neck and jawline; a surgical facelift may be required.
- •You want permanent volume enhancement; dermal fillers are gradually absorbed by the body.
- •You have a history of severe allergies to hyaluronic acid or active skin infections on the face.
Designing Your Treatment Plan
A clinical evaluation is essential. We analyze your facial bony support, natural asymmetries, and select the ideal density and number of syringes of hyaluronic acid for your structure.
We assess your profile and frontal facial proportions to identify the most effective injection points.
We choose high-density gels for the cheeks and chin, and soft, flexible gels for the lips and under-eye area to prevent lumps.
We often recommend a gradual approach over two sessions to avoid over-saturating the tissues.

Understanding the Cost of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
The cost of hyaluronic acid treatment varies and cannot be generalized. The pricing depends on the density of the product and the number of syringes required for your specific needs.
During your in-office evaluation, Dr. Uriel Muñoz will assess your anatomy and recommend the appropriate gel type and quantity. The final cost depends on the following factors:
- •Number of syringes (1ml vials) required to achieve the desired volume.
- •Gel density and cross-linking technology (e.g., under-eye vs. cheeks).
- •The specific brand and internationally certified manufacturer.
- •The use of specialized safety instruments in-office (like microcannulas).
