Medically reviewed by Susana Querido, MD – Triple Board-Certified in Family Medicine, Aesthetic Medicine, and Anti-Aging & Regenerative Medicine. Medical Director, Greenwich MD.
If you’re looking for dermal fillers in Stamford, CT, Greenwich MD offers something genuinely rare: a board-certified physician who personally performs every injection. Dr. Susana Querido — triple board-certified and the medical director of Greenwich MD — brings clinical precision and an aesthetic eye to every treatment, whether you’re addressing forehead lines, jaw tension, or trapezius slimming.
Our Stamford clinic sees patients from across Fairfield County, including Greenwich, Darien, New Canaan, Westport, and Norwalk. Most filler appointments take 30–60 minutes with minimal downtime. Results are visible immediately and last 6–24 months depending on the product and area.
What separates Greenwich MD from most Stamford filler providers isn’t one credential — it’s three. Dr. Querido holds board certifications in Family Medicine, Aesthetic Medicine, AND Anti-Aging & Regenerative Medicine. That combination means she evaluates your face from a whole-health perspective, not just an aesthetic one. She understands how your skin, muscles, hormones, and health history interact — and how that affects both the safety and longevity of filler results.
Triple Board Certification: Dr. Querido is board-certified in Family Medicine, Aesthetic Medicine, and Anti-Aging & Regenerative Medicine — a combination virtually unique in Stamford.
Her Practice, Her Standards: Greenwich MD is Dr. Querido’s own clinic. No franchise, no rotating staff. You see the same physician every visit, who knows your face and your goals.
Anatomy-First Technique: Every placement decision is based on your unique facial structure — muscle depth, movement patterns, and skin quality. Not a template.
Natural Results as the Standard: The goal is always to look refreshed, never treated. Dr. Querido’s approach preserves expression and movement in every outcome.
Filler pricing at Greenwich MD starts from $650 per syringe (HA fillers) and from $850 per vial (Sculptra or Radiesse). There is no minimum purchase and no booking fee. The number of syringes needed is discussed with you before treatment begins — no surprises.

1. Before You Arrive
When you book, the front desk notes your areas of concern. First-time patients receive a brief intake form covering medical history and any prior filler experience. No preparation is required on your end.
2. Consultation With Dr. Querido
Dr. Querido examines your facial anatomy, identifies which muscles are responsible for your concerns, and designs a placement plan specific to your face. She explains her dosing rationale and expected outcomes before any injection occurs. Most first visits include treatment on the same day.
3. Treatment
Injections take 15–30 minutes depending on how many areas are treated. A very fine needle is used to place micro-doses into the targeted muscles. Most patients find it entirely tolerable without numbing.
4. Aftercare & Results
Return to normal activity immediately. Avoid lying flat or vigorous exercise for 4 hours post-treatment. Results emerge within 3–7 days; full effect at 2 weeks. A complimentary 2-week check-in is available if any touch-up is needed.
Not all fillers are identical. Dr. Querido selects the right product based on treatment area, skin depth, and the result you’re looking for:
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Fillers (Juvéderm, Restylane): The most commonly used. HA is naturally found in the body — these fillers are soft, reversible with hyaluronidase, and ideal for lips, tear troughs, nasolabial folds, and subtle volume.
Sculptra (Poly-L-Lactic Acid): A biostimulator that builds your own collagen gradually over 3–6 months. Excellent for full-face volume restoration and facial rejuvenation. Results last up to 2 years. Not reversible — conservative dosing is essential.
Radiesse (Calcium Hydroxyapatite): Provides immediate lift and stimulates collagen. Preferred for jawline, chin, and hands. Not reversible — physician assessment is critical.
Dr. Querido will recommend the right product at your consultation based on your anatomy and goals.
The most common post-treatment effects are local and temporary: mild redness or swelling at the injection site (resolves within hours), occasional minor bruising (manageable with concealer), and a mild headache that sometimes follows forehead treatment (resolves within 48 hours). These are normal tissue responses to the needle, not signs of a problem.
Dr. Querido approaches risk reduction clinically, not cosmetically. She reviews your complete medical history and screens for contraindications before any treatment. Dosing and placement decisions are based on your individual muscle anatomy, not a standard protocol. Only FDA-approved, authentic filler products are used. Every injection follows sterile technique. Her physician-level understanding of neuromuscular anatomy means potential risks are anticipated and avoided, not reacted to after the fact.
Hyaluronic acid fillers have been FDA-approved since the early 2000s and have an extensive safety record. The most serious potential complication — vascular occlusion — is rare but requires immediate physician intervention. At Greenwich MD, Dr. Querido always keeps hyaluronidase on hand and has the medical training to recognize and treat vascular events. This is a physician-level skill that falls outside nursing scope of practice at most Stamford med spas.
Most filler injections in Stamford are administered by nurse practitioners or physician assistants, with a physician providing “medical direction” from a distance. At Greenwich MD, Dr. Querido is present, participates in your consultation, and personally performs every injection.
This isn’t a criticism of nurses — it’s a statement about what you’re choosing. Physician-administered fillers mean someone with full medical training is evaluating your anatomy, anticipating contraindications, and making real-time clinical decisions during treatment. That’s what Greenwich MD provides.

Filler pricing at Greenwich MD depends on the product and number of syringes required. Hyaluronic acid fillers start from $650 per syringe. Sculptra from $850 per vial. A precise estimate is provided at your complimentary consultation — no obligation to proceed.
Hyaluronic acid fillers typically last 6–18 months. Biostimulators like Sculptra can last up to 2 years. Lip fillers metabolize faster (6–12 months), while structural areas like cheeks and jawline hold results longer.
Most patients find fillers very tolerable. Dr. Querido applies topical numbing cream before treatment, and most filler products contain lidocaine within the formula. Most patients describe a brief pinch — not pain.
Botox relaxes muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles caused by movement. Dermal fillers add volume and structure beneath the skin to restore what time has taken away. Many patients benefit from both — Dr. Querido can advise the right approach during your consultation.
Hyaluronic acid fillers are fully reversible using hyaluronidase. Dr. Querido always keeps hyaluronidase on hand. Biostimulators like Sculptra and Radiesse are not reversible — which is why conservative dosing and physician-level assessment are essential.
This varies by person and area. Lip augmentation may require half to one syringe. Full facial rejuvenation may require 3–6 syringes over one or more sessions. Dr. Querido always starts conservatively — it’s always possible to add more at a follow-up.
At most Stamford med spas, fillers are administered by nurses or nurse practitioners — often with a physician supervising remotely. At Greenwich MD, Dr. Querido personally performs every injection. As a triple board-certified physician, she can recognize and immediately manage complications that fall outside nursing scope of practice.
Absolutely. Our Stamford clinic at 1351 Washington Blvd is 15 minutes from Greenwich via I-95. Many of our existing Greenwich patients continue to see Dr. Querido here. The drive is easy and parking is free.
