Knowing the cost early helps you decide whether fillers fit your budget at all.
Getting a filler price you can compare
The most reliable way to learn the cost is a quote for the exact treatment you are considering, set down on paper, so you can hold it up against your budget.
Why two filler quotes can differ
Quotes are easier to compare when each one answers the same questions:
- Which product is used, and how much of it is in the quote?
- Which areas are being treated?
- Is the consultation free, or does it cost extra?
- Are follow-up visits or touch-ups included?
- What happens if you want to start with less?
Price is only half of a comparison, so read a little about the product too. A national society for plastic surgeons has a page on dermal fillers, and the FDA keeps a page on FDA-approved dermal fillers. Both help you decide what else a quote should tell you.
Lining up quotes side by side
Collect two or three quotes and lay them side by side. Ask each provider to explain any gap. A federal health agency also has an overview of dermal fillers that is easy to read while you compare. If cost matters to you, start at the smaller end of what is offered, and do not feel pressure to decide at the visit.
A real quote comes after a real visit
An actual quote can only come from a licensed clinician after seeing you.
