+ How much does Filler cost?

Because everyone’s needs are very different, and with such a wide variety of treatments involving filler, a personal consultation is the best way to establish cost. With that in mind, filler treatments start at $850 for a syringe. This cost not only reflects the price of the product, but also the skill, knowledge, and expertise of the medical injector. I do not price match.

Cheek Pop: $850-$2500 In the first appointment I generally start with 2 syringes, for many people 2 will achieve desired results, if maintaining your cheek filler you currently have 1 syringe is often sufficien. Some patient will need more depending on volume loss and desired results.)

Lip Filler: $850 (1 syringe, patients may desire two, I do 1 syringe at a time for lips, patients can come bacl in 4 weeks for another syringe)

Nasolabial Folds "Laugh Lines": $850

Marionette Lines/Corners of Mouth (Vertical folds between the chin and the lips: $850-$1400

Chin Filler: $850-1500 (1-2 syringes either same appointment or spaced 2-3 weeks apart to build)

Under Eye Filler: $850-$1200 (1-2 I always do 1 syringe at a time and can add more after 4-6 weeks if more correction is needed. Often times patients need to have cheek filler 1-2 syringes to support the tear trough either on the same day or prior to getting under eye filler)

Jawline Filler: Starting at: $1400-$2800

Lip Lines above lip: $850

Neck Line "Tech Neck" Filler: Starting at $850/syirnge (often times two syringes at seperate appointments is needed, in addition to a treatment of 20-40 units of botox to the neck for best results)

Earlobe Filler: $850

Hand Filler: $1400

+ When will I see results?

Results are visible immediately after treatment. The healing process then begins which involves swelling for about 3-7 days depending on the amount injected, area injected, and your body. The product then settles and you’ll enjoy your final results about 2-3 weeks after injections.

+ How long do results last?

Longevity differs from person to person and from treatment to treatment. Some people may metabolize the product faster than others. Longevity also has to do with product choice, area being treated, and the amount that was injected (or if you've had filler in the past and if you still have some of that filler). See below for average longevity based on treatment:

• Cheek Filler: 9-16 months

• Under Eye Filler: 6-16 months

• Lip Filler: 6-12 months

• Nasolabial Fold (Smile/Laugh Lines) Filler: 6-12 months

• Chin Augmentation: 9-14 months

• Hand Filler: 9-16 months

• Jawline Filler: 9-14 months

• Earlobe Filler: 9-16 months

• Temple Filler: 6-12 months

• Hand Filler: 9-16 months

• Sculptra: 2-3 years

+ How many treatments will I need?

Facial fillers are a temporary solution, and therefore to maintain results, treatments will need to be administered on a recurring basis (see longevity info above). All my treatments are customized based on your goals. I go based on the look we are creating together and have a more art like approach than an exact timeline of when you do a little more.involves injections of Hylenex®.

+ Will I need time to recover?

Bruising is possible, plan 2 weeks ahead of any events/vacations. Please give yourself a minimum of 2 weeks before any events or vacations in case of residual bruising and swelling.

Before any significant life events (like your wedding) please come for your filler appointment 6-10 weeks prior.

+ Who is a good candidate for dermal fillers?

The dermal fillers that are used in our practice have naturally-occurring ingredients such as hyaluronic acid. Therefore, there is no need for allergy testing before dermal filler treatment and most patients are excellent candidates for this cosmetic solution to aging and other facial concerns.

+ WHAT IF I'M NOT HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS AFTER FILLER INJECTIONS?

If you receive filler treatment with a hyaluronic acid product, such as Juvéderm or Restylane, you may have some or all of your filler dissolved if you are not satisfied with your results. Treatment to dissolve hyaluronic acid dermal fillers involves injections of Hylenex® an enzyme to dissolve the product. This is a great characteristics of the product and make them safer than some more permanent fillers that are on the market. Although it is very rare to want anything dissolved, most find that is is not permanent reassuring when beginning these treatments.

+ Can I Receive Filler and Botox at the Same Time?

Dermal fillers and Botox treatment can and often are administered during the same office visit. Because each product works differently in the skin, the two can be a powerful combination to achieve beautiful, natural-looking rejuvenation.

+ How should I prepare for my appointment?

• Please come to your consultation without makeup on.
• If interested in being treated with filler please avoid any dental work (including routine teeth cleanings) two weeks before, and please do not have any dental work planned for two weeks after. This is for filler not botox.
• Avoid the use of Aspirin, NSAIDS, Ginko Biloba, Garlic Supplements, Green Tea, Flax Oil, Cod Liver Oil, Vitamins A and E, and essential fatty acids for up to 1 week pre and post injection as they will increase your risk of bruising. (if cleared to do so by your medical provider)
• Try to avoid alcohol and caffeine 2 days prior to your appointment to minimize bruising
