The average cost per syringe of hyaluronic acid filler in the U.S. is $684 ± $178 according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. More experienced providers typically charge 20-40% more but have significantly lower complication rates (ASPS 2022 report).
Follow these steps to estimate the cost of your lip filler procedure:
All estimates are based on American Society of Plastic Surgeons data, published price ranges, and market surveys. This is for educational purposes only and does not replace a consultation with a licensed provider.
Most first-time patients get 0.5 to 1.0ml of lip filler. More experienced patients seeking fuller results or those getting touch-ups may use 1.5–2.0ml. The optimal amount depends on your natural lip size, desired fullness, and specific aesthetic goals. Starting conservatively (0.5-1ml) is often recommended for first-time patients to see how the lips respond and how you like the results before considering additional volume.
The average cost per milliliter (ml) of lip filler ranges from $500–$850 in the United States. Premium brands like Juvederm Volbella or Voluma typically cost at the higher end of this range, while older or generic hyaluronic acid fillers may be less expensive. Geographic location significantly impacts pricing - expect to pay 30-40% more in major metropolitan areas compared to rural locations. Most providers charge by the syringe (typically 1ml) rather than partial amounts.
Yes, the type of injector significantly affects pricing. Board-certified plastic surgeons and dermatologists typically charge 20-40% more than nurse practitioners or physician assistants. Celebrity injectors or specialists with extensive experience may charge premium rates that are 2-3 times the average cost. While medical credentials impact price, the injector's experience level and reputation with lip augmentation procedures specifically are often more important factors in both pricing and results quality.
Not necessarily. Whether 1ml is appropriate for your first lip filler treatment depends on your natural lip size, facial proportions, and aesthetic goals. For patients with naturally thin lips seeking moderate enhancement, 1ml is often an appropriate starting point. For those wanting very subtle results or with naturally full lips seeking minor definition, 0.5ml may be sufficient. Your provider should assess your unique anatomy and desired outcome to recommend the right volume. Starting conservatively is generally recommended if you're unsure.
Yes, the price estimates in this calculator are based on United States national averages from 2023-2024 data. Regional price variations within the U.S. can be significant, with costs in New York or Los Angeles typically 20-30% higher than the national average. If you're outside the U.S., prices may differ substantially - European prices are often comparable or slightly lower, while prices in countries like South Korea or Thailand might be 30-50% lower than U.S. rates. Always research local pricing in your specific area.
