Face Fillers: Your Ultimate Guide to Treatments and Costs

“A more complex tear trough could cost $1,500 or more,” Dr. Weiser says.

Laugh Lines

Alternately called smoker's lines, laugh lines, or perioral rhytids, these are the little vertical lines and creases caused by repetitive movement of the mouth. "By placing small amounts of filler into the vermilion border [the delineation of your lip] and also into the skin between your lips and nose, the lines and creases can be softened or eliminated," says Dr. Weiser.

You may not need a lot of product here, but due to the complexity of the procedure, the costs will likely be high. Dr. Ourian says the treatment starts around $3,000, and the filler that lasts one to three years.

Of course, pricing depends on which filler your provider chooses to use, but for the lip and perioral area in particular, Juvéderm Volbella and Restylane Kysse are both FDA-approved.

There's also a class of fillers called RHAs, or resilient hyaluronic acid. These treat static wrinkles (the ones that are etched into your skin when it's still) as well as dynamic wrinkles (those that appear when you're making an expression). They're still HA-based, so can be reversed if needed, but they have more of a gel texture. Revance RHA Redensity has been FDA-approved for treating fine lines and wrinkles in this area.

So-called liquid nose jobs are gaining popularity on Instagram for their ability to temporarily reshape your nose without requiring you to go under the knife. Although the procedure is non-invasive, it's an off-label use of filler and requires someone who specializes in the technique, similar to undereye filler.

“This is one of the highest risk areas for filler injection and should always be performed by a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon,” Dr. Weiser says. When performed by a highly skilled physician, liquid rhinoplasty can create many of the same effects as a surgical rhinoplasty, but the results will be temporary. “It can be done to soften a dorsal hump, lift the nasal tip, or to straighten the line of your nose,” Dr. Weiser says.

Dr. Ourian, who's shared videos of the procedure on Instagram, estimates the cost to range from $3,900 to $8,900. At other less popular (but still reputable) clinics, costs can start around $1,000. As for the amount of time it takes? 15 minutes.

Dr. Engelman told us about one of the newest treatments to be granted FDA approval: Skinvive by Juvéderm is “the first and only hyaluronic acid (HA) intradermal microdroplet injection for skin smoothness that is available in the U.S.,” she says. This is to replicate the hydrated look and smooth feel that comes along with facial fillers, just without the super plumped-up appearance. That's not to say there won't be some subtle plumping, though; you will notice that the overall smoothing effect helps to iron out fine lines and wrinkles in the most natural-looking way. Dr. Engelman says results can last about six months with optimal injection and care.
