In general, the costs of dermal fillers and implants used for facial augmentation and contouring will depend on the durability of the material and the skill required to insert it. The longer it lasts, the greater the cost per treatment. Surgical procedures are priced higher than non-surgical procedures. The following costs represent an average. Actual costs will vary depending on your location, doctor, demand, etcetera.

Temporary fillers that last one year or less include the collagen-based Zyderm, Zyplast, Cosmoderm, and Cosmoplast. They typically cost up to $500 per cc. Hyaluronic acid based fillers (like Restylane, Perlane, Hylaform, and Juvederm) and the synthetic material, Newfill can last twice as long as collagen and are priced up to $1000 per cc. Cymetra and Fascian are derived from human tissue and cost $500 to $1000 per cc, respectively.

Semi-permanent fillers include Radiance, Alloderm, or fat grafting. Radiance costs up to $1200 per cc. Alloderm is typically charged per procedure rather than by the amount of material used. A typical charge for Alloderm is $1000 pre treatment area (e.g. per lip or per nasolabial fold). Fat transfer fees vary from $1000 to $3000 or more, depending on the extent of the surgery and the surgeon's experience. Operating room and anesthesia fees may be additional.

Permanent injectable fillers like Artecoll, Aquamid, Isolagen, Silikon1000 and Silskin average around $1500 per cc. Permanent implants such as UltraSoft, Goretex, and Advanta used for lip augmentation and contouring require a minor surgical procedure. The surgeon's fee is typically around $1000 - $1500 per implant. Operating room and anesthesia fees may be additional.
