The approximate injectables cost will be different for each person. Different doctors charge different fees based on their experience, reputation and expertise, and each patient had a different medical history that will require particular types of care.

However, as with a breast implant, a face lift, or a nose job, it is possible to give a general guideline, so long as you remember that your actual costs for a dermal filler will depend on your individual medical history and the specific cosmetic surgeon you choose.
The injectable dermal fillers are priced per syringe. There is a cost for the syringe, then an additional cost for the doctor’s expertise in injecting the contents of the syringe.
Collagen is the oldest and most tested type of collagen injectable dermal filler. It is effective at smoothing lines and wrinkles and filling in fold on the face, as well as filling scars and crows feet. For a single collagen treatment, you can expect to pay in the range of $250 to $400 for a single collagen injection. Many people have more than one syringe injected at each treatment, so the costs average $700 per collagen treatment. Keep in mind that there may be additional costs for any anesthetic, surgical facility, and prescription medication if needed for pain or infection control.
Evolence is a popular, newer version of collagen treatment. It is derived from porcine collagen, rather than bovine as is found in traditional collagen treatments. Porcine collagen is more closely aligned with human, therefore causes fewer problems with allergic reactions. The cost of a single Evolence syringe is approximately $500, making it more costly than the traditional collagen treatment.
Juvaderm is a new hyaluric acid dermal filler that has properties that make it smooth, natural and malleable finish to the skin. There are three formulations of Juvaderm, all for different layers of the face. The cost for Juvaderm depends not only on the cost of the physician and surgical center, but also depends on the formula used. A single syringe of Juvaderm will cost between $300 and $1,000, depending on these factors. It is often true that a person needs a second syringe to get the desired results.
Prevelle Silk is a low-concentration hyaluric acid dermal filler that is particularly easy to use, rarely has a side effect, and has a very quick recovery period. It generally lasts for a significantly shorter time than the other kinds of dermal filler treatments. The cost for Prevelle Silk is approximately $400 per injection. While that is more than some collagen injections, it is less than most hyaluric acid injections. This makes it popular with people who are considering whether or not to use dermal fillers or who want to try a look before making it more permanent.
Restylane is the final dermal filler considered in this look at the approximate injectables cost. Restylane is a highly versatile and effective form of hyaluric acid injection. It is particularly long lasting, with the effects noticeable for 6 to 12 months after the procedure. The costs for Restylane range from $350 to $800 per syringe.
