A single syringe (1ml) is about the size of a fifth of a teaspoon. Lip fillers typically use 0.5–1ml for a natural result. More dramatic looks require 1–2ml. Your practitioner should advise what will look proportionate.

Filler brand
| Brand | Typical cost premium | Notes | |-------|---------------------|-------| | Juvederm (Allergan) | Premium | Most widely used; range includes Ultra, Voluma, Volbella | | Restylane (Galderma) | Premium | Well-established; includes Kysse for lips | | Teoxane (Teosyal) | Mid-range | Swiss-made; popular for lips and under-eye | | Belotero (Merz) | Mid-range | Good for fine lines; integrates smoothly |
All of the above are hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers and are dissolvable with hyaluronidase if needed. Avoid non-HA fillers (e.g., silicone, PMMA) — these are permanent and cannot be reversed.

- Cosmetic surgeon / dermatologist: £400–£700 per syringe
- Doctor (aesthetic doctor): £300–£500
- Nurse prescriber: £250–£400
- Dentist: £250–£400

How long do fillers last?
| Area | Typical duration | |------|-----------------| | Lips | 6–9 months | | Cheeks | 12–18 months | | Jawline | 12–18 months | | Nasolabial folds | 9–12 months | | Tear trough | 12–18 months |
Results vary based on your metabolism, the specific product, and the amount used. Most patients need top-ups 1–2 times per year.
Safety considerations
- Check practitioner registration — GMC (doctors), NMC (nurses), GDC (dentists)
- Ask about the product — it should be a named, CE-marked hyaluronic acid filler
- Complications protocol — the practitioner should have hyaluronidase available to dissolve filler if needed
- No pressure — a good practitioner will never pressure you to have more treatment
- Cooling-off period — reputable clinics allow time between consultation and treatment
Always ensure your practitioner stocks hyaluronidase (the enzyme that dissolves HA filler). In the rare event of a vascular occlusion (filler blocking a blood vessel), immediate dissolution is critical. This is a medical emergency that requires a trained responder.
Fillers vs anti-wrinkle injections
| | Fillers | Anti-wrinkle injections | |---|---|---| | What they do | Add volume, restore contour | Relax muscles, reduce lines | | Best for | Lips, cheeks, jawline, folds | Forehead, frown, crow's feet | | Duration | 6–18 months | 3–4 months | | Cost per session | £200–£600 | £170–£395 | | Reversible | Yes (with hyaluronidase) | No (wears off naturally) |
Many patients combine both treatments for a comprehensive result.
