There are several facial fillers available to you.
I will discuss the ones I like the best.
You could use Restylane or Juvederm. These are from sugar and last about 1
year.
They are $600/cc and I can usually treat you with 1cc.
There are a couple of other treatment choices that I like to utilize.
Artefill lasts years. It requires a skin test that needs to be read at 1
month.. This is $1000/cc . Again, I can do a lot with 1cc.You get immediate
changes from the collagen part and then the micro-particles stimulates you
to build your own collagen.
I also , like to use Sculptra. These last 2 choices stimulate you to build
your own collagen. Your collagen lasts years.
Sculptra is more of a delayed response and usually requires 3 treatments 1
month apart on the average. I charge by the cc( $200/cc).
Each patient is different.
I hope this information helps you.

For facial jowls I would recommend Radiesse which last up to a year. The cost is $600-750 per syringe. You can also consider Mesotherapy which would eliminate the jowl instead of hiding them. This would last 5-10 years and would cost about $750.
