How Much Does Dermal Filler Cost in Hale and Altrincham? (2026 Prices Per ml)

Last updated: 11 November 2026

In short: At my clinic in Hale, dermal filler costs £325 per millilitre for the cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jawline and chin, and a lip filler appointment is £350. The £75 consultation is redeemable against treatment. Most areas need one to two millilitres at the first visit, a jawline two to four, and the result lasts 12 to 18 months or more, so a realistic first appointment is £325 to £975 depending on how many areas and how much support your face needs. The price includes premium hyaluronic acid filler, treatment by a doctor with cannula where appropriate, photographs, a written plan and a review.

Local to Hale, Altrincham or Cheshire? I am an NHS GP and aesthetic doctor and run a GP led skin clinic in Hale village, with evening appointments until 7pm on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and until 9pm on Fridays. You can book a consultation or see the full price list.

"How much is filler?" is the question I am asked most often, and the one with the least useful answer online, because a price per syringe tells you nothing until you know how many syringes your face needs and what is in them. This page sets out exactly what dermal filler costs at my clinic in Hale, how many millilitres each area typically takes, what is included, how long you should expect it to last, and how the cost compares with Radiesse and Sculptra over 18 months.

Dermal filler prices in Hale, 2026

Treatment	Price	Notes
Consultation	£75, redeemable against treatment	Around 45 minutes with me; the areas, product and volume are decided here
Dermal filler, per millilitre	£325	Cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jawline and chin; priced on the millilitres used, not per area
Lip filler	£350	Teosyal RHA 1 or RHA 2, chosen for a soft, natural result; up to one millilitre

Prices were correct at the date at the top of this page; the price list takes precedence if they differ. I only use premium hyaluronic acid fillers with FDA approval and a long safety record, and I do not offer tear trough filler, for reasons set out in this post on under eye shadows.

How many millilitres does each area need?

The figures below are what I typically use at a first appointment for a natural result. They are a guide, not a quote; a face that has lost a lot of support may need more, and a face that has not may need less than it has been told elsewhere.

Area	Typical first visit	Typical cost
Lips	Up to 1 ml of RHA 1 or RHA 2	£350
Chin	1 ml, occasionally 2	£325 to £650
Cheeks (both sides)	1 to 2 ml	£325 to £650
Nasolabial folds	1 ml across both sides, often after the cheeks have been supported first	£325
Marionette lines	1 ml across both sides	£325
Jawline	2 to 4 ml, depending on how much of the jaw is treated	£650 to £1,300

If you are told you need four or five millilitres in one sitting for a first treatment, ask why. My approach is to restore structure where it has been lost, usually starting with the cheeks or chin, and to review at two to four weeks before adding anything. Small amounts placed well do more than large amounts placed everywhere, which is the point of this post on filler fatigue.

What is included in the price

Included	Why it matters
Premium hyaluronic acid filler from a UK pharmacy supply chain	Dermal fillers are not prescription only in the UK, so the market is full of cheap product of unknown origin; I use FDA approved ranges with published safety data and a batch number recorded in your notes
Treatment by me, a doctor, every time	Filler is the one cosmetic injectable with a small but real risk of blocking a blood vessel; the training to recognise and reverse that is what you are paying for
Hyaluronidase on site	The prescription medicine that dissolves hyaluronic acid filler in an emergency; it is a prescription only medicine, so a non prescriber cannot legally hold it
Cannula technique where appropriate, with local anaesthetic at entry points	Fewer entry points, less bruising and a lower vascular risk for the cheeks, jawline and folds; lips are treated with a fine needle
Photographs and a written plan	So the result is judged against your own baseline, and so nobody, including me, adds filler to a face that does not need it
Review at two to four weeks	Filler settles over a fortnight; the review is when any small adjustment is decided, not the day of treatment
Written aftercare and a direct number	Including the warning signs to call about in the first 48 hours, which with filler matters more than with any other treatment

That last point is not a sales line. When Sir Bruce Keogh reviewed the cosmetic industry for the Department of Health in 2013 he singled fillers out, and more than a decade later they still do not require a prescription and can still legally be injected by anyone.

"Dermal fillers are a particular cause for concern ... most dermal fillers have no more controls than a bottle of floor cleaner." Sir Bruce Keogh, Review of the Regulation of Cosmetic Interventions, 2013.

What changes the cost from one person to the next

Factor	Less filler	More filler
What you are correcting	A single feature: a short chin, thin lips, one deep fold	Diffuse loss across the mid and lower face, where filler alone is rarely the best answer and I will often suggest Sculptra or Radiesse instead
Your starting point	Early changes in the thirties and forties	Marked bone and fat loss after the menopause or significant weight loss
The order of treatment	Supporting the cheeks first often softens the folds below them, so less is needed there	Filling the folds directly without addressing the cause, which needs more product and looks heavier
Previous filler	None, or filler that has been placed well and has simply softened	Migrated or overfilled product from elsewhere, which may need dissolving before anything new is placed
Your goal	To look like yourself on a good day	A visible change in face shape, which I would talk through carefully before agreeing to

What a typical plan costs over 18 months

Hyaluronic acid filler is often described as lasting six to twelve months. In practice, and in MRI studies, it persists considerably longer in many people, which is why I do not book top ups by the calendar. The figures below assume one maintenance visit at 12 to 18 months, which is what most of my patients actually need.

Scenario	First visit and maintenance	Cost over 18 months
Lips	One appointment, then one at around 12 months	£350, around £700 including maintenance
Chin	1 ml, then 1 ml at 12 to 18 months	£325, around £650 including maintenance
Cheeks	2 ml, then 1 ml at 12 to 18 months	£650, around £975 including maintenance
Cheeks and marionette lines	3 ml, then 1 to 2 ml at 12 to 18 months	£975, around £1,300 to £1,625 including maintenance
Jawline	3 ml, then 1 to 2 ml at 12 to 18 months	£975, around £1,300 to £1,625 including maintenance; for most jawlines I would compare this with Radiesse first

The consultation fee is deducted from the first treatment in every scenario. Nothing is bought up front and there are no packages; you pay for the millilitres used on the day, and the review decides whether anything else is needed.

Dermal filler cost compared with Radiesse and Sculptra

	How it is priced	Where it is the better value
Hyaluronic acid filler	£325 per 1 ml, lips £350; one visit; maintenance at 12 to 18 months	Lips, chin, a single fold, and anywhere you want an immediate result that can be dissolved if needed; the cheapest option for one defined feature
Radiesse	£395 per 1.5 ml syringe, £750 for two; maintenance at 12 to 18 months	Jawline and jowl support, where it gives more structure per pound and stimulates your own collagen; it cannot be dissolved
Sculptra	£495 per vial, £950 for two; two or three sessions, then one vial every 18 months to two years	Diffuse deflation across the temples and cheeks, where several millilitres of filler would cost more over two years and look heavier

For a 38 year old who wants a little more chin projection, filler is the right tool and the cheapest. For a 55 year old whose whole mid face has deflated, it is often neither. The consultation exists to tell those two situations apart before anyone spends anything. See how much Radiesse costs and how much Sculptra costs for the equivalent breakdowns.

Takeaway: Dermal filler in Hale costs £325 per millilitre for the cheeks, folds, jawline and chin, and £350 for a lip filler appointment, with a £75 consultation deducted from treatment. Most areas take one to two millilitres at a first visit and a jawline two to four, so expect £325 to £975 for a first appointment and one maintenance visit at 12 to 18 months. The price includes premium FDA approved filler, a doctor, hyaluronidase on site, cannula where appropriate, photographs, a plan and a review. For diffuse volume loss, Radiesse or Sculptra is often better value than filler alone.

Frequently asked questions about dermal filler cost

How much does dermal filler cost in Hale and Altrincham?

£325 per millilitre for the cheeks, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, jawline and chin, and £350 for a lip filler appointment at my clinic in Hale. The £75 consultation is redeemable against treatment.

How much is 1 ml of filler, and is it enough?

£325. One millilitre is usually enough for a chin, a pair of nasolabial folds or marionette lines, and for a first lip treatment. Cheeks usually take one to two and a jawline two to four. One millilitre is a fifth of a teaspoon, which is why small volumes placed precisely make a visible difference.

Why is lip filler priced differently from other areas?

Lips are priced as an appointment at £350 rather than per millilitre, because the product (Teosyal RHA 1 or RHA 2) and the technique are specific to the lips and almost nobody needs more than one millilitre for a natural result. For how I keep lips soft and avoid migration, see this post on natural lip filler.

Is the consultation fee refunded if I go ahead?

Yes. The £75 is deducted from your first treatment. If you decide not to proceed, or I advise against filler for you, it has bought you 45 minutes with a doctor and a written plan.

How long does filler last, and when will I need more?

Twelve to eighteen months for most areas, and MRI studies suggest it can persist longer than that. I review at two to four weeks and then see people when they feel the result has softened, not on a fixed schedule, because topping up filler that is still there is how faces end up overfilled.

Do you charge to dissolve filler done elsewhere?

Dissolving uses hyaluronidase, a prescription medicine, so it always starts with a consultation and the cost depends on what is found and how many sessions are likely. It is discussed and agreed before anything is done. If filler has migrated or been overfilled, dissolving first is usually better value than adding more on top.

Why is filler cheaper at some clinics and salons?

Usually because of the product, the person, or both. Dermal fillers do not require a prescription in the UK, so cheap filler of unknown origin can be legally injected by anyone. A very low price per millilitre tells you something about what is in the syringe and who is holding it, and whether hyaluronidase is in the building if something goes wrong.

Do you offer tear trough or under eye filler?

No, by deliberate choice, because the satisfaction rate does not justify it in my experience. For under eye hollows and shadows I use skin quality treatments such as polynucleotides and prescription skincare instead, which I explain in the under eye post linked above.
