What is the Cost of Lip Fillers in Chicago?

The cost of lip fillers in Chicago is $1,250 on average. Plastic surgeons and dermatologists typically charge the highest rates, ranging from $800 to $2,000 per syringe of filler. Medspas, nurse injectors, and physician assistants usually price fillers at $500 to $800 per syringe.

Overall,  the costs and trends for lip fillers in Chicago closely match national averages. Nationally, the use of lip fillers has increased dramatically over the past decade based on our research. This upward trend is reflected in Chicago as well, where lip fillers remain very popular.

These factors dictate the price of lip fillers in Chicago according to our thorough research:

  1. The Type of Filler

    Specialty lip fillers like Juvederm Volbella XC and Restylane Silk designed for delicate areas run about $800 per syringe. Traditional fillers like Juvederm Ultra XC and Restylane are cheaper at around $600 per syringe. More advanced fillers cost more.
  1. The Provider’s Expertise

    Board-certified plastic surgeons and dermatologists with years of injectable experience charge the most – usually $600 to over $1000 per syringe. 

    Less seasoned nurses, physician assistants, and medspa technicians range from $400 to $800 per syringe. Expertise commands higher prices.
  1. Location in Chicago

    Expect to pay more in upscale downtown neighborhoods than in suburban Chicago. The Gold Coast, River North, and Lincoln Park offer cachet and access that boosts prices.
  1. Amount of Filler Used

    Most pay per syringe containing 1 mL of filler. Subtle lip enhancement takes 1-2 syringes while dramatic augmentation needs 3 or more, quickly increasing overall cost.
  1. Extra Charges

    Fees for anesthesia, follow-ups, and complex revisions can add $100 to $500+ to your total payment. Numerous additional charges drive up the final price.

How Much Do Lip Fillers Cost in Illinois?

The cost of lip fillers in Illinois ranges from $500 to $900 per syringe depending on the provider and location, with averages of $550 to $850 in cities like Chicago, Peoria, Springfield, and Rockford.

Here is a comparison table showing the average cost ranges of lip fillers per syringe in major Illinois cities:

CityAverage Cost Per Syringe

  • Chicago, being a major metro area, is unsurprisingly on the pricier end of the spectrum. It has the broadest range as well.
  • Smaller cities like Bloomington, Belleville, and Rockford offer more affordable pricing, averaging $500-$700 per syringe.
  • Mid-sized cities such as Peoria, Springfield, and Champaign fall in the middle with average costs of $550-$850 per syringe.
  • Overall, Illinois lip filler pricing aligns closely with national averages of $500-$1500 per syringe depending on provider and location.
  • Shopping around and finding medspas in less expensive areas can yield savings on lip injections throughout the state.

What’s the Lowest Price I Can Expect to Pay for Lip Fillers in Chicago?

The lowest price you can expect to pay for lip fillers in Chicago is around $400-600 per syringe based on our experience. This usually gets you a basic hyaluronic acid filler like Juvederm or Restylane from a provider in Chicago’s suburbs or surrounding areas rather than downtown.

For subtle shaping and enhancement, you’ll likely need 1-2 syringes which keeps your total cost under $1,200. The injector may be less experienced – a nurse, physician’s assistant, or medspa technician versus a board-certified plastic surgeon. Their fees are lower.

While it’s possible to pay as little as $400 per lip filler syringe at a medspa outside the city, we advise caution. An inexperienced injector can potentially cause harm, though. Carefully research and double-check providers to avoid sacrificing quality and safety just for savings.

Dr. Soni suggests investing on one syringe of a proven, high-quality filler for unrivaled, natural-looking results. Your lips deserve nothing but quality!
