If More Filler is Needed at a Followup Appointment to Correct Uneveness Who Covers the Expense?

Hi Anon.  The cost of a touchup varies based on what the expectations are in the initial appointment.  If we set the expectation that 1 syringe will be enough for a certain procedure and a small amount more is required to get to the expected outcome we all had in mind, then we may cover the cost.  

What happens much more often is that a consumer chooses a smaller amount of product, against our recommendations, because of budget issues.  When that patient comes back for the checkup and expresses disappointment, we gently remind them that we recommended more product and that they will have to pay for it to achieve their goals.

Remember that each side of the face is a bit different, and no two sides are exactly the same. My office policy is that if the patient needs more filler to balance things out, then the patient pays for it.

My office policy is that if patients need more filler then they have to pay for it.  Everyone has asymmetry and no one is exactly the same from side to side.
