Are There Any Other Fees/charges when Getting Lip Injections?

Question

I just got my lips done with Juvederm XC and I was charged $600 for 1 syringe plus $200 for doctors fees(?) I wasn't aware that I would have to pay for my visit on top of the Juvederm XC. Is this a common thing that surgeons do? Thanks.

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

Generally, clinics provide a per syringe price, and this can be anywhere from $550 to $850 in Toronto, Ontario. This cost generally includes the injector's fees, but it all depends on the injector as they determine pricing.

Donald B. Yoo, MD, FACS · Answer

It's not a typical way to charge, as most offices will have transparent pricing, but each office sets their own policies with regards to pricing.

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

Different offices may have different ways of charging patients for fillers, like Juvederm.  As with your doctor, some may have separate charges for the the product used and a fee for the injection.  In my office, with most of the fillers, the price quoted is the total (product cost plus treatment fee).  To be on the safe side, next time you are treated somewhere, be sure to ask if the cost includes the treatment fee or not.

Janice Lima-Maribona, DO · Answer

Yes indeed all doctors offices are different. Perhaps he Charges for the product and his time. In reality you shoul always be aware of the policy and procedures that ech office has.

Esta Kronberg, MD · Answer

Every doctor's office is different on how they charge. It's a shame you were not told up front prior to the treatment. Some offices also charge for numbing cream and the block if you get one.I don't charge extra for these things.

	Is it possible you asked other questions while in the office? It might have been an office fee for talking about other topics.Sometimes patients think  the visit includes discussing a laundry list of questions about many other issues.
