Fillers

What is Filler?

Facial fillers are products made from chemicals found in the body such as collagen, hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxyl apatite. The use of fillers can eliminate wrinkles, plump and hydrate lips, replace soft-tissue volume loss, raise scar depressions, and volumize creases and folds of the face. As we age, our skin becomes more susceptible to wrinkles and fine lines, especially due to sun damage and muscle movement. Facial fillers provide a solution to such damage through facial injections.

Frequently asked Questions

How much does Filler cost?

Because everyone’s needs are different, and with such a wide variety of treatments involving filler, a personal consultation is the best way to establish cost. With that in mind, filler treatments start at $600. This cost not only reflects the price of the product, but also the skill, knowledge and expertise of the medical injector.

When will I see results?

Results are visible immediately after treatment, even before you leave Portland Pain and Spine.

How long do results last?

Longevity differs from person to person and from treatment to treatment. Because the product is being injected into the body, some bodies may metabolize the product faster than others. See below for average longevity based on treatment:

Cheek Filler: 9-24 months

Under Eye Filler: 9-18 months

Lip Filler: 6-12 months

Hand Filler: 9-18 months

Lower Face Filler: 9-18 months

Neckline/Tech-Neck Filler: 6-9 months

Jawline Filler: 9-18 months

Chin Augmentation: 9-18 months

Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty: 9-18 months

Nasolabial Fold (Smile/Laugh Lines) Filler: 9-18 months

Earlobe Filler: 9-18 months

Temple Filler: 9-18 months

How many treatments will I need?

Facial fillers are a temporary solution, and therefore to maintain results, treatments will need to be administered on a recurring basis (see longevity info above).

Will I Need Time To Recover?

Bruising is possible, plan 2 weeks ahead of any events/vacations.

Request An Appointment

We want to assure our patients that Portland Pain and Spine remains open and actively managing your pain. Medication management is given the highest priority. Our relocation across the hall in the Washington building is complete but requires office renovation before we can accommodate patient visits. Staffing shortages affected our ability to communicate last month, however, this was temporary. Dr. Balog has reached out to all patients but asks that if anyone has additional questions or concerns to contact him at balog@pdxpainandspine.com.
We have updated our phone messaging system to assist with calls. There are now options to speak with a live receptionist, leave messages or speak with our new billing company. Medical record requests can be processed on our website at www.pdxpainandspine.com and are handled by Morgan Records Management. Thank you for your patience during this transition. We look forward to providing you high-quality care as we enter into 2024! 

Wishing you all a joyful holiday season.
