Dermal filler is the fastest-growing cosmetic procedure among foreign visitors to Japan — and for good reason. Japan's combination of exceptionally trained injectors, access to every major global filler brand, and prices that undercut the US by 50–65% makes it one of the smartest destinations for injectable treatments worldwide.
But filler pricing is more complex than Botox. Different areas require different filler types, different volumes, and different injection techniques — all of which affect the final cost. A single syringe of lip filler is a completely different budget conversation than full-face contouring with 8+ syringes.
This guide breaks down the exact cost of filler treatment in Japan by every major treatment area, with brand comparisons, syringe counts, and hidden fees you need to know. For a general overview of filler treatments, start with our complete filler Japan guide. For Botox pricing, see our Botox cost breakdown.
1. Filler Pricing per Syringe by Brand
Japanese clinics price filler by the syringe (typically 1ml). The brand you choose is the biggest single factor in your per-syringe cost. Here's how the major brands compare in Japan's 2026 market.

|---|---|---|---|
| Juvederm Voluma | Allergan (USA) | ¥60,000–80,000 | $408–544 |
| Juvederm Volift | Allergan (USA) | ¥55,000–75,000 | $374–510 |
| Juvederm Volbella | Allergan (USA) | ¥50,000–70,000 | $340–476 |
| Restylane Lyft | Galderma (Sweden) | ¥50,000–70,000 | $340–476 |
| Restylane Defyne | Galderma (Sweden) | ¥45,000–65,000 | $306–442 |

| Teosyal RHA | Teoxane (Switzerland) | ¥40,000–60,000 | $272–408 |
| CHAEUM Premium | 🇰🇷 Hugel (Korea) | ¥30,000–45,000 | $204–306 |
| Elravie | 🇰🇷 Humedix (Korea) | ¥25,000–40,000 | $170–272 |
| Cleviel | 🇰🇷 Pharma Research (Korea) | ¥30,000–50,000 | $204–340 |
Juvederm dominates the Japanese market with roughly 45% share, followed by Restylane at about 25%. Korean brands have grown rapidly in the last two years, now accounting for approximately 20% of the filler market — particularly at mid-range and chain clinics.

2. Filler Cost by Treatment Area
Each facial area requires a specific filler type, viscosity, and volume. This is the most detailed area-by-area pricing breakdown available for filler treatments in Japan.
| Area | Syringes | Cost (¥) | Cost (US$) |
|---|---|---|---|

| Lips — full volumization | 1–2 | ¥50,000–140,000 | $340–952 |
| Under-eye / Tear trough (目の下) | 1–2 | ¥40,000–100,000 | $272–680 |
| Cheeks / Mid-face (頬) | 2–4 | ¥100,000–320,000 | $680–2,175 |

| Full-face liquid facelift | 6–12 | ¥300,000–800,000 | $2,040–5,440 |
The Most Popular Areas for Foreign Patients
Based on clinic consultation data from Tokyo's international-patient-friendly clinics, the top five filler treatment areas for foreign visitors are: nose contouring (non-surgical rhinoplasty), chin augmentation, under-eye hollows (tear trough), lip enhancement, and cheek augmentation — in that order. Nose filler is by far the most requested because Japan's aesthetic philosophy emphasizes subtle, natural-looking changes — which is exactly what non-surgical rhinoplasty delivers.

3. How Many Syringes Do You Need?
This is the question every patient asks — and the answer depends on your goals, your anatomy, and your doctor's technique. Japanese injectors are known for conservative volume use, which means natural results but sometimes requires a second session for patients wanting more dramatic changes.

4. Japan vs US Cost Comparison
The savings on filler treatments are among the largest in all of cosmetic medicine. This comparison uses Juvederm (the same brand, same product) at mid-range clinics in both countries.
| Treatment | Japan (¥) | Japan (US$) | US (US$) | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nose (1.5 syr) | ¥100,000 | $680 | $1,600 | 57% |
| Lips (1 syr) | ¥60,000 | $408 | $850 | 52% |
| Under-eye (1 syr) | ¥55,000 | $374 | $900 | 58% |
| Cheeks (3 syr) | ¥200,000 | $1,360 | $3,400 | 60% |
| Chin (2 syr) | ¥130,000 | $884 | $2,000 | 56% |
| Jawline (3 syr) | ¥200,000 | $1,360 | $3,200 | 58% |
| Nasolabial folds (2 syr) | ¥110,000 | $748 | $1,600 | 53% |
| Full face (8 syr) | ¥480,000 | $3,265 | $8,500 | 62% |
5. Filler Brand Guide: Which to Choose by Area
Not all fillers are the same — and the right brand depends on where it's being injected. Japanese clinics use a wider range of filler products than most Western clinics, giving you more options to optimize both results and budget.
| Area | Best Premium Brand | Best Budget Brand | Key Factor |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nose | Juvederm Voluma | Cleviel Contour | High viscosity needed |
| Lips | Restylane Kysse | CHAEUM Premium #2 | Softness + natural feel |
| Under-eye | Restylane / Juvederm Volbella | Teosyal Redensity II | Low viscosity, no Tyndall |
| Cheeks | Juvederm Voluma | Elravie Deep | Lift capacity + longevity |
| Chin | Juvederm Voluma / Volux | Cleviel Contour | Firmness for projection |
| Jawline | Juvederm Volux | Elravie Deep | Structural support |
| Nasolabial | Restylane Defyne | CHAEUM Premium #3 | Flexibility with movement |
| Temples | Juvederm Voluma | Elravie Deep | Volume replacement |
| Forehead | Juvederm Volift | CHAEUM Premium #3 | Smooth contour |
6. Hidden Costs & Fees
Filler treatments have a few additional costs that Botox doesn't. Knowing these in advance helps you budget accurately and avoid surprises.
| Fee | Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Consultation fee (初診料) | ¥1,000–5,000 | Often waived on treatment day |
| Nerve block anesthesia (神経ブロック) | ¥3,000–5,000 | Recommended for lips and nose |
| Topical anesthesia cream | ¥2,000–3,000 | Standard for most areas |
| Cannula fee (カニューラ) | ¥3,000–5,000 | Safer than needle; less bruising |
| Dissolving enzyme (ヒアルロニダーゼ) | ¥10,000–30,000 | If correction needed (hyaluronidase) |
| Consumption tax (消費税) | 10% | Usually included; always confirm |
| Touch-up session | ¥20,000–50,000 | If additional volume needed (2–4 weeks) |
| English interpreter | ¥5,000–15,000 | Only at clinics without English staff |
7. How to Save on Filler in Japan
Strategy 1: Multi-Syringe Discounts
Most clinics offer 10–20% discounts when purchasing 3+ syringes in one session. For full-face treatments, this alone can save ¥50,000–100,000. Always ask: 「まとめ割引はありますか？」 (matome waribiki wa arimasu ka? — "Do you have a bulk discount?")
Strategy 2: Mix Premium and Korean Brands
Use the hybrid approach described above — premium brands for precision areas, Korean brands for volume. A typical full-face treatment drops from ¥500,000+ (all Juvederm) to ¥350,000–400,000 (hybrid approach) with minimal quality difference.
Strategy 3: Mid-Range Clinic Locations
Same doctors, same products, lower rent. Shinjuku and Shibuya clinics consistently price 25–40% below Ginza equivalents. The filler itself is identical regardless of which district it's injected in.
Strategy 4: Combine with Botox
Getting Botox and filler in the same session often triggers combination discounts of 10–15%. This is especially common for patients getting crow's feet Botox alongside under-eye filler, or jaw Botox alongside chin filler.
Strategy 5: Seasonal Campaigns
January/New Year campaigns, Golden Week (late April–May), and end-of-year sales are the best times for clinic promotions. Discounts of 15–30% on filler are common during these periods. Monitor clinic websites and LINE accounts for announcements.
Strategy 6: Ask About Leftover Product
If your nose needs 1.3 syringes, you'll pay for 2 full syringes. Some clinics will inject the remaining 0.7ml into another area (lips, nasolabial folds) at no extra charge. It never hurts to ask: 「残ったフィラーを別の部位に入れていただけますか？」 (nokotta firā wo betsu no bui ni irete itadakemasu ka? — "Could you inject any leftover filler into another area?")
