The US dermal fillers market reached US$ 1.7 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 3.5 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period 2025-2033.
Dermal Fillers are injectable substances used to restore volume, smooth wrinkles and enhance facial features by filling in areas of the skin that have lost volume or elasticity. They are primarily used in cosmetic procedures to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and facial folds, and to add volume to certain facial features such as the cheeks, lips, and under the eyes. Dermal filler injections are typically performed in outpatient settings, such as dermatology clinics, med spas, or cosmetic surgery centers. The procedure is minimally invasive, and local anesthesia or numbing creams are often used to minimize discomfort. Depending on the type of filler, the procedure usually lasts between 15 to 45 minutes.
The US dermal fillers market has experienced significant growth in recent years, driven by increasing demand for non-surgical aesthetic procedures and advancements in filler technologies. Dermal fillers are generally safe when administered by qualified professionals, but some risks exist, including bruising, swelling, infection, and allergic reactions. Dermal fillers offer huge advantages, thus US regulatory bodies approving the products with clinical evidence.
For instance, in March 2024, the U.S. FDA approved Allergan Aesthetics, (a division of AbbVie) JUVEDERM VOLUMA XC for injection in the temple area to treat moderate to severe temple hollowing in adults over 21. With the best care, the results can last up to 13 months. To balance a patient's overall facial form, JUVEDERM VOLUMA XC temporarily provides volume to the temple, instantly lifting and augmenting its shape, contour, and structure. This creates a seamless transition from the cheekbone to the forehead.
Market Dynamics: Drivers & Restraints
Rising demand for non-surgical aesthetic treatments
The rising demand for non-surgical aesthetic treatments in the United States is significantly driving the growth of the dermal fillers market and is expected to drive the market over the forecast period owing to the increasing preference for minimally invasive procedures, convenience, affordability and immediate results. As consumers increasingly seek non-invasive solutions for aesthetic concerns, dermal fillers have gained popularity due to their ability to provide noticeable results without the need for surgery, long recovery times, or high costs associated with traditional procedures like facelifts.
Dermal fillers typically require little to no downtime, with most patients resuming normal activities within 24 hours. This is highly appealing to individuals with busy lifestyles who cannot afford the long recovery period associated with surgical alternatives. For instance, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), non-surgical procedures, including injectables like dermal fillers, saw an increase of 22% in 2020 alone, reflecting a broader trend of growing demand for less invasive treatments.
Advances in filler technologies have contributed to better results and fewer side effects, increasing consumer confidence. These innovations allow for more natural-looking results and longer-lasting effects, with clinical evidence, which has further fueled the popularity of dermal fillers as a go-to non-surgical treatment.
For instance, in June 2024, Evolus, Inc.'s premarket approval (PMA) application for the Evolysse Lift and Evolysse Smooth dermal filler products for the nasolabial fold (NLF) was submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Evolysse Lift filler is anticipated to be the most popular filler in the product line and will be marketed as the most adaptable for treating facial wrinkles and folds (including NLFs). In place of Evolysse Lift, the Evolysse Smooth filler will be marketed as a gentler formulation option.
High cost associated with dermal fillers
The high cost associated with dermal fillers is a key factor that hampers the growth of the US dermal fillers market. While dermal fillers offer a non-surgical solution for facial rejuvenation, their costs can be prohibitive for a significant portion of the population, limiting accessibility and slowing market expansion. Dermal fillers are not permanent, with results lasting from 6 months to 2 years depending on the type. This means that consumers need to undergo repeat treatments to maintain the effects, leading to additional costs over time.
For instance, according to the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, the price range of injectable dermal fillers ranges from $540 to $1,680. Formulas like Restylane and Juvederm products typically cost about $500-$600 per syringe. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of dermal fillers including hyaluronic acid is $715, the average cost of dermal fillers containing non-hyaluronic acid is $901, and the average cost of lip augmentation using dermal fillers is $743.
The US dermal fillers market is segmented based on type, material, application, end-user and region.
