Benefits of Fillers?
All the fillers are a gel-like substance and contain hyaluronic acid. Voluma® is a thicker gel-like substance that is good for cheeks. Juvederm® and Restylane® are smoother substances used under eyes and lips.
Radiesse® is a different substance that works great for deeper wrinkles with collagen and elastin building properties. Sculptra® is a liquid substance that builds collagen and repairs the skin

Juvederm Voluma XC® injections are primarily used for filling in flattened cheeks for a youthful, plump look. Juvederm Ultra XC injections fill your lips and get rid of lip lines, they come with lidocaine gel to improve the comfort of the injection. Restylane® injections are primarily used for getting rid of wrinkles and lifting the corners of the lips.

The key here is adding small amounts of volume to places that are critical in balancing facial structure & symmetry (this is a total art & science). Syringes start at $600 per 1 mL & typically 2+ syringes are needed per area for a transformation.
