Botox And Dermal Fillers

Botox and Dermal fillers are both cosmetic procedures used to enhance one's appearance, particularly in reducing signs of aging. However, they work in different ways and are used for different purposes.

Botox is primarily used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face, particularly in areas where muscles contract and cause wrinkles. Common treatment areas include crow's feet (wrinkles around the eyes), frown lines (between the eyebrows), and forehead lines.

Dermal fillers, also known as facial fillers, are injectable substances used to add volume and fullness to various areas of the face. They can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and restore lost facial volume.

Procedure

Botox

The Botox procedure is quick, often taking just 15-30 minutes. A healthcare professional injects small amounts of the toxin into the target muscles, causing them to relax and smooth out wrinkles.

Dermal Fillers

The Dermal Filler procedure involves injecting a gel-like substance beneath the skin. This adds volume and smoothes out wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
