✨ Filler vs. Botox: Understanding the Difference ✨
Thinking about rejuvenating your appearance but not sure whether to go for Botox or Filler? Let’s break it down!
💉 Botox:
• How it works: Botox targets the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles. By temporarily relaxing these muscles, Botox smooths out dynamic lines caused by facial expressions.
• Best for: Forehead lines, crow’s feet, frown lines, and other expression lines.
• Duration: Results typically last 3 months.
• Treatment areas: Primarily around the eyes, forehead, and between the brows. However Botox is also commonly used in the lower face!
💉 Filler:
• How it works: Dermal fillers restore lost volume and can enhance facial features by injecting a gel-like substance under the skin. It helps plump areas that may have lost fullness due to aging.
• Best for: Lips, cheeks, under-eye hollows, jawline, and nasolabial folds.
• Duration: Results typically last 6-12 months, depending on the type of filler.
• Treatment areas: Add volume, sculpt, and contour.
Key Difference:
Botox works on muscles to smooth wrinkles, while fillers target volume loss and sculpt the face. 🤔
Both treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and require little to no downtime, making them a popular choice for achieving a refreshed, youthful look.
