The main difference between botox and fillers is that botox paralyzes muscles while fillers add volume to specific areas of the face. Botox is able to reduce frown lines and crow’s feet. Dermal fillers, however, can improve wrinkles around your mouth, creases, folds, or creases. You should consider your long term goals before deciding which treatment suits you best.
Dermal fillers add volume to areas of the face
Dermal fillers can add volume to specific areas of the skin, but they don't work instantly. You will need to give three injections to stimulate your body's natural collagen. This will allow you to get the full effect. Dermal fillers can be semi-permanent but you might need to visit your cosmetic surgeon to have any touch-ups. A temporary solution is a good option to avoid these problems.
Botox temporarily paralyzes the muscles
Botox, which is a prescription drug manufactured by Clostridium Botulinum bacteria temporarily paralyzes muscular activity, can be purchased from a doctor. It is widely used for cosmetic purposes. Botox injections can be used for therapeutic purposes, but they are very painful for people under 18. The injections are typically done with a fine needle and placed in small areas of skin or muscle. It is best to have a doctor administer the injections.
Dermal fillers last longer

Botox works better around wrinkles
Botox can be used around the eyes and forehead to treat migraines and excessive sweating. The temporary paralysis of muscles in the treated area smooths out the skin and reduces wrinkles. The effects may last between four and six months, depending on how much you injected. The length of time will depend on how quickly your body metabolizes the injection. Talk to your cosmetic surgeon if you are concerned regarding the effects of Botox before you decide to proceed with the treatment.
Botox is more invasive than dermal fillers.
Botox as well as dermal fillers work well to eliminate facial wrinkles. While the results of both treatments are similar, dermal fillers tend to last longer. Some fillers can last for up to one year depending on what type they are. Others may need maintenance to keep their results in good shape. Although dermal fillers are less invasive than Botox, they do carry a few risks. These risks should be discussed with your doctor if you have any pre-existing medical conditions. You should also weigh the risks and benefits of dermal fillers. Both options are effective, but may not suit everyone.
