Are Botox and dermal fillers the same thing?

Botox and dermal fillers, such as Juvederm, Radiesse, Restylane, and others, both aim to remedy cosmetic issues caused by aging or sun damage with high effectiveness. However, they do so in unique ways! Botox aims to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines by decreasing the activity of your facial muscles. As we age, our facial expressions and movements leave their mark on our faces in the same way that a well-traveled road leaves behind grooves or ruts. Botox aims to smoothen out those marks by reducing the stress that such activity provokes on your face. By contrast, dermal fillers seek to eliminate the signs of aging by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, which are both critical proteins in keeping your skin young and firm. Elastin is what it sounds like, an elastic connective tissue that keeps your skin from being too loose or saggy. Collagen is essential for any healing process in your body, as it generates new tissue, keeping your skin looking young and fresh.

What should I expect from Botox treatments?

Before any Botox treatment, you will have an initial consultation with the specialist that is conducting your treatment. During this consultation, the specialist will want to know your medical history to make sure that you can safely receive Botox treatments. If there are no contraindications in your case, the discussion will move to your goals for treatment, and the specialist will conduct a facial analysis to determine where you would benefit most from Botox treatment.

The actual Botox procedure is a quick and relatively painless process! If you wish, the specialist can apply a numbing cream to the treatment area before the injection. The injection process should not take more than ten minutes. Once the specialist has completed the procedure, you should be able to return to work or whatever you had up next on your to-do list without any complications!

Within about 24 to 48 hours, you should begin to see results with fewer fine lines and wrinkles. These results typically last anywhere from three to six months.
