Both treatments smooth and rejuvenate — but they work in completely different ways. Here's how to know which one your skin actually needs.
How Botox Works
Botox is a purified neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines. It's most effective on dynamic wrinkles — the creases that form when you smile, squint, or raise your eyebrows. Results typically appear within 3–5 days and last 3–4 months.
How Dermal Fillers Work
Fillers restore volume and smooth static wrinkles — lines that are visible even when your face is at rest. Most are made from hyaluronic acid, a substance your body naturally produces. Results are immediate and can last anywhere from 6 months to 2 years depending on the product and area treated.
Which One Is Right for You?
If your main concern is forehead lines, crow's feet, or frown lines between the brows, Botox is likely your best bet. If you're looking to restore cheek volume, soften nasolabial folds, or plump your lips, a filler is the better choice. Many clients benefit from a combination of both.
