Botox and dermal fillers are both injectable treatments but serve different purposes. Botox uses a neuromodulator to relax muscles that cause expression lines, such as frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. This helps smooth existing wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming, with results typically lasting 3–4 months. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, restore or add volume under the skin. They can plump lips, enhance cheeks, smooth smile lines, and improve facial balance, with results usually lasting 9–18 months. In short, Botox softens fine lines, while fillers add volume and contour. Many clients opt for a combination of both for a balanced, youthful look.
