Many of us get confused between Dermal fillers and Botox (Neuromodulators), but there is a fundamental difference between them.

Dermal Fillers are injected under the skin to add fullness to different areas of your face. It works on all areas of faces, but people mostly go for lips and cheekbones. Dermal Fillers works with the help of hyaluronic acid and similar substances to give that plump look to your face. The durability of Dermal Fillers varies depending on the area of the face and the substance used.

Botox treatment works as a muscle relaxer that targets wrinkles and fine lines on your face. The botulinum toxin used in botox temporarily paralyzes the muscles where it is injected, which in turn helps the muscle relax, and your wrinkles and fine lines disappear remarkably. Botox treatments can last for 3-4 months.

Both Dermal Fillers and Botox need proper time and care to recover. 

There are multiple face injections available that work for different face contouring needs. If you need double chin reduction, you should go for Kybella injections. If you want to tighten your forehead or get rid of saggy under eyes, you can consider thread lifts. Along with this, multiple injections of Botox are targeted for different areas of the face to help reduce wrinkles and fine lines. You can always go for dermal fillers if you're looking for more chiseled cheekbones, lips, or jawline.

All of these injections need proper aftercare and take some time to recover. It is essential to understand the needs of your face first before going for any injections. Our expert team is well qualified and highly experienced to answer all your queries.
