The differences between Hyaluronic Acids, or dermal fillers, vs Botox
When discussing the differences between them, we first need to understand each products purpose.
Where Botox is for “preventing” crease lines and wrinkles, Hyaluronic acid will “fill” those wrinkles.
Hyaluronic acid acts as a filler and will restore lost volume, help adjust facial asymmetry and act as a wrinkle filler.
Botox works as a toxin that prevents nerve-junctions from working properly, effectively paralyzing specific muscles. Usually, the muscles injected with botox are responsible for frown lines. And paralyzing them will help to prevent creases and folds for 6-7 months.
Hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers can be the answer to many aging signs.
