When it comes to active wrinkle prevention and a youthful boost to the skin, Botox and dermal fillers go hand in hand. Rejuvenating the skin can lead to an increase in confidence, and leave you looking and feeling your best. 

Are you looking to rejuvenate your skin? Which treatment is right for you? We will cover both facial injection treatments now. The Studio Med Spa is proud to offer both of these injection treatments to enhance the skin!

What is Botox? 

Botox is used for its temporary ability to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles. In this day and age, the sun and even emotional stress can cause the appearance of wrinkles on the skin. One study looking at different age groups found wrinkles to appear in people as young as 21! Fortunately, Botox has become a leading injection treatment to combat the look of aging on the skin. 

How Does Botox Work? 

Botox works as a neuromodulator injected into facial muscles to prevent specific muscles from contracting. Botox slows down hyperactive muscles and keeps skin smooth. Some of the most common areas for Botox to be injected in include forehead lines, crow’s feet around the eyes, and frown lines between the eyebrows. 

The act of getting Botox takes anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes, and the results can last between 3 to 4 months.

What are Dermal Fillers? 

Dermal fillers are another popular treatment used to give skin a supple and fuller look. Aging causes the skin to sag. Not to mention, our bodies produce less collagen and elastin, which is responsible for giving skin that youthful bounce. Dermal fillers combat the sagging and thinness of the face from aging by providing volume and shape to lips, cheeks, necks, and hands. 

How are dermal fillers applied? Dermal fillers involve injecting filler material into the skin using very fine needles. This procedure does not take long and requires little downtime after. 

What Can Dermal Fillers Address?

With more than 2.7 million dermal filler procedures completed in 2019, it’s obvious many people appreciate the chance of adding more volume to their faces. Dermal fillers have grown popular for both men and women. This could be due to the fact that dermal fillers can combat the appearance of jowls and saggy necks. 

Dermal fillers can also address the presence of harsh smile lines, add volume to the under eye area to reduce the “hollowed-out” look, and combat the appearance of crow’s feet around the eyes. In order to learn more about what dermal fillers can address, consider booking a consultation with a professional at The Studio Med Spa. 

Which Treatment is Right For Me? 

So which treatment is the right choice for you? Both Botox and dermal fillers address signs of aging on the face. However, there are multiple factors to consider when it comes to narrowing down your best option for a facial rejuvenation treatment. 

Benefits of Botox 

Botox is the go-to for many patients who want to further enhance their skin. Many people enjoy Botox treatments because: 

• The results take little time to appear 
• The benefits of Botox last for a few months 
• Fast procedure 
• Little side-effects 

Botox is also used to relieve pain in certain areas of the body. However, for targeting fine lines and wrinkles, Botox will always be a treatment that yields amazing results.

Benefits of Dermal Fillers 

Dermal fillers address fine lines and wrinkles, but they also go further and address other issues that Botox may not. Benefits of dermal fillers include: 

• Minimal downtime 
• Fast procedure time 
• Adds volume to the skin 
• Can be used to address thin and saggy skin 

Compared to Botox, dermal fillers also produce temporary results. It is sometimes recommended people complete maintenance appointments to ensure they are keeping the same results from dermal fillers. 

There are a number of unique factors that can determine which facial rejuvenation treatment is right for your specific needs. For example, maybe you want a low-maintenance treatment to target specific fine lines. Or perhaps you’d like to address the presence of jowls and see results immediately. If you are still curious about which facial rejuvenation treatment may be the best choice for you between dermal fillers and Botox, book a consultation at The Studio Med Spa!
