Neurotoxins & Dermal FillersAt Skin & Body Refinery
Although dermal fillers and neurotoxins may seem interchangeable, there are key differences that exist which should be considered when deciding between them. The main differences are as follows:
How Neurotoxins & Dermal Fillers Work
Neurotoxins, such as Botox, freeze the muscles that cause wrinkles and other lines to form on the face. When these muscles are frozen, they are not used, resulting in the relaxation of expression lines in the surrounding areas of the injection site. In contrast, dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid to plump up areas that have suffered from a loss of volume and fullness. When these areas are filled up, a smooth look is restored.
Where Neurotoxins & Dermal Fillers are Administered
Neurotoxins are typically injected into the upper half of the face, most often around the eyes and the forehead. This is because these areas consist heavily of muscles that work to create facial expressions. Dermal fillers are injected into both the upper and lower half of the face as around the mouth, lips, cheeks, and eyes are areas that typically suffer from volume loss as you get older.
How Long Do Neurotoxins & Dermal Fillers Last?
The results of a neurotoxin injection will last approximately 3 to 4 months. On the other hand, you can expect the results of a dermal filler to last around 10-12 months. Both timeframes will vary depending on what type of filler or neurotoxin is used.
Is Dysport More Natural Looking than Botox?
Have you been considering getting Botox? Perhaps you’ve noticed unwanted wrinkles or creases appearing on your face, or maybe you are starting to look like your parents! While Botox is the most popular cosmetic procedure in the U.S., you have likely also heard about Dysport. This neurotoxin can be placed carefully so that you still look like yourself, just a little more rested. As Dysport’s diffusion rate is higher, the product leaves a trail edge effectively smoothening the complexion and creating a more natural look without obvious zone of non-treatment. Dysport users subjectively report a feeling of less tightness on treated areas than Botox users.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Dysport?
If you are looking for a treatment for fine lines and/or wrinkles, you should consider Dysport. This neurotoxin can be used to treat very specific and targeted areas of aging on the face such as:
- Vertical lines / frown lines between the eyebrows
- Forehead or worry lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Smoker’s lines (vertical lines around the lips)
- Around the eyebrows to provide a gentle lift
- Gummy Smile
- Dimpling of the chin (“peach pit” chin)
- Vertical neck bands
- Hyperhydrosis (sweating) underarms and palms
