We see it all the time on social media, people thinking that Botox and filler are interchangeable when in reality they are not! Botox has been a household name for over 30 years! Made famous for its smoothing effects on wrinkles, it’s no wonder this is still the go to for treating and preventing expression lines. Dermal fillers as we know them now have been around since the 80s! Used for restoring volume, smoothing lines, and enhancing facial contours, this treatment is what famously gets mistaken for Botox all over the web! So now you know, Botox is used to temporarily “freeze” expression lines, but does NOT add volume! Dermal fillers are used to restore volume, smooth lines and enhance features, but does NOT “freeze” expression lines.
