How are fillers different from BOTOX® Cosmetic?
HA gels are natural cosmetic fillers. In contrast, BOTOX® Cosmetic is a drug that relaxes the underlying muscles. Fillers fills in wrinkles by depositing a gel-like substance under the wrinkle. BOTOX Cosmetic® does not fill but affects the muscle’s ability to contract. Cosmetic fillers are better at treating static wrinkles, while BOTOX injections are better for dynamic wrinkles. Although they are different, many patients have been very pleased after receiving treatment with both products.
Treatment
The procedure can be broken down into three steps, which include:
- Based on your consultation, the first one or more injection points are selected for each location to be treated. To optimize your comfort during the short procedure, you may choose to be numbed with a topical or injectable local anesthetic.
- The correct amount of filler to be used will be determined.
- The filler will be injected directly into your skin in tiny amounts with an ultrafine needle.
Depending on the area to be treated, the procedure normally takes approximately 30 minutes.
Choosing to have dermal filler injection treatments offers not only the reduction in lines and wrinkles associated with the aging process, but it also provides lubrication and moisture to your skin making it look and feel healthier.
Recovery
Although side effects are rare, they may include swelling, redness, bruising, pain, and tenderness. These symptoms usually disappear after a few days and most individuals who have filler treatments do not require any recovery time and may return immediately to their daily activities. Bruising may occur after any cosmetic injection and may last from a few days to a couple of weeks. To minimize the risk of bruising, refrain from taking aspirin, ibuprofen, Aleve and/or alcohol before and after your treatment.
Restylane is proven to deliver long-lasting results. Studies have shown that the effects generally last for approximately four to eight months. Treatments are typically scheduled twice a year and having a touch-up treatment before the product has fully dissipated may enhance the lasting effect.
