Botox and dermal fillers are often confused but treat different concerns through different mechanisms. Botox relaxes muscle-driven dynamic lines, while fillers restore structure and volume loss.
Botox is most useful for movement-related wrinkles such as forehead lines, glabellar lines and crow’s feet. Fillers are used for lips, cheeks, tear troughs, jawline contouring and other volume-deficit zones.
In many patients, best outcomes come from a combination plan that addresses both dynamic and structural aging components under physician-led assessment.
