Some people seem to be under the impression that dermal fillers are the same as Botox, when, they aren’t at all. Dermal fillers are sometimes called facial fillers. They too are designed to prevent/reduce the lines and wrinkles in the face, commonly associated with aging. When people grow older, natural elastic and collagen reserves in their skin cells diminish, which in turn causes the skin to become saggy and a great deal looser than it was previously. In our bodies, we have natural reserves of a component known as Hyaluronic Acid, or HA for short. This helps keep the skin strong, firm, youthful, and healthy looking. Dermal fillers inject HA into the skin, helping to plump it up and fill it out. These injections fill in parts of the face with collagen, that are wrinkled or lack volume through ageing, helping to reduce/ restore the area dramatically. They can also stimulate the production of collagen within the face.
So, though they are both designed to serve very similar purposes, Botox and dermal fillers are actually very different to one another. Botox is designed to help the muscles in the face to relax, helping to drastically reduce the activity of said muscles in the face that cause lines and wrinkles. For example, people that use muscles in the forehead to frown a lot, are likely to have frown lines. Botox relaxes these muscles making it much harder to frown, and subsequently reducing frown lines. Dermal fillers however, inject parts of the face with Hyaluronic Acid, which is naturally occurring, and subsequently helps the body to produce increased amounts of collagen and elastin. Whilst both serve a similar purpose, they both function very differently to one another.
