Botox and dermal fillers are minimally invasive treatments given through injections, usually in a doctor’s office.
Botox contains purified bacteria that freeze muscles and can help minimize the appearance of lines and wrinkles caused by facial expressions.
Dermal fillers contain ingredients that add volume to areas that have thinned due to aging process, such as, the cheeks, lips, and around the mouth.
People should be aware of the risks of treatments and have realistic expectations of what they can do.
Botox may help to correct dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet around the eyes and horizontal lines on the forehead.
It works by blocking nerve signals in the muscles where it is injected. When those nerve signals are interrupted, the affected muscle is temporarily paralyzed or frozen. Without movement of these selected muscles in the face, certain wrinkles may be softened, reduced, or even removed.
Botox is not a permanent and lasts for 3 to 4 months.
Possible side effects of Botox include:
• drooping of the eyelid or brow if injected near the eye
• weakness or paralysis of nearby muscles
• hives, rashes, or itching
• pain, bleeding, bruising, swelling, numbness, or redness
• headache
• dry mouth
• flu-like symptoms
• nausea
• trouble swallowing, speaking, or breathing
• gallbladder problems
• blurry vision or vision problems
Dermal fillers, sometimes called soft tissue fillers, are substances designed to be injected beneath the surface of the skin to add volume and fullness.
The most well known is Hyaluronic acid, which is found in some fluids and tissues in the body that add plumpness to the skin
It is designed to treat varying signs of aging:
plump up thinning lips
• enhance or fill in shallow areas on the face
• decrease or remove the shadow or wrinkle under the eyes caused by the lower eyelid
• fill in or soften the look of recessed scars
• fill in or soften static wrinkles, especially on the lower face
HA is considered to be safe but side effects can occur. The most common problems include:
• skin rash, itching, or pimple-like eruptions
• redness, bruising, bleeding, or swelling
• undesirable appearance, such as asymmetry, lumps, or overcorrection of wrinkles
• skin damage that causes a wound, infection, or scarring
• ability to feel the filler substance under the skin
• blindness or other vision problems
• death of skin cells due to loss of blood flow to the area
