What Are Botox and Fillers?

Botox and fillers are non-surgical injectable treatments designed to reduce signs of aging and enhance facial features. Botox relaxes facial muscles to minimize dynamic wrinkles, while fillers restore lost volume and contour for a rejuvenated, harmonious look.

Key Objectives of Botox and Fillers

• Smooth fine lines and dynamic wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and forehead lines.
• Restore volume to hollow areas, like cheeks and tear troughs.
• Enhance facial contours, including the lips and jawline.
• Provide natural-looking rejuvenation with minimal downtime.

Available Treatments

1. Botox (Botulinum Toxin)
   • Relaxes specific facial muscles to soften existing wrinkles and prevent new ones.
   • Commonly treated areas: forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, bunny lines, and neck bands.
2. Dermal Fillers
   • Injectable gels made from hyaluronic acid or other substances to restore volume and smooth wrinkles.
   • Commonly treated areas: cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, tear troughs, and chin.

Commonly Treated Areas
