How is Restylane® different from Botox® Cosmetic?
Restylane® is a natural, non-animal cosmetic filler, whereas Botox® is a drug that blocks nerve transmission and relaxes the underlying muscle. Many patients are very happy with the combination therapy of Botox® for the upper facial wrinkles (crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines) and Restylane® to fill in the wrinkles/folds of the lower face, as well as lip enhancement.
