Restylane Versus BOTOX.. Which is right for me?
Both products are equally good but their applications vary with the patient’s condition, requirements, and circumstances under which the product has been used. Although both of these treatments are effective and FDA approved, Restylane, as a natural substance does not require pre-testing for allergic reactions. Soothing effects of restylane can last up to one year whereas Botox effects last for 3 to 6 months. Although Botox treatment causes minimal pain it may cause a slight temporary bruising at the injection site. It also cannot improve wrinkles of sun-damaged skin. Botox cannot be used during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or used on neurology patients.
