What are BOTOX® Cosmetics and dermal fillers?
Products such as BOTOX® Cosmetics and dermal fillers like Juvéderm® and Restylane® are used to eliminate wrinkles and smooth over aging effects such as folds and frown lines. A properly qualified practitioner injects these products into the skin or muscles. BOTOX® Cosmetics is injected into the facial muscles and reduces the muscle activity that causes persistent lines to form between the brows. Dysport™ is a simple, effective, non-surgical treatment that works by relaxing facial muscles on the forehead, thereby reducing and smoothing away frown-lines and wrinkles. Juvéderm® is an injectable gel filler that instantly smoothes away wrinkles around your mouth and nose. Restylane® is injected in small amounts under your skin to fill creases, lines, wrinkles or folds. It is also injected around the lip area to create volume, resulting in a more youthful appearance. Who is a candidate for BOTOX® Cosmetics or dermal fillers? These products are FDA-approved and safe for nearly everyone. Some
