Modern aesthetic medicine offers numerous methods to maintain a youthful and well-groomed appearance. Among the most popular are Botox and fillers, which not only reduce wrinkles but also restore facial volume, giving a fresh and natural look.
What is Botox and How Does It Work?
Botox (Botulinum toxin) is a substance that temporarily relaxes muscles, preventing their contractions that cause wrinkles. It is especially effective for:
✔️ Horizontal forehead wrinkles,
✔️ "Frown lines" between the eyebrows,
✔️ "Crow’s feet" around the eyes.
The effects of Botox last an average of 3-6 months,after which the procedure should be repeated to maintain the results.
What Are Fillers and What Are They Used For?
Fillers (hyaluronic acid-based gels) are designed to restore lost facial volume, fill deep wrinkles, and enhance facial contours. They are commonly used for:
🔹 Non-surgical nose reshaping,
🔹 Filling certain types of wrinkles,
🔹 Enhancing and shaping the lips,
🔹 Defining cheekbones and jawline.
The effects of fillers last from 6 months to 2 years,depending on the type of filler used and individual body characteristics.
