botox and fillers

Dr Singh who runs his botox clinic in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, in his latest blog talks about botox and fillers.

 

Many patients are confused on when botox is suitable for their requirements or when filler is better suited.

 

Botox works on motion lines. These are lines that either appear or worsen when you carry out facial expressions. Botox can be used either to reduce or eliminate these lines. Botox is normally used in the upper third of the face t treat, frown lines, forehead lines and smile lines around the eyes.

 

Fillers on the other hand compared to botox, works on static lines or folds. As the name suggests fillers plump up the skin. So the most common areas are the nose to mouth lines and the mouth to chin lines. Fillers can also be used for the lips and cheeks.

 

This is a general guideline and before you decide whether its botox or fillers, always have an assessment carried out by a suitably qualified practitioner.
