What do I need – botox or dermal fillers?

We have many patients that are unsure whether they need botox hertfordshire or dermal fillers hertfordshire.

 

As a general rule you would normally have botox for the top third of your face and dermal fillers for the lower half of the face. This is just a guideline and there are instances where botox can be given in the lower half of the face or dermal fillers in the top third of the face.

 

A better way to understand the difference is that botox works on motion lines. These are lines that either appear or get worse when you carry out a specific facial expression. Since botox relaxes the muscle it is these motion lines it will target.

 

Dermal fillers work on static lines. So they would not be suitable for working on the muscle. They add volume to a particular area.

 

I hope that clears the difference between botox and dermal fillers and if you would be suitable for a particular treatment.
