The Best Wrinkle Reduction Treatment — Anti-wrinkle Injectables Or Fillers Anti-wrinkle injectables and fillers both serve the same purpose— to make you look younger and return your youthful glow. Though the main objective of both these treatment alternatives is the same, there are certain differences between them. While injectables like Botox and Dysport are formulated from botulinum toxins that “freezes” the muscles under the skin to make your skin look tight and stretched, dermal fillers make your skin look plump wherever there is sagging or thinning of the skin. Ultimately filler has to be injected into the skin which makes it a part of the injectable category but the key differences make the two wrinkle reduction treatments vastly dissimilar. Read on to know more about anti-wrinkle injectables, fillers, and which treatment is perfect for you. What Are Injectable Anti-Wrinkle Treatments? As mentioned before, anti-wrinkle injections are prepared from botulinum toxin and are usually used for treating dynamic wrinkles or wrinkles created due to repeated muscle movement over a prolonged period. The most popular anti-wrinkleis Botox but other varieties include Xeomin and Dysport. Xeomin contains one key ingredient that makes it the safest injectable with almost no risks of allergies and Dysport has a lower density that helps it to spread more quickly when compared to Botox. Botox works exceptionally well in areas like the crow’s feet around the eyes and the space between your eyebrows which is also known as the‘ elevens’. What Are The Pros And Cons Of Anti-wrinkle Injectables? The Advantages include the following: ● The process is quick and does not take more than 20 minutes to be completed. ● Anti-wrinkle injections are non-invasive and do not leave any scars or major marks post-treatment. ● There are no major negative side-effects. You can experience a slight headache but this will subside. ● ‘This is a painless process and the minimum discomfort that you might experience can be solved with numbing creams. The disadvantages include the following: ● If you are on certain medications such as blood thinners or you have sensitive skin, you can experience some bruising post treatment. ● Treatments are not permanent and needs to be maintained every 3-4 months.
