Botox vs. Fillers: Which Treatment is Right for You?

When it comes to non-surgical aesthetic treatments, Botox and dermal fillers are among the most popular options. But which one is right for you?

What is Botox?

Best for:
- Forehead lines
- Crow's feet
- Frown lines

What are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers add volume to areas that have lost fullness due to aging or genetics.

Best for:

- Cheek augmentation
- Nasolabial folds
- Under-eye hollows
