Increasing age shows its signs on human skin in the form of crow feet, frown lines, loose chin, wrinkles, recessed scars or facial creases. Dermal fillers are an excellent option to consider if your are looking to deal with visible signs of aging on your skin without any major cosmetic surgery or laser hair removal. Dermal fillers can make you look young at fraction of the cost of traditional facelift. In simple words, these dermal fillers are soft tissue fillers that fill hollows, lines, and wrinkles within half an hour with results that can last from 4 months to one year.

There are different types of injectable wrinkle fillers in the market, such as Juvederm Glendale, Restylane, Restylane LYFT, Kybella chin treatment etc. Unlike Botox injections that relax the muscle under a wrinkle, injectable winkle fillers are soft tissue fillers that help to plump up your lips, fill in wrinkles, thus removing the wrinkles and imparting a smooth and youthful appearance. This article is composed with intention of providing a useful information to readers on the various pros and cons of both Botox and Juvederm when used as a beauty treatment practice. Read on to find more about it.

Botox

Botox is a type of toxin that reduces the functions of facial muscles in the area it is injected into, thus softening the muscle under the wrinkle and relaxing the muscles. It is a prescription medicine that is injected into facial muscles to bring a short-term improvement in the looks of moderate to severe crow's feet lines and frown lines. This beauty treatment takes only few minutes to complete with results visible in up to 2 weeks.

Pros: Botox is a fast procedure which makes it one of the most preferred beauty treatment across people of all ages. It usually takes 10-15 minutes to administer botox without needing any type of anaesthetic as any type of discomfort can be eliminated with a cold pack. Botox has a far better track record as it has been used by people for years to counter aging as against Juvederm Los Angeles CA which is relatively new concept. There's a history of effectiveness and botox is not associated with any recovery period, allowing patients to get on with their regular activities as soon as they are done with it.

Cons: Its temporariness is its biggest drawback which means that it lasts for only 3-4 months after which you would need to undergo this treatment all over again. Many people avoid it because it may cause temporary face freezing and side effects, though rare, may persist.

Juvederm

Juverderm is a procedure that uses hyaluronic acid fillers, an ingredient that works to hydrate the skin, making it look more plump, fresh, and youthful. Hyaluronic acid is probably the most popular filler due to the fact that it is a natural substance which is produced by your body to keep your skin looking plump.

Pros: It is a fast procedure with immediate results. It can be administered on any type of skin with virtually negligible risk of allergic reaction. Its results last couple of months more as compared to botox.

Cons: Juvederm is all-natural, so it is quite healthy. Side effects are minimal though it's an expensive procedure with vials costing around $ 500 each.
