Is Restylane a Lot More Expensive Than Botox?

Dear Thaley

One does not have their face paralyzed with BOTOX. This product is used to soften some of the muscle to improve the lines, wrinkles and muscular ridging that occurs around the eyes. The end point is not muscle freeze.

Also the agents like BOTOX and the fillers like Restylane are fillers. They do very different things. As such, individuals often elect to have both treatments to address different issues in the face. It is not really a matter of choosing one or the other.

Remember that treatment with these products is entirely of your choosing. Improving your appearance with these products in no required. People choose these services because they are safe and effective.

When you are actually ready to speak with a well qualified injector, seek out someone in your area that is one of the core aesthetic specialities: Dermatology, Oculoplastics, Facial plastics, or general plastic surgery.

Botox is a wrinkle relaxer and is used on the upper face/forehead for the most part, while Restylane is a little more versatile as to where it is injected. It is a filler and can only fill, but can't actually relax.
Typically, they should be used in conjunction, so the real answer is that both are necessary, but the good news is that Restylane lasts a little longer than botox and is a bit less pricey in the long run given that fact. Good luck!
