Botox and Filler

1-The Botox is made of protein, the botulinum toxin produced by Clostridium bacteria. The filler is made of materials that resemble those found in our skin, such as collagen, fats or hyaluronic acid.

2-Botox works by relaxing the muscles responsible for the formation of wrinkles and so treats it. The filler works by filling the gaps in the thin and atrophied face and thus the treatment of wrinkles, facial lines and helps the patient to enjoy an attractive look.

3-Botox lasts for 6 months at most, after which the patient needs to inject it again.. The filler lasts for longer periods around a year or more.
