Injectables vs Fillers: Which Is Right for Me?
The first step is to determine whether you would benefit more from injectable or filler treatments. In general, injections are better suited for treating wrinkles and lines on the face, while fillers are better suited for filling out sunken areas like under-eye hollows or cheek hollows. However, there are exceptions to this rule, so it’s always best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Robert Kearney prior to undergoing any cosmetic procedure. Injectables, like Botox and Juvéderm, are made of synthetic materials that are injected directly into the skin. They take effect immediately and last for several months. Injectables can be used to treat many common complaints:
- Wrinkles around the eyes
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Smile lines around the mouth
- Wrinkles on the forehead
