Restylane vs. Botox

Restylane vs. BotoxAging, sun exposure, genetics, and other factors can cause the facial skin to develop wrinkles, lines, and folds. Skin laxity becomes particularly conspicuous in the facial area, which can make a person appear older than their actual age. An experienced medspa treatment provider may recommend dermal filler solution such as Restylane or a popular muscle immobilizing agent such as Botox to address these conditions.
Both treatments are non-surgical and involve negligible downtime. Motykie Medical Spa is an eminent facility providing some of the advanced FDA approved soft tissue filler injectables such as Restylane as well as Botox treatment. Patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and other areas have an opportunity to receive these treatments at the facility.

Restylane Dermal Filler

This facial filler is based on hyaluronic acid, which a naturally occurring substance in the human skin and tissue. It performs the function of holding the skin together. As the skin loses hyaluronic acid due to aging and other factors, patients can seek to replenish this substance in the body at a qualified medspa that provides Restylane dermal filler injections.
Restylane treatment is considered an ideal choice to enhance the sensitive areas of the face such as the lip edges and the lower eyelid area. The treatment will add instant volume to the targeted areas of the face, causing the wrinkles and lines to fade away. It also stimulates the production of fresh collagen in the deeper layers of the skin for longer lasting results.
At Motykie Medical Spa, Restylane may be recommended for patients who need to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, as well as those who need to augment the appearance of lips. The treatment can also be applied to the tear trough area to reduce dark circles and hollowness, to make the eyes appear well rested and alert. Dr. Motykie receives patients from Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding areas for injectable anti-aging treatments.

Botox Injectable Treatment

Botox treatment is based on botulinum toxin, which is a highly powerful biological agent designed to cause temporary immobilization of targeted muscles. For many years, Botox has remained one of the most popular anti-aging non-surgical treatments for the face all over the world.
The treatment has been approved by the FDA for the reduction of frown lines around the brows and forehead. A Botox provider may also recommend Botox to reduce lines and light wrinkles in other areas of the face. In 2013, the FDA also approved Botox for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes.

Right Back to Work

Results with Botox may last for anywhere between three and six months. On the other hand, the results with Restylane will typically last for about six months. Both treatments can be repeated as per the recommendation of the medical spa in order to prolong the benefits. Both Restylane and Botox are performed as outpatient procedures, and the patients are usually able to return to their regular activities or go back to work immediately following the treatment.
