Dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections are both injectable treatments, but they are used to treat different issues as each treatment has different purposes.
Both treatments can be utilised to effectively reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, wrinkle injections are performed to relax the muscle which causes the wrinkles to relax and reduce in appearance and dermal fillers are utilised to add volume to the areas of concern which can also result in wrinkles looking reduced as they are filled out. Some studies have shown that the use of hyaluronic acid fillers may stimulate the body’s natural collagen production
8. DERMAL FILLERS ARE NOT A PAINFUL PROCEDURE
Dermal fillers are not a painful procedure as they usually have an anaesthetic included in the dermal filler product. However, it is also possible to apply topical local anaesthetic prior to the treatment in order to make the procedure even more comfortable for the patient.
