Botox is usually used to treat frown wrinkles, forehead wrinkles and crows feet wrinkles. These wrinkles are dynamic wrinkles that are formed when you animate your face, like when you smile or raise your eyebrows. Botox works by relaxing these muscles, so that when you animate your face the wrinkles will not form. The effects last for about four months.

Dermal fillers are made of a substance which naturally exists in the body, called hyaluronic acid, which is injected into wrinkles to add volume and reduce their appearance giving a smoother, fresher more youthful look. The difference with Botox is that with fillers you are injecting a substance in the skin to make it appear more plump and literally fill in the wrinkles. The effects can last up to nine months.
