Wondering which treatment you should go for? Botox & Fillers or Facial Eye Treatment? Our previous sharing provided insights into eye cream and eye treatment. Common treatments involve RF, Ultrasound and traditional eye treatment. If you have not read about it, read it here.
Before we begin to compare, have you ever wondered what the difference is and still been confused?
Botox and Fillers are non-invasive eye procedures whereby products will be injected into the eye area to achieve specific results, such as reducing dark circles and firming and lifting the eyes to make them look younger and brighter.
1. Botox
Botox, known as Botulinum Toxin, is a method used to block the nerve signal telling the muscles around the eye to contract. It temporarily relaxes facial muscles and causes fine lines and wrinkles.
Botox treatment will only take a few minutes after the doctors have mapped out the marking to inject the fine needles into the spot. Depending on which treatment, it will generally take about 7 to 14 days before the effect starts. The lasting effects of Botox vary from two to six months.
2. Fillers
Unlike Botox, Fillers are a method used to fill the creases that cause wrinkles, creating a smoother appearance that gives off a “plump” eye look.
Depending on your concern, there are many different types of fillers, such as Restylane Tear-trough fillers, which use Hyaluronic Acid to fill facial wrinkles and soften dark circles.
The duration for Fillers Eye Treatment to be completed will generally be the same as for Botox treatment. The effect of the treatment varies from immediately after your session to 7 to 14 days, depending on which treatment. The effect of fillers varies from two to six months, too.
After understanding more about the two aesthetic treatments, please remember that choosing the right clinic is very important. Knowing if the clinics are qualified to conduct the treatments is crucial. Some questions you may want to check:
- What qualifications does the Clinic have?
- How much does the treatment cost, and how does it charge?
- Which brand of products does the Clinic use?
- Are there any testimonials to show the effect of the treatment?
- Is there any downtime? If yes, how long?
- What are the potential side effects?
- What after-care will I be given?
