Aside from them being two of the most popular cosmetic treatments, Juvederm and Botox are different products and work differently in the body. Botox is very much a household name on an international scale. Juvederm is quickly becoming a well-known option, too. Both Juvederm and Botox have a smoothing and generally rejuvenating effect on the skin. But, there are important differences to take into account when deciding which product is right for your skin care goals.
Juvederm is dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a hydrating substance that your body naturally produces, producing less as you age. When you book a Juvederm treatment, your injector will use an injectable gel that contains hyaluronic acid to hydrate and firm up your skin. This gel fills out lines and wrinkles and adds volume to areas such as the cheeks, nasolabial folds, and lips.
There are several Juvederm filler options available: some of them have a molecular structure more suited to the thinner skin of the lips, for instance, whilst others are great for adding volume to your cheeks. Your DermaTouch RN practitioner will be happy to advise you on the best option for you, be it Voluma, Volbella, or Juvederm Ultra, to name just a few of the Juvederm dermal filler options available.
Botox is a botulinum toxin
Botulinum is a neurotoxin that paralyzes the muscles. When used in safe, targeted doses, it stops the muscles that create crows’ feet, marionette lines, and forehead wrinkles in their tracks. The result? Smoother, younger looking skin.
Juvederm and Botox are great complimentary treatments to help you achieve the results you desire.
