While wrinkle relaxers like Botox, Daxxify or Dysport and dermal fillers are very different types of injectables, they complement each other very nicely. The idea of combining wrinkle relaxers and fillers is quickly growing in popularity, due to the amazing results patients are seeing from this dynamic duo.
At Ooh La La Spa, Anti-Aging & Wellness in Glen Carbon, IL, we always recommend treating facial wrinkles with both a wrinkle relaxer and filler as they each treat different types of wrinkles.
👉 Wrinkle relaxers (Botox, Daxxify and Dysport) are used to treat dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repeated facial movements like squinting and frowning.
👉 Dermal fillers (We offer Juvederm and RHA) smooth out static wrinkles, which are visible even when the face is at rest. Dermal fillers also restore lost volume and help to sculpt more youthful looking contours and definition that we lose as we age.
Here are our top 3 reasons to combine wrinkle relaxers and filler:
1. Combining wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers treats multiple areas of the face simultaneously. Botox, Daxxify and Dysport are typically used around the eyes and forehead, while dermal fillers are used on the middle and lower areas of the face and along the jawline.
2. Using Botox® and dermal fillers together not only provides stunning results, but it can also prolong the results of treatment. The hyaluronic acid in many fillers tends to break down faster in areas of the face that are very animated and active (such as around the mouth). It can be helpful to first use a wrinkle relaxer to reduce muscle movement, so the hyaluronic acid is then less likely to break down as quickly.
3. Finally, both wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers require very little downtime, and the results appear within a few days. Who doesn’t love instant gratification!
