Is Botox Safe With Dermal Fillers for Facial Rejuvenation Without Surgery?

So, you want to fight off the wrinkles and sagging skin that comes with the age-old wisdom you’ve earned? Having a lot of questions is normal, and trying to sift through all of the information out there can be difficult, so we’re going to address one of the most common questions “Is Botox safe with dermal fillers for facial rejuvenation?”

What Exactly Does Botox Do to Fight the Aging Process?

When you move the muscles in your face, the skin pulls in and folds. These repeated movements are what cause your wrinkles. The proteins in Botox attach themselves to the muscle to keep the muscle from moving, which reduces or, in some cases, eliminates the appearance of wrinkles. What Botox doesn’t do, is increase the volume or address sagging skin. Which is where fillers come in.

So, What Do Dermal Fillers Do Then?

Dermal fillers are another type of injectable that can help to address wrinkles and sagging skin by increasing the volume that’s been lost throughout the years. The most popular fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA) or resilient hyaluronic acid, fillers (RHA). As you age, volumizing agents that naturally occur in your body get metabolized, which is why your skin eventually starts to sag.
