Injectables, fillers, and Botox are terms often used interchangeably in cosmetic treatments, yet each serves a distinct purpose. As experienced aesthetic professionals, we clarify these differences to help you make informed choices.
What are injectables?
Injectables encompass any substance delivered into the skin via needle, including fillers, hyaluronic acid dissolvers, or muscle-paralyzing agents like Botox.
What are fillers?
Fillers, typically hyaluronic acid-based, add volume when injected. They're ideal for restoring hollow cheeks or smoothing deep wrinkles.
What is Botox?
Botox is an injectable, but not a filler. Botulinum toxin type A temporarily paralyzes facial muscles, preventing wrinkles and creating smoother skin.
