Botox is a highly useful and fantastic product built to relax wrinkles, treat acne and even reduce serious migraines in both men and women. Of course, Botox isn’t the only product on the market today. There are many alternatives — each one offering profound results and benefits to patients like you each day!

What Can Botox Do for You?

Traditionally, Botox is used to relieve wrinkles caused by aging and stress. Botox is also used for far more, including:

  • Manage Acne — Botox is able to curb oil production in the face, thereby reducing acne breakouts.
  • Face-Lift — Botox is able to provide a temporary face-lift by shaping the jaw, lifting the tip of the nose, and relaxing the wrinkles around the eyes.
  • Soften Jawlines — Regular grinding of your teeth can lead to a wide jawline over time. Dermatologists use Botox to help soften the jawline and chin and reduce wrinkles in the muscle.

What Are the Botox Injectable Alternatives?

As we said before, there are many alternatives to Botox that are making waves in the field today.

Belotero

Belotero is a light dermal filler designed for cosmetic procedures. As a fast-acting filler, experts often use Belotero for severe wrinkles and etch lines in the face.

Dysport

Dysport is perfect for reducing and smoothing severe frown lines between the eyebrows while leaving the other key areas of the face untouched.

Juvederm

Juvederm is another injectable that helps to add a sense of fullness to the lips. It is the perfect product for anyone with naturally thin lips or lips that have thinned due to age.

Radiesse

Radiesse is making waves as an injectable gel that removes wrinkles by plumping the surrounding skin. Even better, it helps produce natural collagen in the body over time.

Restylane

Restylane, like Radiesse, helps to add plumpness and volume to the skin to reduce both wrinkles and skin folds around the mouth, nose and eyes.
