Botox, also known as botulinum toxin, is a popular wrinkle-reducing treatment that works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles. It is commonly used for reducing fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, between the brows, and on the forehead. Results from Botox injections generally last around 3-4 months.

Jeuveau is also a botulinum toxin, however it can be used as an alternative to Botox. Because of this, it is sometimes referred to as the new Botox. Like Botox, Jeuveau works by paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles. It works especially well for glabellar lines, but can also be used to treat forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, and wrinkles around the mouth.

Dermal Fillers:

Dermal fillers are a popular wrinkle-reducing treatment that work by filling in the lines and wrinkles that have developed over time. They can be made from a variety of materials, including hyaluronic acid, collagen, fat, and synthetic materials.
