The Difference Between Botulinum Toxin & Dermal Filler | Video

Video: Mr Adrian Richards, Medical Director of Cosmetic Courses discusses the difference between botulinum toxin and dermal filler treatments.

Botulinum Toxin injections and dermal filler both hold their own qualities. Whilst Botulinum Toxin relaxes the muscles which cause wrinkles and fine lines, dermal filler reintroduces volume and structure to areas lacking.

The upper face is usually treated with Botulinum Toxin in the three popular areas of crows feet, forehead lines and frown lines. Dermal filler is most commonly used on the lower part of the face including, lips, cheeks, jaw and chin to name a few.

Government licensing scheme for Botulinum Toxin and Dermal Filler

Practitioners who are performing Botulinum Toxin and dermal filler treatments will soon be required to have proper licensing in place under a new law coming to the UK. 

This new breakthrough within the industry has come into play due to the rise of “botched” treatments by injectors. It will soon be an offence for such aesthetic treatments to be performed with out the legal licensing required. The new licensing scheme hopes to protect the general public by practitioners needing to show a certain standard of understanding along with premises standards.
