Fillers or botox: the difference and what suits you

What is the difference between botox and fillers? Fillers restore volume and fill, botox relaxes muscles and so softens expression lines. Each works in its own way, and they are regularly combined. Which one suits you is something you discuss with the doctor during your free consult.

FILL & SHAPE

What fillers do: volume where you want it

Fillers restore volume to your face and subtly enhance contours, so you look fresher and more rested. They are injections with hyaluronic acid, a substance your body makes itself.

Think of your lips, your jawline, your chin or your cheekbones. You see the result straight after the treatment, and after two to four weeks it is at its best. Want to go back after all? The doctor can dissolve the filler with a special product.

FRESH, NOT FROZEN

What does botox do for your look?

Botox softens expression lines, such as a frown or crow's feet, while you keep your own facial expressions. At Soap it is called botulinum toxin: a muscle relaxant that reduces movement and so softens those lines.

The doctor works with Azzalure or Relfydess. You usually see the effect within 2 to 7 days, the full result after about 2 weeks. You will find the price per zone and per product on the botulinum toxin price list.

YOUR FACE, YOUR GOALS

Frown or lips? Botox or fillers by zone

A frown, forehead lines and crow's feet are on Soap's botulinum toxin price list. For volume and contour, such as your lips, cheekbones, temples, chin, under-eye area, nasolabial folds or marionette lines, fillers are on the filler price list.

Some zones can be treated with either. For smoker's lines, a filler fills the line, while botulinum toxin relaxes the small muscles around your mouth. In your chin, a filler adds projection, and botulinum toxin relaxes the chin muscle. During your free consult, the doctor advises what suits your wishes.

BETTER TOGETHER

Combining botox and fillers for a fresh look

Botox and fillers do different things and are regularly combined for a complete result. During the consult, the doctor analyses your face as a whole and, based on your wishes and your skin condition, decides which combination gives the best result.

Your face looks fresher, more balanced and rested, without it being visible that you have had anything done.

RESULTS THAT LAST

How long do you stay fresh with botox and fillers?

You see fillers straight after the treatment, and after two to four weeks the result is at its best. On average it lasts around six months to over a year.

Botulinum toxin usually works within 2 to 7 days, with the full result after about 2 weeks. The effect lasts 3 to 6 months. For the best and longest-lasting result, your doctor may advise repeating the treatment over time.

NO TRACE FACE®

Botox and fillers nobody can tell

At Soap, the doctors work with the No Trace Face® method: nobody sees that you have been treated, only that you look fresher.

With botulinum toxin, that means doing just enough to soften your lines and keep your own facial expressions. With fillers, it is about restoring volume or subtly enhancing contours, so your face looks more balanced.
