Choosing between Botox and a Facelift
Published on by Batniji Facial Plastic Surgery
What is the difference between getting Botox and having a facelift? Which one is better for wrinkles and sagging in the facial skin?
Botox minimizes the appearance of lines formed from muscle activity, such as frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet. Botox is performed in the office. It takes approximately 4-7 days to show effect and lasts approximately 4-6 months. A facelift is a surgical procedure that repositions skin and soft tissue into a more youthful orientation. A facelift repositions jowls, refines the neckline, and provides a more youthful contour to the jawline.
