What’s the Best Botox Brand to Use?

BOTOX vs. Xeomin vs. Dysport: Is there a difference? I get asked this question all the time and wanted to share what I know here to help select the best Botox treatment for erasing wrinkles and revealing younger-looking skin.

Since BOTOX came out almost 30 years ago, it has become synonymous with erasing wrinkles and the term most people use describing this popular treatment. There are now three different products on the market that are FDA-approved and contain the same core ingredient of botulinum toxin Type A: BOTOX from Allergen, Xeomin from Merz, and Dysport from Galderma.

When it comes to comparing these three products and recommending one as better than the other, I like to say that it’s like comparing Kleenex to Puffs. They are basically the same thing, just in different packages with different branding.

The Real Difference Between BOTOX, Xeomin, and Dysport

As I said, these are all three basically the same product made with the same core ingredient. The difference can be found in the slightly different way each company formulates their product and the accessory proteins they use. Which one you select depends on the type of treatment, the look you want to achieve, and the technique of application.
• All 3 products have nice holds, but they do set differently.
• All 3 produce results that last anywhere from 3 to 6 months depending on the technique used and each person’s unique body chemistry.
• All 3 can take between 1 to 2 weeks to set completely.

Here at Francesca’s Facelift in Las Vegas, I choose BOTOX, Xeomin or Dysport depending on the look I want to achieve for my patient or which will be the best option for them.

Also, I can’t emphasize this enough, the placement for injections makes all the difference in erasing wrinkles and achieving more youthful-looking skin. It also is key for natural-looking results that last a long time.

What do I Need to Erase Lip Lines?

Laugh lines, frown lines, smoker’s lines, ugh. While these unsightly lines that can form above your mouth might seem inevitable, it’s nice to know that they can be delayed or even erased to keep your mouth and face looking healthy and youthful for a long, long time.

Your mouth is one of the most watched facial features, literally the center of people’s focus as you speak, laugh, and share thoughts and emotions. But lip lines can take away from the beauty of your face, and zap your confidence as well. But what exactly are lip lines and how can you prevent or get rid of them?

What are Lip Lines?

Lip lines are small wrinkles that form just above the upper lip. They often appear vertically from the top lip to the nose. Make a face in the mirror like you’ve eater a sour lemon and you can see a preview of how they might look.

Lip lines are not to be confused with laugh lines or smile lines, which are the horizontal creases that run from the sides of your nose to the edges of your lips. While these are also signs of aging that can occur, they are different from lip lines.

The most common reason for lip lines to occur is from aging. As skin ages, collagen, elastin and estrogen production goes down, making it easier for wrinkles to form. Normal wear-and-tear from things like smoking and drinking through a straw also increase the likelihood of developing lip lines.

How to Get Rid of Lip Lines

How the Luxury Liquid Facelift works

Just like building a house, the foundation of your face needs to be strong so the rest of the house will stay up. We begin with dermal fillers to give facial skin the support it needs. Next, we use high-quality Botox to wipe out wrinkles and lines. If needed, we can also use a combination of nonablative and ablative treatments such as chemical peels, dermal rolling and fractional laser to achieve near perfect results.

Results are almost immediate, and clients walk out of our offices looking and feeling 10 years younger with glowing, luminous skin and a renewed confidence inside and out.
