Understanding the Difference Between Botox, Dysport, and Dermal Fillers

If you're exploring ways to smooth wrinkles or enhance your features, you’ve likely heard about Botox, Dysport, and dermal fillers. While they are often grouped together, they serve different purposes.

At Modern Wellness Clinic in Summerlin, Las Vegas, we help you choose the right solution for your goals. Here’s a simple breakdown of what each treatment does, how it works, and when to consider it.

What Is Botox?

Botox is an injectable treatment that relaxes facial muscles. It’s most often used to reduce dynamic wrinkles — the ones that appear when you frown, smile, or raise your eyebrows.

Botox works best for:

• Forehead lines
• Frown lines between the brows
• Crow’s feet around the eyes

It usually takes a few days to see results, and the effects last about 3 to 4 months.

What Is Dysport?

Dysport works similarly to Botox but spreads a little more easily under the skin. This can make it a better option for treating larger areas like the forehead. Some patients also notice results a bit sooner with Dysport.

Dysport is ideal for:

• Softer, natural-looking forehead smoothing
• Treating fine lines in broader areas
• Those who want quicker results

The effects also last about 3 to 4 months on average.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Unlike Botox and Dysport, dermal fillers don’t relax muscles. Instead, they add volume under the skin to smooth wrinkles or enhance facial features.

Fillers are commonly used for:

• Plumping lips
• Lifting cheeks
• Smoothing smile lines and marionette lines
• Improving jawline or chin definition

Fillers come in different types, such as hyaluronic acid-based (like Juvederm or Restylane), and results can last 6 months to over a year depending on the area treated.

Which Treatment Is Right for You?

If your goal is to reduce lines caused by muscle movement (like forehead wrinkles), Botox or Dysport is likely the better choice. If you're looking to restore volume or enhance shape, fillers are the way to go.

Many of our Las Vegas clients choose to combine both treatments for a balanced, refreshed look.
