Botox Vs. Fillers: Experts Explain the Difference Between the Injectables
Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Brian Hibler was recently cited as an expert in an article published by Allure titled “Fillers vs. Botox: Experts Explain the Difference.” The piece features insights from leading dermatologists to help readers understand how these two popular injectable treatments work and when each is used.
In the article, Dr. Hibler explains that Botox is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes facial muscles by blocking signals that cause them to contract. By reducing repetitive facial movements, Botox softens dynamic wrinkles such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet.
The article also discusses how dermal fillers differ from Botox. While Botox relaxes muscles to smooth expression lines, fillers restore lost volume beneath the skin to enhance areas such as the cheeks, lips, and jawline.
Dr. Hibler’s inclusion in Allure highlights his expertise in cosmetic dermatology and his role in educating patients about modern aesthetic treatments.
