Choosing the Right Injectable: Comparing Dermal Fillers and Neurotoxins

November 5, 2025

As more people in Swanzey and the Monadnock Region look for nonsurgical ways to enhance their appearance, injectable treatments such as dermal fillers and neurotoxins have become the go-to solution. The choices can seem overwhelming, but the right guidance from local experts ensures you make a choice that brings out the best version of yourself. At Better You Beauty LLC, our mission is to educate and empower you—so you can understand what each injectable offers, feel confident in your decisions, and experience naturally beautiful results.


What Are Injectables?


Injectables are minimally invasive cosmetic treatments that reduce wrinkles, renew facial contours, and subtly enhance your natural features. In our Swanzey medspa, the two most popular injectables are:


- Dermal fillers, such as those made from hyaluronic acid

- Neurotoxins, commonly known as Botox or Dysport


Though both are injectables, they serve different purposes and deliver unique results. Understanding these differences is the first step to making the right choice for your aesthetic goals.


Understanding Dermal Fillers: The Volume Restorers


Dermal fillers are gel-based solutions, expertly injected to add volume, soften wrinkles, or contour specific facial features. Some of their top uses include:


- Plumping thin or aging lips

- Restoring volume to cheeks and under the eyes

- Smoothing deep facial lines (like nasolabial folds)

- Improving the shape and definition of the chin and jawline


At Better You Beauty, we offer the safest and most advanced dermal fillers—tailoring treatments to match your individual facial structure and concerns. Results show immediately, with many clients enjoying their enhanced look for 6 to 24 months, depending on the product chosen and the treated area.


Neurotoxins: The Wrinkle Relaxers


Neurotoxins, such as Botox and Dysport, work differently. Rather than adding volume, they target the underlying muscle activity that causes dynamic wrinkles—those lines created by repeated facial movements. Common treatment areas include:


- Forehead lines

- Crow’s feet around the eyes

- Frown lines between the brows


Neurotoxins create a softer, smoother appearance by preventing new wrinkles from forming and diminishing existing expression lines. Most treatments last for 3 to 4 months and require little to no downtime, making them a favorite for busy clients throughout Swanzey and Keene.


Deciding Which Injectable Is Right for You


The key to choosing is matching the injectable to your specific concern:


- Choose dermal fillers if you notice a loss of facial volume, want to contour your features, or desire fuller lips.

- Choose neurotoxins if your main challenge is wrinkles caused by expression or muscle movement.


Often, combining both types brings the most natural, refreshed outcome. During your personalized consultation at Better You Beauty LLC, our experienced team will listen to your goals and design a treatment strategy tailored for the look you want to achieve.
