Which one, and when.
This is the most common misunderstanding we see, and getting it wrong wastes money on a treatment that cannot address the problem.
A line that appears only when you move is caused by muscle. Relaxing that muscle softens it. That is what Botox and Dysport do, and filler placed there does nothing useful.
A line or hollow that is there while your face is completely still is lost volume or lost collagen. No muscle relaxant will touch it; that is filler's job.
Most faces have both, which is why the two are frequently used together rather than chosen between. The judgement is in which line is which, and that is a consultation question, not a catalogue one.
