Top 5 Myths About Fillers and Botox—Debunked by Experts
Botox and dermal fillers are two of the most popular aesthetic treatments worldwide — yet they’re still surrounded by myths and misconceptions.
At 1Face Skin Clinic, we meet clients every day who are curious about treatments but nervous because of something they’ve heard online or from friends. The truth is, when performed by qualified professionals, these treatments are safe, subtle, and incredibly effective.
Let’s separate fact from fiction — and uncover the real truth about Botox and fillers, straight from the experts.
🧠 Myth 1: “Botox and Fillers Will Make Me Look Frozen or Fake”
The truth:
This is one of the biggest misconceptions in aesthetics. A “frozen” or “overfilled” look only happens when treatments are done incorrectly or excessively.
At 1Face Skin Clinic, our philosophy is “enhancement, not alteration.” We use advanced techniques and conservative dosing to ensure you look fresh, natural, and expressive — never overdone.
✨ You, just smoother, fresher, and more confident.
💉 Myth 2: “Botox and Fillers Are the Same Thing”
The truth:
While both are injectables, they do completely different things.
Botox relaxes facial muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles (like forehead lines or crow’s feet).
Dermal fillers restore lost volume, contour facial features, and smooth static wrinkles (the ones visible even when your face is at rest).
At 1Face Skin Clinic, we often combine both treatments to achieve balanced, natural rejuvenation — Botox for movement lines, fillers for structure and shape.
🕒 Myth 3: “Once You Start, You Can’t Stop”
The truth:
You can absolutely stop treatments at any time. If you choose not to continue, your skin simply returns to its natural pre-treatment state.
Regular maintenance treatments at 1Face Skin Clinic help preserve results and keep your skin looking refreshed — but there’s no dependency or damage from stopping.
💋 Myth 4: “Fillers Stretch or Damage Your Skin”
The truth:
High-quality, hyaluronic acid-based fillers actually support skin health. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that hydrates and improves elasticity.
When injected properly, fillers enhance and hydrate the skin — they don’t stretch it. In fact, they can help stimulate collagen production, improving your skin’s long-term texture and firmness.
That’s why we use only medical-grade, FDA-approved fillers at 1Face Skin Clinic, ensuring both beauty and safety.
🌸 Myth 5: “Botox and Fillers Are Only for Older People”
The truth:
A growing number of clients in their 20s and 30s are choosing Botox and fillers preventatively to slow early signs of ageing and maintain youthful skin longer.
Preventative treatments help train facial muscles and preserve volume, so you age gracefully — not suddenly.
At 1Face Skin Clinic, we design personalised plans for every age group, whether you’re enhancing features, refreshing your look, or maintaining healthy, glowing skin.
