Abstract

The ephemeral effects of neurotoxins and fillers are well described for facial remodeling and rejuvenation. Less is known about their long-term effects on skin rejuvenation and neocollagenesis. This article aims to review current available science and literature to support the use of these cosmetic procedures as lasting antiaging treatments.
