Botox is injected into your face with a needle to relax specific muscles on your face, to reduce the appearance of wrinkles. A face lift makes incisions in your skin to gently pull and lift the wrinkles out. Face lifts require anesthesia and significant cutting/stitching. Botox is a simple procedure without anesthetic, and with good results.
But Facelift lasts longer whereas Botox should be redone every 6 months.

Is Botox a substitute for an eye lift?
I have had both Botox and and eye lift. Botox doesn't "lift" anything. It simply paralyzes the muscle into which it is injected. This makes any lines or furrows in that area relax and fade quite a bit. In order to have your eyes actually lifted you need to have it done surgically. I personally found it to be no big deal, with only a little down time.

Why is botox used?
BOTOX is used by patients who feel they have exceptionally prominent or too many wrinkles on their face. Although there are other uses for Botox (such as limiting sweating in the underarms when injected), wrinkle recovery is the main application for Botox. Botox itself is the brand name for a purified protein that is injected in small amounts to muscles of the face. Once injected, the protein relaxes the muscles of the face that create the wrinkles. While completely removing wrinkles is not feasible, Botox is a great method for achieving the temporary appearance of less wrinkles. Most patients visit their Doctor around every 8 months.
