HOW BOTOX® AND DYSPORT® WORK

BOTOX® and Dysport® are both FDA-approved prescription medications injected into targeted facial muscles. They block the nerve signals that cause those muscles to contract, relaxing the area and softening the dynamic expression lines that form from years of squinting, frowning, and concentrating, most commonly frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead lines, and crow's feet.

WHY YOUR PROVIDER MATTERS

BOTOX® and Dysport® are technique-dependent treatments. Natural-looking results come from a provider who is licensed, trained, and knowledgeable in facial anatomy. Our providers combine medical and aesthetic expertise to place each injection precisely and adjust your dosage to your features and goals.

BOTOX® AND DERMAL FILLERS

BOTOX® and Dysport® relaxes the lines that form with movement. If your goal is to restore lost volume or smooth static wrinkles and folds, dermal fillers may be a better fit, and the two are often used together. Your provider can help you decide which option, or combination, suits your goals.

TREATMENT

BOTOX® and Dysport® appointments are quick, typically taking 10 to 15 minutes depending on the treatment area, with no surgery required.

RESULTS TIMELINE

Most patients notice a visible reduction in lines within a few days, with results continuing to improve over the following weeks. Full results can take up to two weeks to appear, so if you have an event coming up, plan your treatment at least 14 days in advance.

HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?

BOTOX® and Dysport® typically lasts three to four months, after which a follow-up treatment maintains your results. Your provider will fine-tune your dosage over time to find your ideal, natural-looking result.

DOWNTIME AND SIDE EFFECTS

BOTOX® and Dysport® are minimally invasive, so most patients return to normal activities right away. Mild redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising at the injection site is common and typically resolves quickly.

IS IT RIGHT FOR YOU?

BOTOX® and Dysport® are generally best suited for adults between 18 and 65 with moderate to severe expression lines. It may not be appropriate for patients who are pregnant or nursing, have certain muscle or nerve conditions, or have allergies to any treatment ingredients. A consultation with our team is the best way to confirm the right treatment plan for your goals and health history.
