Dysport
Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that uses botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is particularly effective for smoothing out frown lines between the eyebrows and can help create a more youthful appearance.
How It Works
Dysport works similarly to Botox by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. This results in a softer, more relaxed facial expression. Dysport spreads slightly farther than Botox, allowing for more natural movement in treated areas.
What to Expect During Treatment
During your consultation, our experienced provider will evaluate your needs and discuss your aesthetic goals. The treatment involves a series of small injections, often requiring no anesthesia. A numbing agent may be applied for added comfort.
