WHAT IS DYSPORT?
Dysport for wrinkles is a purified protein, which is used to treat wrinkles on the face. Dysport is similar to a Botox treatment, but is a slightly different molecule, called abobotulinumtoxinA. It has been shown in clinical studies to get rid of wrinkles for four months after a single treatment. Dysport works by relaxing the overactive muscles of the face, in order to prevent the repetitive movements that lead to the development of wrinkles. By blocking overactivity of facial muscles, wrinkles are not only prevented from developing, but existing wrinkles have a chance to improve.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Dysport is a purified protein that is injected directly into the overactive muscles of the face. Once placed in the muscle, Dysport blocks a neurotransmitter (called acetylcholine) that would otherwise stimulate muscle activity. This process allows for the muscle to relax and avoid repetitive movements that can lead to wrinkle development. The benefit from a single treatment begins to appear after just a few days and lasts for approximately four months. The result of Dysport treatment is a wrinkle-free, relaxed and more youthful appearance. Our goal is not to ‘freeze’ your expression, but to provide a natural-looking appearance.
WHY DYSPORT?
Some may report faster results with Dysport injections, as early as 24 hours after treatment. Some patients have noted that they feel Dysport provides a natural result and they feel less "frozen" in comparison to other treatments. It is also noted that Dysport may last longer, allowing patients to go longer between treatments.
WHAT TO EXPECT
All neuromodulator treatments are performed in our office. using a very short series of tiny injections to place the product directly into the muscles to be treated. There is no downtime after the treatment; most people return directly to their usual activities. The effects are not seen immediately; they begin to appear a few days after the treatment, at times as early as 24 hours post treatment. The full effect can be appreciated about 2 weeks following your treatment.
