Botox® and Dysport
Botox® and Dysport
Botox®
Botox® is an FDA-approved neuromodulator used to temporarily relax targeted facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles. By softening muscle movement, Botox helps smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet—while maintaining natural facial expression.
Results typically appear within 3–7 days, with full effects visible by two weeks and lasting 3–4 months. Treatments are quick, minimally invasive, and performed by trained medical professionals to ensure safe, natural-looking results.
Dysport®
Dysport® is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator similar to Botox, designed to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe dynamic wrinkles. Dysport is often preferred for treating larger areas, such as the forehead, due to its ability to spread slightly more, creating a smooth and natural result.
Patients may notice results in as little as 2–5 days, with effects lasting approximately 3–4 months. Dysport offers a refreshed, relaxed appearance without looking frozen when administered by experienced providers.
