BOTOX AND DYSPORT
Smooths fine lines and wrinkles.
Botox and Dysport are the most common aesthetic injection treatments performed on women and men. A simple treatment, Botox and Dysport will help maintain your natural youthfulness by smoothing lines and wrinkles of the face.
Botox and Dysport injections relax the muscle, reducing movement of that muscle. Wrinkles, lines or folds that form with these muscle movements are minimized or go away completely. The treatment will smooth forehead lines, frown lines and crow’s feet leading to a softer, more youthful expression. Watch Botox treatment video.

- Frown lines or the “11’s” between the eyebrows.
- Lines on the forehead, around the outer eyes (crow’s feet), and mouth.
- Lines of the neck (Platysmal Bands).

Botox and Dysport FAQS
Answers to botox and/or dysport questions
Botox is a brand name for a cosmetic injectable neuromodulator. It is a very diluted form of Botulinum Toxin found in the bacteria Clostridium botulinum. Other brand names include Dysport or Xenomin. Injecting the diluted product in small amounts will relax your muscles by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscle. Without the nerve signal, the muscle cannot contract or move.
Botox and Dysport treatments are injected with ultra-fine needles making the treatment relatively pain free.
Most people have no downtime following a Botox and Dysport treatment. The treatment takes about 15 minutes. You should be able to resume your normal activities following the treatment.
The goal with having a Botox or Dysport treatment is to relax your facial muscles to minimize the wrinkles and fine lines. After receiving treatment, you will maintain a natural, youthful expression and will not lose expressiveness in the areas treated.

Botox and Dysport treatments are temporary. For optimal results, schedule your treatment every three to four months.
