Dysport is a neuromodulator (botulinum), like Botox® cosmetic, wrinkle-relaxing cosmetic treatment that restores your youthful appearance. Like Botox, Dysport injections combat the effects of aging by relaxing the muscles that create fine lines and wrinkles, giving you smoother, younger-looking skin. For Dysport injections in the Colorado Springs area, our team at Springs Aesthetics is the one to see. The answers to these FAQs can help you decide if this treatment is a good fit for you.
Dysport can be used on your forehead, chin, neck, jaw, and around the eyes for crow’s feet treatment. It’s specifically designed to address fine lines, creases, and wrinkles that give your skin an aged appearance.
Dysport injections work by blocking nerve signals that cause facial muscles to contract. Muscle contraction is what produces creases and dynamic wrinkles in your skin. Our aestheticians target the specific areas on your face or neck that you’d like to improve. Dysport relaxes the muscles in these areas to keep your skin smooth and wrinkle-free.
We understand that some people feel queasy around needles. But there’s nothing to fear with Dysport injections. The process is quick, easy, and generally with minimal to no discomfort. We use super-fine needles for this treatment to keep discomfort to a minimum. There’s also no recovery time, so you can resume your normal routine immediately after your procedure.
Most people notice a difference in their skin 3-7 days after receiving their injection. Keep in mind, however, that everyone is different. Optimal effects of your treatment are generally realized after a few weeks.
Again, people differ in this area. Generally, Dysport results can last 3-6 months, depending on your age, your skin condition, the area treated, and the strength of your injection. To maintain your youthful appearance over the long term, we recommend scheduling regular treatments as needed.
Absolutely! When administered by a professional in this field, Dysport is a safe and effective cosmetic treatment that can restore your youthful appearance! However, it’s not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or people with neurological disorders. Side effects are generally minimal, such as swelling, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. These symptoms generally disappear on their own within a few days of your treatment.
If you’re between the ages of 18 and 65, in good health, and want temporary relief from frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead creases, or other dynamic wrinkles in your skin, Dysport injections could be just what you need to rejuvenate your appearance.
