What Is Dysport?
Dysport is a neuromodulator approved by the FDA for cosmetic use. It works by temporarily relaxing the specific, small muscles that contract to form wrinkles. When these muscles are relaxed, the overlying skin appears smoother, softening the appearance of dynamic lines caused by repeated expressions.
Dysport is a safe and effective treatment for most people, but it should only be administered by a qualified medical professional, like the experts at Livio. Dysport treatments take less than 15 minutes and have no downtime. It has been around for over 25 years and is a patented product developed by Galderma. In addition to being one of the most popular cosmetic treatments in the world, it also has an excellent safety record.
Dysport vs. Botox®
Both Dysport and Botox are effective, FDA-approved neuromodulators in Cincinnati derived from botulinum toxin type A. They function in the same way to relax muscles. Some studies suggest Dysport may have a slightly faster onset and can spread a bit more, which can be an advantage in certain treatment areas. During your consultation, our experts will determine which product is ideal for your specific goals.
Are You a Candidate for Dysport?
While Dysport is a safe and effective treatment for many, the first step is a personal consultation. Our expert injectors will review your medical history to determine if it is the right solution for your goals.
Ideal candidates for Dysport typically meet the following criteria:
- Are in good overall health
- Are looking to soften dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines or crow’s feet
- Have realistic expectations about the results
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Do not have a known allergy to botulinum toxin products
You may not be a good candidate if you have certain neuromuscular disorders. A transparent discussion of your health history during your consultation is the best way to ensure a safe outcome.
Treatment Areas
Our Dysport injections are a targeted solution for dynamic wrinkles. This treatment is highly effective for addressing:
- Glabellar lines (the “11s” or frown lines between the brows)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet (lines at the corners of the eyes)
Dysport for Forehead Lines
Dysport injections decrease the muscle activity that causes lines and wrinkles. It also makes it less likely for wrinkles to return if you maintain your regimen. In addition, wrinkle relaxers can be used as a preventative treatment for facial wrinkles, targeting facial lines before they get deep.
Dysport for Crow’s Feet
“Crow’s feet” is the common term for wrinkles around the eyes. Crow’s feet lines typically require approximately 60-75 units to smooth the area every 3-4 months.
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with a personal consultation to discuss your goals. The injection process itself is quick, often completed in under 20 minutes. There is typically no downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities. Initial results may be visible within two to three days, with the full effect apparent at 14 days.
The smooth, refreshed results generally last three to four months.
Natural-Looking Results
Our philosophy at Livio Spa is to provide refreshed and natural results. We prioritize softening lines, not erasing expression. Our team of highly trained nurse injectors has a deep understanding of facial anatomy. They personalize the dosage and injection placement to smooth wrinkles while maintaining a natural look.
