What Are BOTOX Cosmetic & Dysport?

BOTOX and Dysport are injectable neurotoxins that reduce the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily limiting the movement of targeted facial muscles. They can also be used to prevent the formation of new wrinkles. Unlike dermal fillers, which restore lost volume, these treatments address the underlying cause of dynamic wrinkles—repeated facial expressions.

Expression lines often start as faint creases and deepen over time, creating noticeable wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and between the brows. BOTOX and Dysport soften these lines, helping you look refreshed while preventing them from becoming more pronounced.

The result? You’ll look like yourself—just more rested and revitalized.

How Do BOTOX & Dysport Work?

BOTOX and Dysport are both neurotoxins/neuromodulators that work by relaxing tiny muscles responsible for certain facial expressions. Their formulations have slight differences that may make one a better fit for your needs.

  • BOTOX Cosmetic is known for its precision and is commonly used to treat frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and crow’s feet.
  • Dysport has a slightly thinner consistency and spreads more easily, making it ideal for treating larger areas with a softer, blended effect.

During your consultation, your provider will assess your facial structure, movement patterns, and goals to determine your best option.

What To Expect From Your Treatment

The procedure is quick and requires minimal downtime. A fine needle is used to administer small, precise injections, typically in less than 15 minutes. Most patients describe the sensation as a light pinch.

After treatment, you can return to normal activities, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, rubbing the area, or lying down for a few hours. Initial improvements appear within a few days, with full results developing over the next two weeks.

What Are the Benefits of BOTOX & Dysport?

For many, BOTOX and Dysport are ideal for maintaining a youthful look without surgery. These treatments offer:

  • A nonsurgical way to smooth wrinkles and prevent deeper lines from forming
  • Quick, in-office treatment with no required downtime
  • Subtle, natural-looking results that allow for full facial expression
  • Long-term wrinkle prevention with consistent treatments

If you opt for facial surgery, neuromodulators can enhance and prolong your results. When performed by an experienced injector, BOTOX and Dysport help you look refreshed and well-rested, never overdone or frozen.

Other Facial Enhancements With BOTOX

BOTOX can do more than just smooth wrinkles. It can also enhance and refine specific facial features, such as the lips and brows.

A BOTOX lip flip relaxes the upper lip, causing it to roll slightly outward and appear fuller. This subtle enhancement is an excellent alternative to lip fillers for those who want more lip height without additional volume.

A nonsurgical brow lift uses BOTOX to relax the muscles that pull the brows downward, resulting in a naturally lifted appearance. This treatment can also improve the look of hooded eyes.

Masseter reduction is a jawline contouring method that involves injecting BOTOX into the jaw muscles to slim the lower face and reduce jaw tension.

These enhancements offer a simple, effective way to refine your facial features without surgery.

How Long Do the Results Last?

Results typically last about 3 to 4 months, though some patients find that with regular treatments, their results last longer as the treated muscles become less active over time.

To maintain a consistently smooth look, we recommend scheduling a touch-up treatment when you notice movement returning in the treated areas.

Combining BOTOX With Other Treatments

For those looking for a more comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation, BOTOX and Dysport pair well with other nonsurgical treatments:

  • Dermal fillers restore lost volume in areas like the cheeks, lips, and under the eyes while smoothing deeper wrinkles. This combination is also known as a full face rejuvenation.
  • Laser treatments improve skin tone, texture, and overall radiance. 
  • Skin tightening treatments address mild skin laxity for a firmer, more youthful look. 

Your provider will customize a treatment plan based on your aesthetic goals, whether you are looking for subtle enhancements or more comprehensive rejuvenation.
