Anti Wrinkle Options
Botox
Botox is an FDA-approved injectable treatment used to temporarily reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, particularly in areas such as the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. By relaxing targeted facial muscles, Botox helps create a smoother, more refreshed appearance without surgery or downtime. It's a quick, non-invasive procedure with results that typically appear within a few days and last for several months.
Dysport
Dysport is a fast-acting, FDA-approved injectable treatment designed to soften the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines and wrinkles by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles. Dysport offers a non-surgical solution for achieving a smoother, more youthful look. It is especially known for its natural-looking results and quick onset, often visible within 2–3 days, with effects lasting up to 4 months.
What’s the difference?
- They are very similar but have slightly different formulations.
- Dysport tends to offer a slightly quicker onset of results—often within 2–3 days—compared to Botox’s typical 3–5 days.
- Both treatments deliver natural-looking results and last about 3–5 months.
- Both need to be dosed appropriately for desired outcomes.
- Both are FDA approved.
How Do I Chose?
The choice between Botox and Dysport often comes down to personal preference, treatment goals, and how an individual responds to each product. Some patients may find Dysport acts faster or spreads more evenly in larger areas like the forehead, while others may prefer Botox for its more localized effect and longer track record. Factors like how long results last, how quickly they appear, and past experiences with either brand can all influence the decision. During your consultation, we’ll assess your facial anatomy, aesthetic goals, and any prior treatments to recommend the option that best suits your needs.
