What is Dysport?
Dysport is a neuromodulator similar in formulation as Botox. A neuromodulator is a medication that is designed to reduce muscle contractions where it is injected. By injecting Dysport into various muscles of the face that cause dynamic wrinkles, these areas can be smoothed and wrinkles can be reduced or eliminated. This method of wrinkle removal works best on mild to moderate signs of aging.
Where can Dysport be used?
Dysport can be used on the upper third of the face to address:
- Glabellar lines
- Crow’s feet
- Forehead folds
The injections are strategically administered by a medical professional at our practice. Patients will experience some slight discomfort when the injections are placed, but this is short term. Bruising, swelling, and itching at the injection site can occur but resolve on their own over time. Results are seen within approximately one week and will last several months before reinjection is needed for maintenance.
Who is candidate for Dysport injections?
Most patients with mild to moderate dynamic wrinkles who are healthy are often good candidates for this and many other cosmetic injectables available at Georgia Dermatology Partners. During a consultation visit and initial evaluation, our skilled professionals can determine if patients can benefit from Dysport. In cases where severe skin laxity and aging are present, surgical interventions such as forehead lifts and facelifts may still be the best option for these individuals.
