Dysport

Watch out Botox, there is a new wrinkle reducer in town.

Skin Essentials is proud to offer Dysport, a recently approved alternative to Botox, delivering results at a rapid pace.

Do you suffer from moderate to severe frown lines and wrinkles on your forehead and in between your eyebrows?

Prescription Dysport is proven effective in relaxing wrinkles in adults who are less than 65 years of age. So similar to the effects of Botox, Dyspot is often referred to as Botox’s cousin and boasts demonstrated results.

Wrinkles form over time, due to repeated movement by the muscles between the eyebrows. Not merely an effect of age, frown lines form based on your facial movement. Young adults who often squint and frown are also at risk for developing frown lines and wrinkles at a young age. Used only for patients less than 65 years old, Dysport will treat your moderate to severe frown lines, leaving you feeling attractive and youthful.

The contraction and tightening of muscles between the eyebrows is the direct cause of wrinkles and frown lines. Dysport treats wrinkles by blocking the nerve signal that causes the muscles to dynamically move and contract. Ultimately, a Dysport treatment reduces muscle activity in a localized area, temporarily stopping muscle contractions.

What is Dysport?

An injectable form of botulinum toxin Type A. Dysport is similar to Botox - the toxin is injected into specific wrinkles and the muscles become temporarily paralyzed. Results from your Dysport treatment will be seen within three to five days (and in some instances, just 24 hours) while Botox may take up to five days. In addition, Dysport is proven to last – skin will remain smooth for six months to a year. Botox lasts only three months. If you need a quick improvement to your appearance, you should seriously consider a Dysport treatment before your next big meeting or social event.

Cost of Dysport

For a similar cost to Botox, Dysport is about 1/3 the strength. You may need more units of Dysport to achieve the results you seek, but will require fewer treatments over the course of a year making Dysport a more affordable approach to wrinkle reduction and frown line elimination.

At Skin Essentials, we offer a variety of payment options and plans to suit each patient’s individual needs. Please contact the Skin Essentials team to schedule a consultation today and to learn more about your financing options.

Are there risks associated with Dysport?

- Antibody formation may be more likely with Dysport. If a patient develops antibodies, the toxin can be neutralized, which could potentially prevent effectiveness.

- Patients can experience swelling, bruising, numbness in a localized area or burning throughout the injection. Ice placed on the injection site will help soothe the area.
