Dysport For The Treatment Of Wrinkles

Dysport is a medication recently approved by the FDA, similar to Botox, for treating a variety of wrinkles. Dysport is injected with a needle the size of a human eyelash; it works by relaxing facial muscles, thereby reducing and smoothing away frown-lines and wrinkles. Effects as reported can occur in as little as two days, and can last up to six months.

How does Dysport work?

Dysport is a five minute procedure that is safe and helps you look youthful, relaxed, and feel better about yourself. Dysport blocks impulses from the nerve to the facial muscles that are related to wrinkle and expression lines. After treatment, the wrinkled skin becomes smooth and gives a more youthful appearance, while the untreated facial muscles still contract, allowing for normal facial expression.

Studies performed around the world have shown it to have an equal or more favorable safety profile than Botox®. However, while rare some side effects can and occur. The most common side effects are temporary soreness or mild bruising around the injection site. Discuss side effects with Dr. Mok or Dr. Kotlus to determine if Dysport is right for you.
