How Does it Work?

Dysport works in much the same way as other botulinum toxin products on the market that are used to treat medical and cosmetic issues. This is a neuromuscular blocker that interrupts the signals that move between the nerves and the muscles and when this communication is blocked, the muscle is unable to contract in the same strenuous manner as normal which decreases the emergence of fine lines and wrinkles from muscle repetition. 

Administering Dysport is simple and straightforward and takes only minutes to complete. Dr. Greenberg will inject a dose of the medication into the muscles that are being targeted for treatment. The needle is small and thin so you will barely feel anything more than a slight pinch, however, a topical numbing agent can be applied to the injection site prior to treatment.

How Long Does it Take for Dysport to Work?

Once Dr. Greenberg administers the necessary injections, the dose will start to take effect in as little as two to three days with noticeably smoother texture and more relaxed malleability of the skin’s surface visible in about two weeks’ time. 

This non-surgical alternative can revitalize your skin and restore your skin’s natural glow without the risk of scarring and Dysport is ideal for those with busy lifestyles.

The Advantages of Dysport Treatments

Dr. Greenberg will assess your current skin condition and determine the best treatment options with the use of Dysport. The health of your skin is an important factor in deciding the most effective strategy for helping to revive its natural glow and younger appearance.

The following are some of the key benefits to utilizing Dysport for targeting the problem areas of your skin:

Restore Smooth Texture

Dysport can target frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines by temporarily immobilizing the muscles that can cause these types of wrinkles, restoring smoother texture – and increased confidence – in your complexion

Minimal Downtime

Once your session is complete, you can return to your normal routine right away. While you may notice some mild swelling or bruising at or near the injection site, these symptoms are temporary and typically dissipate within a few hours or up to a day or two in extraordinary cases. 

Natural-Looking Results

Dysport won’t leave you with a face that appears paralyzed or frozen. All of your natural facial expressions will remain normal while dramatically diminishing lines and wrinkles.

Reduce the Risk of Further Wrinkles

Regular Dysport treatments can also reduce the risk of developing deeper wrinkles over time by maintaining the look and feel of your skin through routine sessions to keep the muscles relaxed and ensure that your skin remains smooth and supple over the long-term.

The Advantages of Dysport Treatments

Dr. Greenberg may recommend Dysport to treat a number of target areas on the face to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles including:

Crow’s Feet

Located at the outer corners of the eyes, these lines are a common hint of aging and they become more noticeable each time you squint or smile. Dr. Greenberg can reduce the appearance of crow’s feet using Dysport treatments.

Forehead Lines

These wrinkles form along the surface of the skin at the forehead and they can become more pronounced as you raise or lower your eyebrows and display a variety of other facial movements. Dr. Greenberg can restore the smooth texture of the skin across your forehead by reducing these horizontal lines with Dysport.

Dimpled Skin

As we age, small dimples that resemble the outer surface of an orange or lemon peel can start to develop along the chin and it can make you appear older than you really are. Dr. Greenberg can revive this area of the face with Dysport injections to smooth the skin in this area.

Frown Lines

Frown lines are the nickname for what is commonly referred to as “glabellar lines”, small wrinkles that are located between the eyebrows and grow more visible every time you frown. Dr. Greenberg can decrease these creases in the skin using Dysport and achieve a more relaxed and youthful appearance.

Neck Bands

Neck bands can make anyone look much older than their current age because these bands result in loose, hanging skin that resembles the neck of a turkey. Dr. Greenberg can tighten this skin using Dysport by relaxing and keeping the muscles weak for reducing the risk of further development of bands and the wrinkles that are apparent with them.
