Dysport® Injections
in Seattle
By temporarily immobilizing the muscles you use to frown, Dysport® can smooth out those lines, restoring a more youthful, less stressed expression to your face.
What is Dysport®?
Dysport® is in the neuromodulator class of cosmetic injectable treatments and contains Beauty injections type A. The substance temporarily relaxes your facial muscles to prevent creasing of your skin which leads to fine lines and wrinkles.
Also known as Beauty injections, the key ingredient in Dysport® works by blocking acetylcholine, a chemical in your body that helps conducts nerve messages. Once Beauty injections type A is introduced into your facial muscles, those muscles no longer receive nerve messages from the brain. Muscle contractions are weaker and less frequent.
Xeomin® vs. Dysport®
Xeomin® is another neuromodulator that contains Beauty injections type A. Like Dysport®and other injectable neurotoxins, Xeomin® is a skin-smoothing treatment that rivals plastic surgery. Dysport® is the more well-known injectable neurotoxins brand, but Xeomin® may be a more fitting option in some cases. Xeomin® may produce similar results to Dysport® with less of the product, but results tend to take longer with Xeomin® compared to Dysport®.
Benefits of Dysport®
Dysport® offers people in Seattle several benefits. You can achieve a younger appearance without surgery and downtime. Treatment takes less than 30 minutes, and the results last up to four months.
What is Dysport® Used For?
Dysport® is FDA-approved to treat fine lines and wrinkles in the forehead area and around the eyes. It is also used for neck wrinkles and lipstick lines.
Brow Lift with Dysport®
A brow lift is a surgical procedure that lifts the skin and soft tissue in the forehead to raise your eyebrows and reduce wrinkles. Not everyone needs surgery to achieve the same results. Dysport® forehead injections smooth out the skin, and it appears as if you have surgery. The treatment also helps with “11” lines between your eyes, also known as frown lines.
Using Dysport® Around Your Eyes
Muscle contractions cause tiny wrinkles around your eyes. Dysport® for around the eye wrinkles relax the muscles. Rejuvenating the eye area with this treatment is one of the best ways to look younger without surgery.
Dysport® for the Lips
Dysport® is used for a treatment known as a “lip flip.” Dysport® lip flip relaxes the muscles in your upper lip. As a result, your upper lip rolls outward to show more pink to appear more balanced.
Treating Neck Lines with Dysport®
Treating neck lines with Dysport® is one of the newest anti-aging treatments without surgery. The Beauty injections type A is injected into the specific muscles that are causing your neck wrinkles and creases.
Dysport® Procedure
Dysport® injections take less than 30 minutes, and you see results immediately after the treatment. Full results may take up to two weeks to see full correction. For the forehead lines treatment, several injections are made at specific points in the upper facial muscles. If you want to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet, injections may be made at the corners of your eyes.
Using Dysport® as a treatment for fine lines around your eyes requires very little of the product, and you may only need one to three injections. Initial Dysport® results are immediate, and the Beauty injections type A takes approximately five to seven days to completely relax the muscles.
