Dysport
What is Dysport?
As we age, facial lines and wrinkles can mar our once-smooth skin, affecting our confidence and self-esteem. If you’re noticing the appearance of lines and pesky wrinkles throughout your expressions, it’s time to start anti-wrinkle injections before they develop into static, deep lines!
Dysport is an FDA-approved product manufactured by Galderma and popular injectable for addressing dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated muscle movements, particularly around the forehead and eyes.
By targeting specific facial muscles, wrinkle-causing muscle activity is relaxed, smoothing the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles. Dr. Hahn meticulously administers Dysport injections to ensure natural-looking results while preserving your facial expressions.
At Maryland Center for Facial Plastic Surgery, we offer injectable treatments to help soften dynamic wrinkles and restore a youthful appearance. If you’re in Baltimore, Towson, or Columbia and seeking a trusted provider, look no further than our expert team.
How Does Dysport Work?
Dysport works by temporarily blocking the signals between the nerves and muscles in the treated area. This prevents muscle contractions responsible for creating facial wrinkles and smooths out forehead lines and other dynamic wrinkles.
The active ingredient in Dysport is botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein that has been used for many years in cosmetic treatments.
Benefits of Dysport
From treating frown lines and preventing the deepening of wrinkles to slimming down overactive jaw muscles, the cosmetic procedure offers a versatile solution that can be done on your lunch break.
Quick, Minimally Invasive Procedure: Treatments are quick and convenient, typically lasting only 10 to 20 minutes. The injections are administered using fine needles, minimizing discomfort and allowing you to return to your daily activities immediately afterward.
No Downtime or Recovery Time Necessary: Unlike surgical procedures, cosmetic injections require no downtime or recovery period. You can resume your normal routine immediately after treatment, making it an ideal option for individuals with busy lifestyles who can’t accommodate cosmetic surgery.
Maintains Natural Facial Expressions: One of the key benefits of botulinum toxin injections is its ability to maintain natural facial expressions while softening unwanted wrinkles. This allows you to smile, frown, and express yourself naturally while enjoying smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
Results Typically Last Three to Four Months: Dysport typically provides noticeable improvement for three to four months, making this an effective treatment that requires little upkeep. Many patients schedule maintenance treatments to prolong their results and continue enjoying smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
