How Does Dysport Work?
Dysport in Thousand Oaksworks by reducing the activity of some of the muscles in the forehead that when stimulated are the source of unsightly lines and expression wrinkles.
What are the Benefits of Dysport
- It can shave years off of parts of your complexion and leave you looking more youthful and vibrant
- Produces subtle but natural looking feature enhancements that will never look frozen when done correctly
- The results of Dysport in Westlake Village last for 4 to 5 months and so don’t require numerous repeat treatments
- In addition to smoothing existing wrinkles, Dysport can prevent new wrinkles from forming in the same area
- There is virtually no down time involved in Dysport injections, so office visits can be easily fit in to your schedule
- Dysport injections are virtually pain-free
How Long Does it Take to Get Dysport?
Your Dysport treatment will take between 10 and 20 minutes. Most patients are in and out of the office with little to no downtime and we will be happy to work with you and arrange the scheduling of your visits during the most accessible and accommodating time for you.
Dysport Recovery Time
You can return home or to work immediately after your treatment. While you may experience some slight after effects, virtually no recovery time is required. Within 5 to 10 minutes of the procedure, the injection sight is likely to look like small red prick points. Bruising and obvious injection signs are uncommon and what is visible can be concealed with cosmetics. After the procedure, you will be able to wear makeup and maintain your regular facial care routine.
Dysport or BOTOX?
Both Dysport and BOTOX treat the same areas, and are made of the same base ingredient (botulinum A) but are of two different manufactures. Dysport tends to deliver slightly faster results (in 1-2 days compared to about 5 days) and has the tendency to spread out nicely from the injection point to nearby areas needing a boost and thus it tends to look more natural in some cases. Both Dysport and BOTOX tend to hold results for about the same time, and last up to 5 months, so the choice between the two most often comes down to patient preference.
We do offer both BOTOX and Dysport and will be happy to discuss both further with you.
Does Dysport Look Natural?
Yes. The outcome of Dysport largely depends on the person performing the procedure. Yes, greatly overdoing it can develop a frozen look, however this is more a testament to the injector. Dr. Schwartz is pleased to be able to offer a professional and experienced team of qualified practitioners to serve you.
Am I a Candidate for Dysport?
Because Dysport requires a prescription, patient eligibility requires a consultation with a registered provider and licensed medical practitioner. For the most part, however, patients who wish to look more youthful are generally eligible if wrinkles form between their eyebrows when they smile or otherwise express themselves, and which can be flattened when spread out with the fingers.
