Dysport in Westchester, NY

What is Dysport?

Dysport is a prescription injectable that smooths the look of frown lines by relaxing the muscle spasms in your face. Dysport is a botulinum neurotoxin that provides fast-acting and long-lasting results for patients seeking to reduce the appearance of frown lines and restore a natural-looking youthfulness to their faces.

How Botulinum Toxin Type A Works to Rejuvenate Skin

Dysport, a form of Botulinum Toxin Type A, softens expression lines by temporarily reducing the movement of the facial muscles that cause them. By limiting repetitive muscle contractions, the skin can appear smoother in areas like the frown lines or forehead. This helps create a refreshed appearance without altering your facial expressions.

Benefits of Dysport

Dysport is known for its ability to diffuse slightly more than other neuromodulators, making it an ideal option for treating larger areas such as the forehead. It helps reduce the appearance of lines, prevent deeper wrinkles, and maintain a smoother complexion over time. Patients appreciate its fast onset and natural-looking results.

Who is a Candidate for Dysport Injections?

Anyone who is looking for a botulinum toxin treatment that shows natural-looking results quickly and with proven longevity should look no further than Dysport. Botulinum toxin injections are great for those who desire the confidence that comes with saying goodbye to facial wrinkles but still want to look and feel like themselves.

Dysport injections are not right for you if you have a botulinum toxin allergy or allergic reactions to cow’s milk protein; drug interactions between Dysport and other medications could also lead to difficulty breathing or an adverse allergic reaction. It is important to tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding, pregnant, or may become pregnant, or are aware of medical conditions that could be negatively impacted following a Dysport injection.

What is Dysport Treatment Like?

The first step of Dysport’s treatment is scheduling a consultation with Dana Protomastro to discuss your expectations and any health conditions or questions you may have. Treatment is very quick, lasting only 10-20 minutes. One injection is placed into each of five specific points between and above the eyebrows. You will begin to see results in as little as two days.

Recovery from Dysport

You should not lay directly on or touch the treatment area for at least five hours after injection. Aside from avoiding contact with the treatment area, there is relatively no required recovery period. You may return to your daily activities immediately after treatment, making Dysport a great choice for people with busy schedules. Redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site is normal but should go away after a few hours.

Important Safety Information and Side Effects

Botulinum toxin products are widely used and generally well-tolerated, but they may cause certain side effects depending on the planned injection site and individual response. Some patients experience mild injection site pain, headache, or temporary discomfort after treatment. When used for concerns such as severe glabellar lines, bladder control, or excessive sweating, it is important to inform your provider if you have recently received any other botulinum toxin product to avoid complications. Always follow medical guidance closely to ensure safe, effective treatment and to minimize the risk of side effects.
