Who is a Candidate for Dysport?

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 medication 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.

How Long Will Results Last?

When administered by skillful practitioners, like Dana Protomastro, results can last up to 5 months, with 95% of patients reporting satisfaction with only two treatments a year, making it a very low-maintenance choice. Schedule future appointments with our office to continue enjoying the benefits of Dysport for years to come.
