BOTOX® Cosmetic & Dysport® in Weston, FL
As we age, all of our daily facial expressions lead to wrinkles and creases in our faces. Skin that was once tight and youthful becomes wrinkled with deep grooves and lines, causing permanent scowls that can make you look tired or angry. The most prominent lines are typically the frown lines between our eyebrows (also known as glabellar lines), wrinkles surrounding our eyes (crow’s feet), and forehead creases.
Cosmetic injection treatments such as BOTOX® Cosmetic & Dysport® are performed in Weston, FL, to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, restoring the appearance of smooth, refreshed skin.
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® Cosmetic (Botulinum type A) is one of the most popular minimally invasive facial rejuvenation treatments. It is FDA-approved to treat frown lines (glabellar lines), crow’s feet, and horizontal forehead lines. BOTOX® Cosmetic is a safe and effective option for temporarily reducing wrinkles and restoring smooth, fresh skin.
What Is Dysport®?
Similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® is a non-surgical approach to reducing wrinkles and fine lines by relaxing muscles and smoothing the skin. Dysport® is FDA-approved to treat glabellar lines, which are the vertical lines that appear between the eyebrows at the top of the nose bridge. By temporarily reducing fine lines and wrinkles with Dysport®, your youthful glow can be restored.

What Are the BOTOX® Cosmetic & Dysport® Procedures Like?
BOTOX® Cosmetic Procedure
The BOTOX® Cosmetic neurotoxin is injected into strategically targeted areas to relax muscles and skin for a smoother texture and appearance. If requested, your physician can apply ice or local anesthetic cream to numb the area prior to your injection to offer a more comfortable experience. Each process is personalized, so it is best to discuss your concerns and preferences before your treatment to ensure your goals and desired results are achieved.
Dysport® Procedure
Dysport® is derived from bacteria and purified to block nerve impulses in the muscles. By providing a barrier, the muscles are relaxed, causing wrinkles to smooth out for a refreshed appearance. While similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® has a different formulation, which requires its own dosage level to achieve the desired results. Both injectables spread differently and have differing effect rates.
What Is Recovery Like After BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport®?
There is no downtime or recovery after BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport® treatment. However, it is recommended to avoid rubbing the injection site and not engage in strenuous physical activity for the rest of the day. Avoid putting any pressure on your injection sites for at least one week after treatment.
Some patients experience minor discomfort, including a mild pinching sensation, redness, minimal bruising, and slightly swollen skin at the injection site, which should diminish within a few days. Over-the-counter pain medications can be taken if needed.
When Will I See Results After BOTOX® Cosmetic or Dysport®?
Your skin type and the selected treatment areas will determine when your final results begin to show. For both BOTOX® Cosmetic & Dysport®, it is common for effects to take three to seven days after the injection to develop visible results. Initial treatments may require a more conservative approach to ensure a more natural, optimal outcome without risking over-treatment of the skin and muscles. You can schedule a follow-up appointment for more treatment sessions as needed.
Once results become evident, facial skin will be relaxed and smoothed, providing a youthful, softer appearance. Results may vary, and you can expect your outcome to last between three and six months. Patients have reported a softer look, quick results, longer-lasting effects after multiple treatments, and virtually nonexistent adverse reactions.
