About Dysport
Dysport is an injectable treatment that works in a similar manner as BOTOX Cosmetic injections, which reduce and soften lines and wrinkles on the face. By offering Dysport at our Katy, League City, Pearland, and Sugar Land, TX locations, we are giving you more options to relax your wrinkles within a wider "spread" or area. Wrinkles are created by repetitive facial movements and expressions (like laughing, smiling, and frowning) that eventually make the facial muscles tight. This causes the overlying skin to have an etched line that is visible even when your face is relaxed. Dysport is specifically formulated to treat one of the most common wrinkles: the vertical frown lines between the eyebrows by temporarily paralyzing the muscle so the skin is smoother. We know you want natural-looking results that don't "freeze" your face. Learn more about Dysport injectable treatments at Advanced Dermatology to help you look more refreshed.
Ideal Candidates
Dysport is ideal if you are looking for a nonsurgical treatment to correct moderate to severe vertical frown (glabellar) lines between the eyebrows. Since dynamic wrinkles and lines are caused by repetitive use, they can develop at any age and make you look mad, tired, or sad. Dysport is a fast, effective treatment that smoothes dynamic wrinkles without giving you a "frozen" face. Since Dysport spreads to treat a cluster of wrinkles, it is also ideal for Crow's feet, the fine lines in the outer corners of the eyes.

Treatment Technique
Dysport injections are performed in one of our treatment rooms after your consultation, and the injection session should take about 15 – 30 minutes. A numbing cream or local anesthetic is usually not needed since the injections are made with a fine-gauge needle that causes minimal discomfort, but it can be requested. The skin will be thoroughly cleansed and several carefully placed injections of Dysport will be administered along the brow, followed by a cold compress to minimize swelling and bruising. After your treatment at Advanced Dermatology, you are free to resume normal tasks, but you should try to avoid strenuous activities for at least 24 hours.
What to Expect
After a Dysport treatment, you may have mild swelling and redness around the injection sites, but this should dissipate on its own in a few days. You should sleep upright the first night after your appointment and continue to use a cold compress as needed. Results are usually seen within a few days as the visibility of your frown lines is reduced for a smoother, softer appearance. These results typically last for about 3 – 4 months and follow-up treatments can be performed at Advanced Dermatology to maintain your results.
Enjoy the Anti-Aging Effect
If you are looking for a nonsurgical way to rejuvenate your skin by smoothing the frown lines between your brows, Dysport injectable wrinkle relaxer is a great choice. You can discuss Dysport and other anti-aging treatments during your consultation with one of our practitioners at Advanced Dermatology in Katy, League City, Pearland, or Sugar Land, TX during a scheduled appointment.
