DysportOrlando, FL

Our daily facial expressions help us to communicate with the world. We laugh, frown, smile, and much more each day. The elasticity in our skin helps to keep our face smooth even with these repeated contractions. However, as we age our elasticity diminishes and aging signs begin to form from these repeated movements. Dysport is a leading cosmetic injectable that reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines in the face.

What is Dysport?

Dysport is a prescription form of botulinum toxin. This injectable formula helps to temporarily improve the frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Dysport is a cosmetic treatment that reduces these aging signs for a younger appearance. When injected, Dysport blocks the signal from the brain to the nerves that cause the muscles to contract. This smooths out any wrinkles and lines. Dysport is a neuromodulator, like Botox, because it immobilizes the muscles in treatment areas. Some patients are concerned with having a frozen or unnatural appearance from Dysport. With our experienced injection specialists, our patients will enjoy natural-looking results where they can still make their natural facial expressions, without getting wrinkles.

Who is a Candidate for Dysport Treatment?

Dysport is a great option for those looking for a non-surgical solution to their aging signs. Lines and wrinkles in the forehead and between the eyes can lead to an angry, tired, or sad appearance. Dysport smooths out these wrinkles so that patients look refreshed. Many patients can safely undergo Dysport. To learn about the available rejuvenation options and the best treatments for you, contact our team members at Eterna MD for a consultation.

What Happens During a Dysport Treatment?

Most patients tolerate the injection process well. However, a topical numbing cream can be applied if needed for minimizing any discomfort. An expert Eterna MD injector will place the Dysport into predetermined points in the skin in order to treat specific muscles. The injection process requires extensive knowledge of the muscles and underlying facial structures which is why it is important to receive Dysport from a licensed and experienced injector. Dysport treatments take as little as 15 minutes to complete.
