Wrinkles and fines lines are a universal but still unfortunate part of the aging process. As we get older, our bodies produce less collagen, especially in the face. Due to this decline, we begin to see crow’s feet, frown lines, forehead wrinkles, and other such issues. At Vita Aesthetics & Wellness, we want to help you feel beautiful both inside and out. We offer effective BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® treatments to help you age in reverse. If you’re struggling with the appearance of wrinkles and long for an effective solution, get in touch with Vita to experience all we have to offer.
What Is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® Cosmetic is a brand name for widely used botulinum toxin injections. Like Dysport®, this neuromodulator treatment eases muscle tension by blocking contractions. This injectable is commonly used for reducing wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth, forehead, and nose. BOTOX® Cosmetic is a good choice for reducing the appearance of mild wrinkles and is often done as a preventative measure to keep them from getting deeper.
What Is Dysport®?
Dysport®, like BOTOX Cosmetic®, is made of purified botulinum toxin. This compound temporarily relaxes the small muscle groups in your face that cause dynamic wrinkles. When these compounds are injected into muscle tissue, they block nerve signals, preventing muscle movement. Though they work in a similar way, Dysport® and BOTOX Cosmetic® use slightly different forms of botulinum toxin. According to clinical trials, both compounds share a similar safety profile and are equally effective for treating dynamic wrinkles.
What Do Neuromodulators Address?
Sometimes, even the best eye cream for wrinkles seems ineffective. At Vita Aesthetics & Wellness, we provide injections for just about every part of your face. Our treatments are targeted to help ease the appearance of wrinkles in specific areas. Each injection is performed with the highest level of care and precision to give you the most from your visit. Both BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® address:
- Aging Skin
- Forehead Wrinkles
- Smile Lines
- Glabella Lines
- Nasolabial Folds
How Do BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® Work?
Neuromodulators use a special formula that works by disrupting the nerve signaling processes that cause muscle movement. While dermal fillers enhance facial volume and plumpness, neuromodulators work by paralyzing your muscles and preventing them from causing additional strain to your skin. The effects of this paralysis last from 3-6 months but cause no negative side effects when administered by experienced professionals such as those that make up our team at Vita Aesthetics & Wellness.
What Kind of Treatment Results Can I Expect?
After your BOTOX® Cosmetic injections, you can experience results within 2-7 days. The benefits of this aesthetic procedure tend to last an average of 3-4 months, but some of our patients have experienced results for up to 6 months in some cases. This treatment is minimally invasive and great for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on your face. Best of all, these injections require no post-procedure downtime, meaning you can go about the rest of your day immediately after leaving Vita Aesthetics & Wellness.
Dysport® injections take 10-20 minutes to administer. We strive to minimize any pain or discomfort during the process and may offer a topical anesthetic if you feel uneasy. This short procedure will result in small areas of swelling that last 20-30 minutes. Results of Dysport® treatment last, on average, up to 5 months. For long-lasting benefits, we recommend having a second round of injections 3-4 months after your first appointment. Repeated injections may gradually train your muscles to remain in a more relaxed state, prolonging results.
