Dysport® Injectable In Evansville

LIVE YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS NOT YOUR LINES! Prescription Dysport® injectable is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved treatment for temporarily lessening or eliminating moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Like BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport® injectable is placed directly into the muscle underneath a furrow, weakening the muscle to the point where it cannot contract. Dysport® injectable is made from a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum; it is the same neurotoxin used in BOTOX Cosmetic. Dysport® injectable is approved in 69 countries and has 25 years of clinical experience worldwide, 97% of women treated with Dysport say they’d do it again.

Differences Between Dysport® Injectable and BOTOX Cosmetic

Although made from the same bacterium, there is anecdotal evidence that Dysport® injectable may last longer, spread farther and take effect more quickly than BOTOX Cosmetic.

Results can usually be seen within a few days of treatment, and typically last up to 5 months, although areas that are treated on a regular basis may retain results longer. Injections should be given only by qualified medical professionals. Dysport® injectable injections are used to treat the following, forehead furrows, frown lines, crow's feet, and skin bands on the neck.

Can I Combine dysport® With Other Injectable Fillers?

Dysport® injectable and dermal fillers are very different types of injectables; however, they compliment each other quite nicely. Combining the two is beneficial because they treat different types of wrinkles, and address multiple areas of the face simultaneously. Dysport® injectable relaxes dynamic wrinkles, which are caused by repeated facial movements like squinting or frowning. Injectable fillers smooth out static wrinkles, which are visible even when the face is at rest. Dermal fillers restore lost volume and help to sculpt youthful looking contours and definition.
