WHAT EXACTLY IS BOTULINUM TOXIN?

Botulinum Toxin is a potent neuromuscular paralyzing agent that induces temporary functional denervation and atrophy of the injected muscle (Ranoux et. al, 2002).

However DON’T BE SCARED!

This doesn’t mean you’re having your face paralyzed, for sure.

The Botox and Dysport application are made by high trained professionals, who meticulously plan the strategic points to:

  1. relax lines of the forehead;

  2. crow’s feet around the eyes;

  3. bunny lines;

  4. smokers lines;

  5. dimpled appearing chin;

  6. gummy smiles;

  7. It can help to turn up the corners of the mouth;

  8. It can help with hyperhidrosis and excessive sweating; and

  9. cervical dystonia disorders as well is some area that’s evolving quickly.

It’s a lot and it’s also great, right?

WHICH ONE SHOULD I CHOOSE? BOTOX OR DYSPORT?

You may start seeing results from Botox within a week, but full results can take up to 15 days. Botox injections also last a few months at a time – around 4 months too.

The biggest difference between Dysport and Botox comes in the formulations of both injectables. Dysport is much more diluted and spreads quickly compared to Botox. This makes it great for larger surface areas like the forehead. 

Botox is much more potent, making it amazing for small areas and pesky wrinkles like Crow’s feet. That means the biggest difference comes down to how much injectable is used and how long it takes to work.

It also comes down to the expert using the injectable. A board-certified doctor with extensive knowledge on all things injectable means they will select the best one for you. 

Here at Jon Ric Med Spa Boca Raton our board-certified professionals understand how Botox and Dysport affect the different lines and wrinkles on your face.

From there, they can advise and make a perfect plan to help you look and feel years younger.

Dysport and Botox are commonly used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face and forehead. While they both have medical uses, they’re most popular as injectable cosmetic treatments.

Dysport and Botox are both considered nonsurgical forms of wrinkle treatment that have quick recovery rates. While they have many similarities, there are also some differences between them.

Both treatments contain a similar main ingredient, but the trace protein amounts they contain vary. This may make one treatment more effective than the other for some people. 

Both Dysport and Botox injections only take a few minutes to administer. The longest part of each procedure is the application and drying of the anesthetic, rather than the injections themselves.

Dysport can start taking effect after a couple of days. Results can last up to 4 months. You’ll need to go back for more injections to maintain treatment effects.
