Dysport

Dysport and Botox injections are neurotoxins classified within the same category that temporarily inhibit nerve-derived chemical signals responsible for muscle contraction and the development of expression lines.

By relaxing facial muscles triggered during smiling, laughing, or frowning, these neurotoxins function as neuromodulators. Both Dysport and Botox have undergone FDA approval for numerous years.

Although Dysport exhibits faster onset, typically within one to two days, the duration of results for both treatments spans approximately 3 to 6 months. Within our practice, we employ Botox and Dysport, administered by skilled aestheticians capable of providing safe and effective treatments resulting in remarkable outcomes. 

The most common areas of the face that can be treated with Dysport include the forehead, frown lines (also known as glabellar lines), crow’s feet, and bunny lines (lines around the nose). Other areas include chin dimpling and neck bands. 

With Dysport, you’ll experience fast results that unveil a youthful and radiant look lasting for three to six months, depending on the treated area. Extend your results by scheduling touch-up injections and practicing good skincare and sun protection habits. Moreover, the positive effects of increased self-confidence and radiance endure beyond that timeframe. 

The Dysport dosage typically depends on the area being treated and the extent of the individual’s condition. 

After receiving Dysport injections, minimal side effects may occur such as temporary and mild bruising and tenderness at the injection site. 

Dysport injections are generally safe and FDA-approved.

Dysport injections provide a rapid-acting solution that yields visible improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe lines and wrinkles within 2 to 3 days. 

At the Skin Rejuvenation Clinic in Edina, expert providers prioritize your safety and ensure a painless procedure. Any discomfort, if experienced, is minimal and temporary. 

To optimize your preparation for the Dysport procedure and mitigate the potential risks of bruising or swelling, it is advisable to abstain from consuming alcohol, anti-inflammatories (such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, or Aleve), aspirin, and Vitamin E for at least one week before the treatment. Following this recommendation can significantly minimize any undesired side effects. 

Dysport can be synergistically combined with other treatment modalities based on your treatment objectives and the professional recommendations of our experienced practitioners in Edina. We will assist you in selecting the most suitable options to achieve your desired outcome. 

The cost is subject to variation based on the required number of units and the treatment area. 

There are certain precautions to be taken post-procedure. Refrain from massaging, touching, or applying pressure at the injection site. Additionally, avoid using makeup for at least 4 hours after treatment. Also, abstain from using hot tubs and saunas for up to 24 hours following the procedure 

Dysport is an effective treatment for neck spasms that effectively blocks the release of acetylcholine at the nerve terminal within the muscle. This inhibits muscular tone and overactivity, resulting in muscle relaxation. 

The recommended age for Dysport treatments is 18 and above. 

There are contraindications for Dysport. People who have had an allergic reaction to any of the ingredients in Dysport should not use it. People who have an infection or skin condition at the site of injection should also avoid using Dysport.

Additionally, people with certain medical conditions such as myasthenia gravis, Eaton-Lambert Syndrome, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) should not be treated with Dysport. Lastly, women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use Dysport.
