Dysport is a prescription injection for temporary improvement in the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age.

Over time, the muscles above and between the eyebrows repeatedly contract and tighten, causing wrinkles. But, with just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and over the eyebrows, Dysport blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines.

Botox / Dysport Q&A
Where is BOTOX Cosmetic used the most?
This FDA-approved treatment is quick and affordable. BOTOX Cosmetic works to relax muscle activity below the skin surface, providing a smoother, softer appearance.

BOTOX is injected into the muscle tissue with a very fine needle. Small doses of BOTOX Cosmetic are most commonly placed between eyebrows (glabellar), the forehead, and around the eyes (treating “crow’s feet”). The upper lip area, chin, and neck are also popular areas for BOTOX Cosmetic treatment.

BOTOX Cosmetic may be recommended to help relax muscle activity causing vertical lip lines and an aging appearance around the mouth. Strong vertical muscle bands in the neck can result in appearance of premature aging and can also be improved with BOTOX Cosmetic.

What is the dosage of BOTOX Cosmetic?
The dosage of BOTOX varies for every patient. BOTOX is measured and priced in “units”. The average dosage of BOTOX Cosmetic ranges from 20 units to 50 units.

Prior to BOTOX treatment at Medical First New York, we will discuss your areas of concern, assess your muscle activity and strength, and provide you a recommended dosage.

How long do BOTOX Cosmetic treatments last?
BOTOX Cosmetic lasts an average of 3-5 months. BOTOX Cosmetic is a neurotoxin, onabotulinumtoxin that reduces muscle strength. BOTOX effects are gradual, taking up to 2 weeks for full effect and will wear off gradually.

How is BOTOX Cosmetic different than Dermal Fillers?
BOTOX does not work the same way that dermal fillers soften lines and wrinkles. BOTOX provides a soft, natural, youthful appearance by creating a smoother surface.

What is appropriate age to start having BOTOX Cosmetic injections?
The most common range in age of patients are 30-65, with men traditionally not starting until their 40s. We are seeing more proactive consumers in their 20s as they see the skin creasing during expression, but are choosing to weaken the muscles to avoid the surface breakdown and visible vertical and horizontal lines (wrinkles) from happening.

What happens if I stop having BOTOX Cosmetic?
Most patients return for BOTOX Cosmetic 2-3 times per year, maintaining their youthful appearance. As BOTOX wears off, the underlying muscle strength returns. With continued treatment of BOTOX Cosmetic, you can prevent creases and folds that cause an aged appearance.
