Does Dysport make you look younger?


Dysport treatment is a type of botulinum toxin similar to Botox, commonly used as a cosmetic treatment to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. By temporarily weakening facial muscles, Dysport can provide a more youthful look.

At Aspire Medical Aesthetics, our expert practitioners administer Dysport to block nerve signals to the muscles, causing them to relax and soften. This reduction in muscle activity minimizes the prominence of wrinkles and lines formed due to repeated muscle contractions over time. We strategically inject Dysport into specific facial muscles, preventing muscle contractions and reducing wrinkles.

Our clients often choose to have Dysport applied to the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes (commonly referred to as crow’s feet). Smoothing out these lines and wrinkles results in a younger, smoother-looking face. The effects are often noticeable within a few days of the treatment and can last for up to four months, providing smoother skin and enhanced facial contours.

While Dysport can significantly reduce the appearance of aging, it does not permanently eliminate wrinkles or stop the aging process. The injections must be repeated every 3-4 months to maintain the desired results.

We prioritize your safety. Dysport is generally considered a safe procedure, but we will discuss potential side effects with you. These may include pain or bruising at the injection site, headache, swelling, dry eyes, and in rare cases, drooping of the eyebrow or eyelid.

If you’re concerned about wrinkles and fine lines and are seeking a non-surgical solution, Dysport could be an excellent option for you. However, it’s not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Before undergoing Dysport treatment at Aspire Medical Aesthetics, you’ll have a consultation with our qualified healthcare providers who will assess your individual needs and determine if Dysport is right for you. The procedure typically takes about 15-30 minutes, and the injections are administered using a fine needle, ensuring minimal discomfort.

What to expect when you get Dysport injections?


Dysport injections are a renowned treatment for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, particularly around the forehead and eyes. This neurotoxin injection, similar to Botox, can temporarily enhance your appearance while preserving your natural beauty.

Before the Procedure:

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our highly trained practitioners. They will assess your skin, discuss your aesthetic goals, and explain the procedure, including its benefits and potential risks. The practitioner will also take a detailed medical history to ensure you are a suitable candidate for Dysport. On the day of the treatment, your designated areas will be marked for treatment. A local anesthetic may be applied to minimize any discomfort during the procedure.

During the Procedure:

Our practitioners administer the Dysport injections using a very fine needle, directly into designated muscles in your face. Although you may feel a slight pinch or discomfort, the procedure is quick and usually well-tolerated, often completed within 10 to 20 minutes.

After the Procedure:

Post-procedure, you may experience some minor side effects such as redness, swelling, bruising, or a headache. To reduce swelling, we recommend applying cold compresses. It’s important to avoid touching the treated areas, strenuous activity, heat exposure, and lying down for a few hours post-treatment to prevent the medication from spreading to other areas. Sun exposure should also be avoided as it can increase swelling and redness.

Early Effects and Duration of Results:

We aim for noticeable results within two to three days after treatment, but it can take up to a week or two for the full effect. The smoothing effect on your wrinkles can last for about three to four months, although this varies from person to person and is influenced by factors such as age, skin condition, and lifestyle. As the Dysport gradually wears off, the wrinkles and fine lines will gradually return.

At Aspire Medical Aesthetics, we believe in long-term care for our clients. Regular maintenance treatments are necessary to keep your skin looking its best. Our team will recommend follow-up appointments to monitor the results and determine if additional injections are necessary. We ensure that all treatments are administered by trained and certified professionals to maximize your safety and achieve the best results. We look forward to helping you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Who is not a good candidate for Dysport?


Dysport is one of the popular treatments we offer to reduce wrinkles and rejuvenate the skin.

However, we understand that Dysport isn’t for everyone. Individuals who are allergic to its components, such as cow’s milk protein, or to any other botulinum toxin product like Botox or Xeomin, are advised to avoid this treatment. Indeed, any past allergic reaction to these products should also be considered, due to Dysport’s active ingredient, botulinum toxin type A.

It is also important to note that Dysport is not recommended for those with active skin infections or conditions at the injection site. Injecting Dysport in these instances could potentially exacerbate the condition or increase the risk of infection spread.

We take extra caution with individuals suffering from neuromuscular disorders like ALS, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome as Dysport may worsen their muscle weakness. Those with facial muscle weakness are generally not considered suitable candidates for Dysport.

We advise against Dysport for people with bleeding disorders or those on blood thinners due to the increased risk of bleeding complications. It is also not recommended for those who have had or are planning to have facial surgery.

At Aspire Medical Aesthetics, client safety is our utmost priority. Therefore, we don’t recommend Dysport for those with uncontrolled medical conditions, such as asthma, emphysema, or heart disease, as it may interfere with their treatment plans.

Pregnant or breastfeeding women are advised to consult their doctors before opting for Dysport. At present, there is insufficient safety data for its use during pregnancy or nursing, so it’s best to proceed with caution.

Ensuring the efficacy and safety of Dysport treatment for each of our clients is paramount. Our team will conduct a thorough discussion of your medical history, current health condition, and medications before recommending this treatment.

How long does it take for Dysport to fully settle?


At Aspire Medical Aesthetics, we pride ourselves on offering cutting-edge, non-surgical cosmetic treatments like Dysport. This injectable neuromodulator is widely used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, providing a smoother, more youthful appearance.

After a Dysport treatment at our Medspa, you can expect the onset of its effect to begin within 2 to 3 days. However, the initial results may not be visible until a full week has passed. During this time, you may experience some swelling or bruising in the treated area, which is a normal part of the injection process.

To ensure the best possible results, we advise our patients to avoid excessive facial movement or massaging the treated area, which can disrupt the settling process of Dysport. You may start to notice the initial effects of Dysport within 24 to 48 hours, with a gradual improvement in the reduction of wrinkles and fine lines over the following days.

For Dysport to fully settle and achieve maximum effects, it usually takes between a week to 10 days. However, these timelines can vary based on individual factors including your age, skin condition, the dosage used during treatment, and the size of the treated area.

To aid the settling process, we recommend not rubbing or massaging the treated area for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Regular follow-up appointments at Aspire Medical Aesthetics will also be scheduled to monitor your progress and ensure optimal results.
