Botox and Dysport

Botox and Dysport are both medications that can be injected into the skin to improve the appearance of wrinkles caused by muscle contraction.

Botox is a medication which most people are familiar with. However, Dysport recently gained its cosmetic approval. Although these two medications have some differences, they achieve the same goal. Both of these medications have FDA approval to treat the ‘glabellar frown lines.’ These are the lines or wrinkles that can be seen between the brows, caused by excessive muscle contraction. According to Dr. Doppelt, Botox and Dysport both provide the ‘best bang for your cosmetic dollar.’ This is because both these medications are very effective, very reliable and are very predictable in their results.

Normally, the rejuvenating affects of Botox and Dysport last for around three months. This can be seen as a double edged sword, which means that if the patient likes the results (which they almost always do) they usually don’t last longer than three months. However, if the patient does not like the results they will usually wear off within three months.

It is important that patients know that only experienced and trained providers like Dr. Doppelt should administer these injections. This is because there is no ‘cookie cutter’ technique which can be used to ensure the desired results. Instead, the dermatologist must look carefully at the patient’s facial symmetry and muscle movements in order to achieve the desired results. It is also an important point for the patients not to simply search for the least expensive provider of these medications. Many times when these medications are advertised for low prices, the dosage used is also lower than indicated. This could possibly result in unpredictable results or results that do not last.

The injection of the Botox and Dysport medications is virtually painless, which allows the patient to leave the dermatologist’s office and continue their daily routine. The results of these medications can be seen as early as 24 to 48 hours after the injection.
