BOTOX® and Dysport® for Wrinkles – Are you noticing fine lines or wrinkles that make you feel less approachable or more tired than you’d like? The lines between your eyes, known as the “11’s,” or the crow’s feet around your eyes, can age you faster than you realize. Fortunately, BOTOX® and Dysport® offer simple, non-surgical ways to restore a youthful, refreshed look.
How Do BOTOX® and Dysport® Work?
BOTOX® and Dysport® are neurotoxin injections that work by relaxing specific muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. Dynamic wrinkles form due to repetitive facial movements like frowning, raising your brows, or smiling. These treatments prevent these muscles from contracting fully, softening existing lines and helping prevent new ones from forming. Many men and women find that these treatments boost their confidence, enhance their mood, and give them a fresher look.
The Difference Between BOTOX® and Dysport®
While both BOTOX® and Dysport® work similarly, some people prefer one over the other based on personal results. Dysport® tends to activate slightly faster than BOTOX®, which some clients appreciate. Dosages between the two also differ; Dysport® can be slightly more cost-effective per unit. However, your ideal choice depends on your unique facial structure and desired outcome.
How Much Will You Need?
The amount of BOTOX® or Dysport® you need varies by individual. The image below provides a general guideline on unit requirements for different areas, but it’s crucial to understand that every face is unique. A professional injector will assess your needs and determine the exact dosage for the best results. Remember, just because a friend uses a specific amount doesn’t mean it will work for you—personalized treatment ensures the best outcome.
Side Effects and Precautions
Like any medical treatment, BOTOX® and Dysport® may have side effects, such as temporary bruising or headaches. In rare cases, eyebrow or eyelid drooping may occur. Only licensed professionals like MDs, RNs, and NPs working under a physician are authorized to perform these injections in North Carolina, ensuring you’re in safe, qualified hands.
Preparing for Your Appointment
To minimize bruising, avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, Vitamin E, fish oil, and omega-3 supplements at least a week before your appointment. If you’re on prescription blood thinners, consult your primary physician before making changes to your routine. On the day of your appointment, eat a good breakfast and stay hydrated to reduce lightheadedness during the procedure.
