What is Botox v.s. Dysport? - Botox and Dysport are among the most popular cosmetic treatments available today, and can provide dramatic results with minimal downtime. Botox is an injectable form of botulinum toxin type A, while Dysport is a form of botulinum toxin type B. Both work to block nerve signals in the facial muscles, temporarily paralyzing them. This in turn reduces the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging. Botox and Dysport are commonly used to treat “crow’s feet” (wrinkles around the eyes), vertical lip lines, forehead wrinkles, and brow furrows. In addition to these cosmetic treatments, botulinum toxins can also be used to treat a variety of medical conditions, including muscle spasms, Shoulder / Neck Tension Head aches & excessive sweating. Both Botox & Dysport have been proven through clinical trials to be safe and effective treatments for wrinkles and other signs of aging.

What Factors Play a Role In How Long Neurotoxin Injections Last? - Factors to take into account when it comes to the effects of neurotoxins are: Length of time you've been receiving the same neurotoxin, Body Metabolism / Physical Activity & number of total units injected.
Is there any downtime? - After receiving Botox injections, there is typically minimal downtime required.
