That's why scheduling an appointment with our injectors for Dysport in the Scottsdale area is a great choice.

Smooth Confidence: Dysport® for Frown Line Reduction

Dysport® is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment for temporarily lessening or eliminating moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Like BOTOX® Cosmetic, Dysport is injected directly into the muscles under your skin, weakening them to the point where they can no longer contract, reducing the presence of fine lines and wrinkles.

What Can Dysport Help Me With?

Medically, Dysport injectable is used to treat excessive underarm sweating; symptoms of cervical dystonia, which include neck pain and abnormal head position; and muscle spasms.

Cosmetically, Dysport injections are used to treat the following:

Forehead furrows
Frown lines
Crow’s feet
Skin bands on the neck

What’s the Dysport Injectable Procedure Like?

Using a very fine needle, Dysport is injected directly into facial muscles that are causing furrows and lines. No anesthetic is required, but some doctors choose to numb the area to be injected with ice packs or topical anesthetic cream. Results can usually be seen within a few days of treatment, and typically last up to four months, although areas that are treated on a regular basis may retain results longer. Injections should be given only by qualified medical professionals; that's why we recommend you choose us for Dysport in the Scottsdale area.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dysport?

Pain
