MUSCLE RELAXANTS

As individuals we all have different reasons for wanting to change the way we look and ultimately the way we feel. At Skin Agents you will receive a complimentary free consultation with our highly experienced nurse practitioner and state trainer RN in cosmetic injectable treatments.

The muscles of the face allow us to express a range of emotions such as happiness, sadness and anger. Over time the repeated use of facial muscles cause lines and wrinkles to occur, particularly around the frown area, and even make you look angry or worried when you are not. Over time these lines will get deeper.

WHAT IS DYSPORT?

Dysport is a type of botulinum toxin, a naturally occurring protein extract and is generally tolerated well in the minute levels administered for cosmetic use.

HOW DOES DYSPORT WORK?

A very small dose of injected in the specific frown muscles causing lines and wrinkles. Once the muscles are relaxed the overlying wrinkles in the frown will soften or reduce. The treatment takes around 15 minutes and is relatively pain free.

HOW QUICKLY WILL I SEE RESULTS FROM DYSPORT?

You may notice the Dysport working in 2 to 3 days. The peak effect is usually 14 to 21 days. At Skin Agents, our nurse practitioner and nurse injector will review your treatment result at 2 weeks to ensure perfect results. Dysport has been proven to work for 3 to 5 months after the first treatment. If you do not like the effect and decide not to continue with the treatment, your muscle activity will simply return to normal and wrinkles will eventually reappear.

WHAT RESULTS SHOULD I EXPECT?

When the frown lines for instance are relaxed after a Dysport treatment, the skin around the area will look smooth and less wrinkled. Dysport targets, very accurately the muscles that are causing the wrinkles to occur and untreated areas will move as normal. You will still be able to smile naturally and use normal facial expressions. The only difference is everyone one will notice how fresh and relaxed you look!

CAN DYSPORT CAUSE SIDE EFFECTS?

As with any cosmetic medical treatment occasional side effects can occur. These can include headaches, pain, bruising swelling itchiness and feelings of pins and needles or redness at the injection site. Muscle weakness such as drooping eyelids or eyebrows along with puffiness of the eyelids may occur.
