What is Botox and Dysport?
Botox and Dysport is a protein that inactivates the nerves which normally would cause a muscle to contract. It has been used to treat spastic muscle disorders for many years. It is extremely safe and has no known long-term side effects. It's use for cosmetic purposes to treat wrinkles has been around for close to 10 years and over 1 million individuals have been treated. Using a tiny needle, it is administered with multiple injections just under the skin. Immediately after treatment, small red bumps may appear at the injection site, but will usually resolve within 15 minutes.
What is it Used For?
Botox and Dysport have been used very successfully for the treatment of wrinkles on the forehead, glabella (area between the brows), and crowsfeet (wrinkles adjacent to the outer eyes). One of the added benefits is that treatment of any of these areas can help to elevate the outer parts of the brow. This is referred to as the "brow lift." Most individuals are quite pleased with the brow lift as it creates a more pleasing arch in the brow. Other areas of the face can also be treated, but need to be approached with caution, since the results can sometimes be less predictable.
Lips –
Expected improvements include fullness, loss of vertical lines, more definition, as well as turning unwanted "frowns" into smiles, asymmetry can also be corrected.
Facial folds and wrinkles –
Almost all areas can be filled or treated to make the face more youthful, however mild wrinkles may be hard to improve.
Cheek bones –
One of the effects of aging can be flattened or sunken cheeks which results in a tired or sullen look. When this is corrected, an individual looks more rested, youthful, and happy. Some people have never had prominent cheek bones. With fillers, the cheeks can be enhanced or built up non-surgically giving a very natural look.
Tear troughs –
The area under the eyes can often have a dark circle or depression that is genetic or due to aging. This creates a tired and unhappy look. This is an area that responds very well to fillers.
Facial jowels –
The fat pad of the cheek can drop over time creating the look of a "jowel" along the jaw line. This can be easily hidden or camouflaged with fillers.
Chin –
The chin can be augmented with fillers to be more prominent. Fillers are a great alternative to a surgical implant.
Scars –
Scars that are depressed can often respond to elevation with a easily filler. In some cases of severe acne scarring, the depressed areas can be improved.
Hands -
The back of aged hands that have lost fat over time can appear "bony" and have a prominent appearance of veins. To correct the problem, fillers can be injected easily into this area.
Liquid Face Lift -
This is a term that is becoming more popular and refers to a complete facial rejuvenation through the use of fillers. It often involves filling of the major folds on the face, restoring and volumizing the lips, as well as correcting other features of aging especially the cheeks and jowels. This is a relatively painless one-hour procedure which can result in someone easily looking 10 years younger.
