Smooth Wrinkles Caused by Facial Movement

Dysport is a fast-acting neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes specific facial muscles, softening the appearance of dynamic wrinkles like frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead creases, and crow’s feet. Its formulation allows for a more natural-looking spread, making it a preferred choice for subtle, balanced results. Dysport begins working within 2 to 3 days for most patients, offering smoother skin without a “frozen” look. Dysport is physician-administered for precise outcomes that align with your goals and enhance your natural expressions.

  • Chin dimpling or creasing
  • Neck bands caused by muscle movement

How Does Dysport Work?

Dysport works by temporarily blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction. When injected into targeted facial muscles, it inhibits the nerve signals that cause repetitive expressions, such as frowning or squinting, that eventually lead to dynamic wrinkles.

As the muscle activity is reduced, the overlying skin begins to smooth out, creating a more relaxed appearance. The effects are localized and carefully controlled to ensure natural-looking results, especially when administered by physicians like those at Melamed Weight & Wellness under Dr. Melamed’s guidance. We proudly offer Dysport in Deerfield and North Shore to help patients achieve smoother, refreshed, and natural results.

How is Dysport Different
From BOTOX?

While both Dysport and BOTOX are FDA-approved neuromodulators that treat dynamic wrinkles, they differ slightly in formulation. Dysport has a smaller protein structure, allowing it to diffuse more broadly across the treatment area. This can be an advantage when treating larger areas, like the forehead. Some patients also report that Dysport takes effect more quickly, with results often appearing within 2 to 3 days rather than a week.

Dysport FAQs

Is There Any Downtime With Dysport?

Dysport is a minimally invasive treatment with little to no downtime. You may notice slight redness, swelling, or a small bump at the injection site, but these effects typically resolve within a few hours. Most patients return to normal activities immediately after their session. However, it’s recommended that you avoid strenuous exercise and lying down for a few hours.

How Long Do Dysport Results Last?

On average, Dysport results last 3 to 4 months, though this can vary based on your metabolism, muscle strength, and treatment area. With regular maintenance, you may find that results last longer over time. Your providers, led by Dr. Melamed, will personalize each treatment to help extend the longevity of your outcome while maintaining a natural, refreshed look.

Will My Face Look Frozen or Overdone?

No. When administered properly by a trained physician, Dysport delivers subtle, natural results. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, all injections are performed by or under the supervision of Dr. Melamed, a double board-certified physician.
