FAQ

Both Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved neuromodulators used to relax facial muscles and reduce wrinkles. Dysport typically diffuses more quickly, making it ideal for larger treatment areas, while Botox may offer more precision for smaller zones like crow’s feet or frown lines.

 Results generally last 3 to 4 months, depending on your metabolism, treatment area, and dosage. Some patients may see longevity up to 5 months with consistent treatment.

 No significant downtime is required. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site, which usually resolves within a few hours.

Dysport results may appear as early as 2–3 days post-treatment, while Botox typically takes 3–7 days. Full results are generally visible within 10–14 days.
