Physician-led Botox and Dysport treatments by a master aesthetic injector in McKinney, TX

Neurotoxins such as Botox and Dysport work beneath the surface and temporarily reduce the underlying muscle activity that causes moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines in adults. When treated with these inhibitors early enough toxins can help prevent the formation of wrinkles.

Botox-type injections can help an adult patient of any age improve his or her appearance, not only imparting a more youthful look, but also alleviating an overly concerned look, helping you look better refreshed or even more pleasant. The most commonly treated areas are those where muscle activity influences facial features, such as the following:

• Glabellar lines (a.k.a. “elevens” or frown lines)

• Wrinkles around the eyes, such as crow’s feet

• Forehead creases

• Corners of the mouth

• A “cobblestoned” appearance to the chin

There are many other “off-label” areas that Botox is used. If you suffer from any of the following, Botox may be a treatment option to consider: 

• Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating) in the armpits, hands or feet

• Migraines

• TMJ

• Grinding or Clenching Teeth

Each neurotoxin product contains the same active ingredient, botulinum toxin type A, and are designed to address the same types of wrinkles and other cosmetic concerns. So how are they different? The main distinction lies in their formulation, which influences the dosage used, how much the product spreads, and how quickly a patient might see the results. Consult with your provider to learn more about the differences between Botox and Dysport and to determine what treatment is right for you.
