At Aespala Medspa & Plastic Surgery Servicing Both Oak Brook & Elmhurst
At Aespala Medspa & Plastic Surgery serving Elmhurst & Oak Brook Botox and Dysport are offered as two popular neuromodulators. These wrinkle-relaxing injectables can smooth expression lines on the upper half of the face and help you safely fight the signs of aging. If you’re tired of seeing expression lines stare back at in the mirror or feel as though they’re making you look older than you are, these injectables significantly improve their appearance and give you smoother skin.
At Aespala Medspa & Plastic Surgery serving Oak Brook & Elmhurst Botox and Dysport are two cosmetic injectables designed to reduce moderate to severe expression lines on the upper half of the face. These injectables provide a solution for expression lines but can also help prevent the lines caused by natural facial movements from worsening. Upon injection, these neuromodulators work by relaxing the muscles that ultimately cause the formation of expression lines, and as a result, you’ll look more like your younger self again.
Botox®
Botox provides a cosmetic solution for the most common lines and wrinkles that form on the upper half of the face. It can smooth crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines. It also can treat the symptoms of certain medical conditions causing discomfort or affecting the quality of life.
If you have hyperhidrosis, TMJ pain, or migraines, you may be a candidate for a treatment plan with Botox to resolve these symptoms. Hyperhidrosis causes excessive sweating, typically from the armpits, but it can also affect the hands and feet. Injections into areas surrounding the sweat glands can block the release of sweat and, in doing so, temporarily resolve this condition and improve quality of life. Likewise, we can use Botox for both TMJ pain and migraine relief. Injections into the different jaw muscles will relax them, easing the tension that is often attributed to the pain stemming from TMJ. Injections into different areas of the head and neck muscles can block pain signals causing migraine pain and provide significant yet temporary relief. It also provides an effective solution for those suffering from neck spasms.
Most patients notice results within the first week of treatment. For some, results appear sooner; for others, it can take up to a week. As the active ingredient works to relax your muscles, you’ll see continued improvements in the appearance of your skin and expression lines over the first 30 days.
When you use Botox to treat medical conditions, the length of results will vary. If you’re interested in using this injectable for migraine pain, hyperhidrosis, TMJ pain, or neck spasms, we can discuss your treatment goals and provide you with more information about what type of results you can expect at your initial consultation. If you use this injectable to treat expression lines, you can expect your results to last approximately three to four months. Follow-up treatments are key for those who want to maintain consistent and long-lasting results.
Dysport®
Dysport is a cosmetic injectable that works similarly to Botox and uses botulinum toxin A to relax muscles in the treatment area. However, this injectable is this designed to treat the frown lines that form between the eyebrows, commonly referred to as 11s. If the aging process has resulted in a furrowed brow, even when your face is at rest, and your topical solutions are not improving the appearance of those lines and wrinkles, you may be a good candidate for Dysport®.
Once you undergo treatment with Dysport to treat your frown lines, you can expect a noticeable improvement in those lines within the first two to four days. Patients typically see the best results within the first two weeks, but it may take up to 30 days.
Like Botox, Dysport results last approximately three to four months. Follow-up treatments will be necessary when you see your frown lines gradually start to reappear as your body metabolizes the ingredients in the injectable.
If you are ready to smooth away your expression lines and achieve younger-looking skin or treat the symptoms of those medical conditions that negatively interfere with the quality of your life, we can design a treatment plan using neuromodulators to help meet your unique needs. Our experts can give you more information about these treatments, what you can expect, and determine if you are a good candidate.
