Wrinkles develop over time as facial muscles contract during everyday expressions such as smiling, frowning, and squinting. As these movements repeat, lines can become deeper and more noticeable, even when the face is at rest. Dysport is a non-surgical injectable treatment designed to soften these expression lines and restore a smoother, more refreshed appearance while preserving natural facial movement.
At Dysport injections are performed under the care of Dr. Thomas Pane, a double board-certified plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. His advanced understanding of facial anatomy allows for precise placement that enhances appearance without creating stiffness or unnatural results.
Understanding Dysport Treatment
Dysport is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. These wrinkles commonly appear on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes. By reducing muscle activity in these regions, the overlying skin appears smoother and more relaxed.
Dr. Thomas Pane applies injection techniques refined through years of cosmetic and reconstructive facial surgery. His dual board certification supports careful dosing and muscle selection tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
Dysport Compared to Botox
Dysport and Botox are both widely used neuromodulators, but subtle differences may make one more suitable for certain patients. Some individuals notice a slightly faster onset of results with Dysport, particularly in larger treatment areas. Both products are FDA-approved and used safely in aesthetic medicine.
Dr. Pane evaluates muscle strength, wrinkle pattern, and aesthetic goals to determine whether Dysport or another neuromodulator is the most appropriate option.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Dysport injections are performed using a very fine needle and typically take only a few minutes to complete. Discomfort is minimal and often described as a brief pinching sensation. No sedation is required, and patients can return to normal daily activities immediately.
Temporary redness, swelling, or mild bruising at injection sites may occur but usually resolves quickly.
Recovery Timeline and Activity Expectations
Most patients experience little to no downtime following Dysport treatment. Normal activities can usually be resumed the same day, although strenuous exercise is often postponed briefly. Results begin to appear within days and continue to improve as the muscles relax.
Following post-treatment guidelines supports smooth healing and optimal results.
Longevity of Results and Maintenance
The effects of Dysport are temporary and typically last several months. Over time, muscle activity gradually returns, and wrinkles may reappear. Maintenance treatments help preserve smoother skin and allow for adjustments based on changing facial dynamics.
Regular follow-up appointments help maintain consistent, natural-looking results.
Combining Dysport With Other Cosmetic Treatments
Dysport is often combined with dermal fillers or other facial treatments to address multiple signs of aging at once. While Dysport relaxes dynamic wrinkles, fillers restore volume and support facial contours. Combined treatment planning can enhance overall facial balance.
Dr. Pane evaluates facial structure and long-term goals before recommending combination approaches.
Safety Considerations and Side Effects
Dysport has a long safety record when administered by a qualified medical professional. Temporary bruising is the most common side effect. In rare cases, the medication may affect nearby muscles, causing temporary weakness or asymmetry.
Dr. Pane discusses potential risks in detail before treatment and uses precise techniques to minimize complications.
