What are Botox® Cosmetic and Dysport®?
Botox and Dysport are purified forms of botulinum toxin. Both injectables temporarily block nerve signals that stimulate muscle contraction. As muscles relax, the wrinkles they cause are diminished or eliminated.
What types of wrinkles are treated with Botox and Dysport?
Botox and Dysport treat dynamic wrinkles, which develop over years of repetitive muscle movements. Dynamic wrinkles include:
- Crow’s feet
- Frown lines
- Forehead furrows
- Bunny lines on the upper nose
- Neck bands
How do dermal fillers work?
Dermal fillers contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid, microparticles of calcium, or poly-L-lactic acid. When hyaluronic acid is injected under your skin, it immediately adds volume that plumps up skin and smoothes away wrinkles.
Dermal fillers with calcium also add volume, then trigger the production of collagen to strengthen and tighten skin. Poly-L-lactic acid fillers gradually stimulate collagen production over time.
