Youthful, Natural-Looking Results

Dysport is an injectable neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—lines and creases created by facial expressions, including frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet. Similar to BOTOX®, the active ingredient in Dysport is botulinum toxin, which has a slightly different formula. Dysport prevents the constant contraction of targeted muscles, allowing the overlying skin to relax, leading to a refreshed, more youthful look. Many patients prefer Dysport for its faster onset of results and ability to smooth deeper forehead lines and creases.

A Tailored Treatment

During a Dysport treatment in Long Island, Dr. Sean Alemi, MD, FACS, injects the solution into specific muscle strands with a fine needle. The procedure usually takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number of areas being treated. The treatment involves minimal discomfort, with a sensation likened to a pinch. You can resume your regular activities immediately following your injections. Dr. Alemi’s expertise in facial aesthetics and the underlying facial anatomy ensures that Dysport is administered precisely, providing natural-looking results without losing your unique facial expressions.

A Quick and Easy Recovery

Recovery time after Dysport is minimal, with most patients experiencing some minor redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. These side effects typically subside within a few hours to a day. It’s important to avoid massaging the treated area for 24 hours and refrain from vigorous exercise on the day of your treatment.
