Botox and Dysport are two of the most popular brands of botulinum toxin used in cosmetic treatments. These muscle relaxants effectively smooth wrinkles and reduce facial expression lines that develop over time. When we laugh, frown, or show surprise, our facial muscles contract, causing the skin to fold and form wrinkles that become more noticeable with age.
How Botox and Dysport Work
Both Botox and Dysport function by blocking the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, preventing muscle contractions. In other words, these injections help:
- Reduce the formation of new wrinkles.
- Soften existing expression lines.
- Prevent deepening of facial creases.
The Most Common Areas for those treatments
Many patients choose Botox or Dysport to treat specific facial areas where wrinkles and fine lines appear most prominently. The most requested treatment areas include:
1. Forehead Wrinkles
- The forehead lines, caused by the contraction of the frontalis muscle, are among the first visible signs of aging.
- Botox injections smooth these horizontal expression lines, often referred to as “barcode lines.”
- After treatment, the forehead appears smoother and more youthful, while maintaining natural expressions.
2. Crow’s Feet (Periorbital Wrinkles)
- Crow’s feet develop from the repeated action of the orbicularis oculi muscle, which contracts when smiling or squinting.
- Botox or Dysport injections in this area reduce these fine lines, resulting in a refreshed, younger-looking eye area.
- Since the skin around the eyes is delicate, precise application is essential for natural-looking results.
3. Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)
- Frown lines, the vertical creases between the eyebrows, can make a person appear angry or stressed.
- These lines respond exceptionally well to botulinum toxin, making this one of the most requested treatment areas.
- After treatment, patients enjoy a smoother, more relaxed expression.
How Quickly Do Work any of those treatments?
- Results begin appearing within three days as the toxin starts blocking muscle contractions.
- Noticeable improvements occur after two days, with full results visible within one to two weeks.
- Expression lines soften or fade, depending on their depth, while still allowing for natural facial expressions.
