Dysport
For the past 25 years, Dysport has been used in over 70 countries to help patients resolve unwanted wrinkles and fine lines in the complexion, giving them a new lease on life while boosting self-confidence in their appearance.
Dysport works to gently minimize frown lines between the brows without compromising the spontaneity of your facial expressions. The contracting muscles responsible for creating the creases are relaxed, smoothing away your worry lines and allowing your natural beauty and vivacity to shine through.
How does Dysport Work?
Much like BOTOX, Dysport has as its key ingredient the botulinum toxin, a neuromodulator that blocks the nerve cells signaling the muscles to contract. The result is rejuvenated skin and a more youthful aesthetic overall.

How does Dysport differ from BOTOX?
Dysport is injected at a deeper level than BOTOX, so it can affect a wider area of the face, such as the forehead. This ability to treat a greater number of wrinkles with one treatment makes Dysport an excellent choice in the right situations.
In addition, Dysport tends to work a bit faster than BOTOX, with results in as little as 1-2 days. When compared with the BOTOX results window of 2-5 days, this can be significant, especially if you are trying to get ready for an important public event with little time.
The providers at Montilla Plastic Surgery will help to determine if Dysport is right for your needs during your confidential consultation at our Greater Boston Area or Worcester offices.
Details of the procedure
Your practitioner will begin by assessing the target areas of your face, such as the area between the eyebrows or next to the eyes. Once the target points are identified, a micro-thin needle will be injected, applying Dysport deep below the skin where it can spread to the necessary skin cells.
You will experience only the minor discomfort of a slight pinch when the needle is injected. Your doctor will be happy to provide you with a topical anesthetic if needed, but most clients find the procedure to be painless. The total time of the treatment is less than 30 minutes from start to finish.
How can I get started with Dysport?
The first step in determining whether Dysport is right for your anti-aging regimen is to consult with the Montilla Plastic Surgery team at our offices in Greater Boston Area and Worcester. During this initial session, we will perform a physical examination, review your medical records, and begin to create a customized plan of action for resolving your most pressing cosmetic concerns.
If Dysport turns out not to be an option, rest assured our office will be able to prescribe an alternative that accomplishes the same goals to your complete satisfaction.
