DYSPORT® (abobotulinumtoxinA)

On the market for 10 years, Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable treatment for the temporary improvement of the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines (glabellar lines) between the eyebrows in adults less than 65 years of age. Dysport is a neuromodulator, an injection of a small amount of botulinum toxin that treats frown lines when injected into underlying muscle, causing it to relax and gradually smooth out the appearance of the frown lines between the eyebrows. Frown lines are not just caused by aging, but from constant repetitive movements and muscle contractions, which means they can develop in younger adults too. If you’re starting to notice frown lines that are bothering you, it might be time to ask your specialist about Dysport.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I expect during my treatment?

Dysport is a quick (10-20 minute) procedure with minimal downtime, using a relatively small needle. During treatment, you will receive an injection into each of the five points between and over the eyebrows, two injection points above each eyebrow in the corrugator muscle and one injection point between the eyebrows in the procerus muscle. Ask your specialist about any precautions you should take after treatment. The most common side effects to be aware of after treatment are nose and throat irritation, headache, injection site pain and skin reaction, upper respiratory tract infection, eyelid swelling, sinus inflammation and nausea.

What results will I see?

In Dysport clinical studies, more than half of users saw an improvement in their frown lines in just 2-3 days. Don’t be afraid of a frozen look! Rather than freezing the treated area, Dysport relaxes the muscles that make you look angry or sad to provide natural-looking results. If you love your new look, talk to your specialist to develop a treatment schedule. As with any botulinum toxin product, you need to wait at least three months between treatments, and results may last up to five months. Don’t be surprised if you’re still loving your look at your next appointment — even four months after Dysport treatment, users reported looking at least four years younger than they did before their treatment. In fact, 97 percent of users who tried Dysport reported that they would receive the treatment again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Kysse?

Kysse is a cosmetic injection designed specifically for your lips. It’s a dermal filler made by Restylane.

Restylane Kysse is the first lip dermal filler to contain XpressHAn Technology™, which is a scientifically enhanced cross-linked gel made up of hyaluronic acid. Restylane Refyne and Restylane Defyne also contain this advanced filler technology.

With XpressHAn Technology, Kysse cosmetic injections give your lips a more natural-looking enhancement that lasts up to a year.

How does Kysse work?

As you get older, your lips lose volume, flexibility, and color. Kysse cosmetic injections restore the lost volume to improve the look of your lips.

Unlike other lip fillers, the XpressHAn Technology in Kysse restores your lip’s natural flexibility and mobility.

Are Kysse injections a good choice for me?

When you visit The Alternative Touch Wellness for a beauty consultation, the team of aesthetic experts first conducts an in-depth interview and examination to fully understand your beauty concerns and goals.

The premier medical spa offers many aesthetic treatments to address a wide range of needs. Kysse cosmetic injections may be a good choice for you if you’re unhappy with the look, shape, or texture of your lips.

Restylane Kysse is recommended for patients aged 21 and over. The cosmetic injections are not recommended for patients with a history of severe allergies.

What happens during Kysse injections?

After your initial consultation, your aesthetic expert designs your personalized treatment plan and reviews the details of your injections with you.

Restylane Kysse contains lidocaine to minimize discomfort during your treatment. However, if you’re sensitive to pain, the team may provide a local anesthetic prior to your cosmetic injection.

During your injections, your aesthetic expert carefully injects small amounts of the filler into specific areas of your lips. They massage your lips to distribute the gel to get the desired look. The injections take only a few minutes, and the results are immediate.

What can I expect after Kysse injections?

You may experience some redness at the site of the injections, but these side effects disappear within a few days. To prevent bruising, your provider requests that you avoid any strenuous activity for up to 48 hours after your Kysse injections.

To learn more about Kysse and how it can give you plump, beautiful, and natural-looking lips, call The Alternative Touch Wellness or request an appointment online today.
