Dysport

Want younger, glowing and more beautiful-looking skin almost instantly? Dysport® is a cutting-edge, FDA-approved, cosmetic technology which has been used in over 24 countries for more than 16 years. A gentle, minimally-invasive procedure, Dysport® injections work to effectively rejuvenate your skin for a fresher, naturally youthful appearance.

Ideal for:

Eliminating forehead lines
Smoothing out crows feet
Minimizing frown lines between the eyebrows
Reducing wrinkles around the mouth
Improving nasal squint lines

At Okanagan Skin Care Centre, we strive to always bring our patients the safest, most advanced anti-aging therapies. Very similar to the workings of BOTOX, Dysport® treatment is a soft and natural way to banish tell-tale signs of aging and help you feel more like yourself again.

We use Dysport® from Galderma, a minimally-invasive injection containing Botulinum Toxin Type A. Very similar to BOTOX treatment, Dysport is an effective non-surgical, anti-aging procedure and works by gently relaxing any muscles which cause unwanted facial wrinkles. During an in-depth consultation with one of our skin care experts, you will be able to discuss the aesthetic goals of your treatment beforehand so they can identify certain points of injection to give you the most successful results.

Advantages

Dysport® has a quicker onset (2-5 days) than Botox (4-7 days)
Has longer lasting results (4 months vs 3 months for BOTOX)
It has a softer and more natural feel
A non-invasive, quick procedure
No recovery time
Depending on the treatment area, Dysport has the advantage of diffusing more
More cost-effective than Botox®

Duration

Dysport is an in-office procedure and is quick and painless, with treatment times typically lasting no longer than 15 minutes. However, these times may vary depending on the area being treated.

Number of treatments

Because the effects of Dysport are not permanent, successive treatments every 4 months are required to maintain the natural, youthful results.

Results

While you may experience some slight irritation at the injection site or a mild headache, these side effects subside very quickly and most patients enjoy visible results in as little as 2-3 days after the treatment.

At Okanagan Skin Care Centre, we are committed to providing our clients with exceptional care and customized treatment plans to ensure that all your aesthetic goals are achieved in a natural, long-lasting way.

Dysport FAQ

How do the Dysport injections work?

When injected, Dysport inactivates certain facial nerves, which allow your muscles to relax for up to 4 months, effectively softening and eliminating any unwanted wrinkles.

Will the Dysport treatment be painful?

Dysport is injected using an ultra-fine needle which means that the procedure is relatively quick and painless. However, a topical numbing solution can be applied to the treatment area prior to the procedure to ensure that you are kept as relaxed and comfortable as possible.

What can I do to prepare for my Dysport therapy?

Prior to your Dysport injection, it is imperative to talk with one of our qualified practitioners about any precautions you should take regarding the cosmetic procedure. Typically Dysport treatment is not recommended for:

Patients allergic to botulinum toxin.
Patients with an infection or swelling in the treatment area.
Patients with muscle weakness in the treatment area.

What can I expect after my Dysport treatment?

There are some very mild side effects associated with Dysport such as mild irritation at the injection site or a slight headache. However, both of these are minor and will quickly resolve themselves. Dysport has a very quick onset and typically, you will be able to enjoy your results within 2-3 days of your procedure.
