Our team focuses on creating personalized plans that suit your unique needs, so you can achieve natural, youthful results.

What is Botulinum Toxin?

Botox is a popular treatment designed to temporarily reduce the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles. It’s made from botulinum neurotoxin, a neurotoxic protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which works by causing flaccid paralysis of the muscles responsible for creating wrinkles. Whether you want to smooth forehead lines, crow’s feet, or frown lines, Botox is a trusted solution with a long history of safe and effective use.

How Do Botox Injections and Dysport Work?

Both Botox and Dysport use botulinum toxin type A to relax targeted muscles under the skin. This reduces the repetitive movements that cause wrinkles, leaving your skin smoother and more youthful-looking. Dysport is a botulinum toxin injection that has a lighter formula that spreads more easily, making it ideal for larger areas like the forehead versus frown lines.

Alternative Treatments

When it comes to facial rejuvenation, Botox and Dysport are just the tip of the iceberg. At Eyre Esthetics, we also offer a variety of alternative treatments to help you achieve your desired look. Dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid and calcium hydroxylapatite, are excellent for restoring lost volume and smoothing out wrinkles. These fillers can plump up areas like the cheeks and lips, giving you a youthful, refreshed appearance.

Chemical peels are another fantastic option. They work by removing the outermost layer of skin, revealing a smoother, more even complexion underneath. This treatment can significantly improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

For those looking to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture, laser skin resurfacing is a highly effective treatment. It targets deeper layers of the skin, promoting natural healing and rejuvenation.

Microdermabrasion and microneedling are also popular choices. These treatments help to exfoliate the skin and promote the production of new, healthy skin cells, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

For medical conditions such as chronic migraines, overactive bladder, and cervical dystonia, alternative treatments may include oral medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes. It’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of treatment for your specific condition.

Safety and Side Effects

Botox injections are generally considered safe when administered by a qualified healthcare professional. However, like any medical treatment, they come with potential side effects. Common side effects include bruising, swelling, and headaches at the injection site. These are usually mild and resolve on their own within a few days.

More serious side effects, such as eyelid drooping, facial asymmetry, and difficulty swallowing, can occur but are rare. Allergic reactions to Botox are also rare but can happen. It’s crucial to inform your healthcare professional of any medical conditions, including allergies, before receiving Botox injections.

Certain medical conditions, such as urinary incontinence, or medications like aminoglycosides, can contraindicate Botox injections. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult with their healthcare professional before undergoing Botox treatment to ensure it’s safe for them.

What to Expect During Your Visit

  1. Consultation: We start with a detailed consultation to understand your needs and explain the treatment options.
  2. Treatment: Using a fine needle, we inject Botox or Dysport into the specific muscles responsible for wrinkles. The process is quick, and most clients find it very comfortable. Injection sites may experience minor bruising and swelling, but these side effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few days.
  3. Results: You’ll start to see smoother skin within 3-7 days for Botox or 1-3 days for Dysport. Results typically last 3-4 months.

Benefits of Botox and Dysport for Frown Lines

  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Prevents new wrinkles from forming
  • Treats severe frown lines
  • Boosts confidence with natural-looking results
  • Minimal downtime

Results and Recovery

The results of Botox injections can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, depending on the individual and the area treated. After receiving Botox injections, you can expect to see a noticeable reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The full effects can take up to 2 weeks to manifest, so patience is key.

One of the great advantages of Botox injections is that you can return to your normal activities immediately afterward. However, it’s advisable to avoid strenuous exercise and heavy lifting for 24 hours to minimize the risk of complications. Mild bruising and swelling at the injection site can occur but typically resolve on their own within a few days.

To maintain the desired results, Botox injections may need to be repeated every 3 to 6 months. Following the after-care instructions provided by your healthcare professional is essential to ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of complications.

Is Botox Right for You if You Have Chronic Migraine?

Botox is a great option if you’re looking to reduce wrinkles and refresh your appearance. Botulinum toxins, including different types like Botox and Dysport, offer various injectable treatments with specific applications in both medical and cosmetic fields. It’s safe for most people, but a consultation with our experts will help determine if it’s the right fit for you. We’ll also discuss any potential side effects and how to get the most out of your treatment.
