Botox/Dysport

BOTOX® and Dysport® are the two brands of neuromodulators that we offer here at Belle. Botox and Dysport are injected into a specific muscle to temporarily reduce or pause muscle activity. This will reduce the appearance of fine lines, while preventing and treating deeper lines in the face. We strive to make your treatment results natural, while maintaining expression but improving the overall quality of the skin.

What can I expect during a Botox/Dysport treatment?

  • Your provider will collect a detailed medical history, review prior cosmetic treatments (if applicable), review consent forms for the treatment, answer any questions you may have about the treatment itself and/or post care.
  • Photos for your chart will be taken to ensure the treatment is tailored to your specific needs.
  • The provider will review recommended dosing and ensure that this aligns with your budget.
  • Your face will be cleansed and prepped for treatment.

How long is a Botox/Dysport treatment?

  • If you are a new patient to the practice, your appointment will be approximately 30 minutes.
  • If you are an established patient, your appointment will be approximately 15-20 minutes.

What can I expect after my Botox/Dysport treatment?

  • You may leave with what appears to be a “mosquito bite” appearance to the injected areas. These will resolve in typically 15-20 mins after injection.
  • We ask you do not apply make up to the areas injected for minimally 6 hours to reduce risk of infection
  • Do not lay down or lay flat for 4 hours
  • Do not exercise same day of treatment
  • No facials, hats or any treatment that may compress the injected areas.

How long will it take for me to see my results? And how long will they last?

  • Botox typically take 2 full weeks to take effect, and will last approximately 12 weeks.
  • Dysport typically begins to take effect day 4-5 and full effect at 2 weeks, and will last approximately 12 weeks.
  • Your dose influences your duration. Underdosing can lead to earlier movement.

Are there any contraindications to this treatment?

  • Must be over the age of 18 years old
  • Cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding

Additional important information:

  • We like to see you back in the office between 2-3 weeks to ensure your treatment was successful and that refinements do not need to be made.
  • A refinement is the need for additional product- this is not complimentary. We will discuss what additional costs would look like and if this is within your budget.
