Your confidence can be adversely affected by frown lines, and they can make you look older or angrier than you are. You don’t have to live with these lines, though, because we have a solution that is designed to treat and smooth them out. At Injectability Clinic in Torrance, CA, we offer Dysport to effectively address frown lines.
Most people who have frown lines and don’t like them are good candidates for this treatment. It’s suitable for both men and women, and it’s a great option for anyone who feels like they look older than they are.
Here’s what needs to be true for you to be a good candidate:
Various brands produce neurotoxins that target various facial areas. However, Dysport is particularly effective at smoothing frown lines. It can effectively target those muscles responsible for forming lines between the eyebrows and relax them.
This allows the skin to smooth out and wrinkles to disappear. You can restore that well-rested and more youthful appearance with this injectable, regardless of how severe your wrinkles are.
Men and women between the ages of 18 and 64 are the best candidates for this injectable. Patients over 30 are most likely to opt for this injectable to treat their dynamic wrinkles. However, you don’t have to be over 30 to benefit from this treatment.
The severity of your lines and wrinkles will ultimately determine how you feel about the treatment. This injectable may be ideal for those in their 20s who have begun to show signs of premature aging.
It is important that we confirm that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients in the injectables before beginning this treatment. To ensure that receiving treatment won’t cause an allergic or adverse reaction, we will ask about your medical history and describe the ingredients.
This treatment should not be given to pregnant or nursing women until their primary care physician authorizes it. This is to protect the baby, as the effects of this treatment on children that young have not been studied.
You don’t have to take time off work or undergo a lengthy recovery process if you plan on having this injectable treatment to improve your appearance. It’s not invasive, and you can go right back to your normal routine once you’ve had treatment.
When patients get used to Botox injections, their bodies become tolerant to them, and the injections begin to lose their effectiveness. The switch to a different neurotoxin can keep your body on its toes and help you obtain the results you want.
Neither injectable is better than the other, but they work very similarly. Dynamic expression lines can be smoothed with either treatment, but some patients will benefit from one over the other. Using both options or alternating between them is up to you.
We can help you assess your problem area personally to determine the best plan of action to help you smooth frown lines and be happy with your results long term.
Several steps must be completed before your treatment to help ensure the best results. Patients are asked to arrive with a clean face that is free from skincare, lotions, or makeup.
Patients must also avoid alcohol 24 hours before their scheduled appointment, avoid hair removal treatments near the planned injection sites, and avoid blood-thinning medications five to seven days before the injection.
Despite not requiring downtime, this injectable does require some aftercare. For at least three hours following treatment, we ask patients to keep their heads elevated. Post-treatment, you should avoid strenuous workouts for a day or two, and avoid touching the treated areas or increasing your body temperature by visiting saunas or hanging out in a hot tub.
When applying makeup or skincare products near injection sites, be careful not to push too hard, and don’t take blood-thinning supplements or medications. You will receive a detailed list of instructions from your injector before and after your consultation so that you know exactly what to do before and after treatment.
It usually takes two to three days for the effects of this neurotoxin to manifest. You’ll start to notice your frown lines getting softer and flatter. Results are fast-acting, natural, and last for months. Based on how fast your body metabolizes the ingredients, you will see the best results within one to two weeks of your injection. Results will last from three to six months.
Maintaining a frown line-free expression long-term may require follow-up treatments. It only takes a few treatments each year to eliminate frown lines and enjoy smooth, youthful skin year-round.
