Botox and Dysport – Your Complete Guide to Smoother, Younger-Looking Skin
Learn how Botox and Dysport reduce wrinkles, restore youthful skin, and deliver natural anti-aging results without surgery or downtime.
Fine lines, wrinkles, and expression lines are a natural part of aging, but today’s advanced injectable treatments make it possible to refresh your appearance without surgery or downtime. At MAKI Med Spa & Wellness, our expert injectors use FDA-approved neuromodulators like Botox® and Dysport® to soften wrinkles and restore a youthful, natural look.
This guide explains everything you need to know about Botox and Dysport—from how they work to what results you can expect—so you can feel confident in your treatment decision.
What Are Botox and Dysport?
Both Botox and Dysport are neuromodulators derived from botulinum toxin type A. They work by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines or crow’s feet.
- Botox® is the most well-known injectable and has been trusted for decades.
- Dysport® works in a similar way but may spread a little more quickly in the treated area, making it ideal for larger treatment zones like the forehead.
Both options are safe, effective, and widely used in aesthetics worldwide.
Benefits of Botox and Dysport
Patients choose injectables because they deliver noticeable, natural-looking results without surgery. Benefits include:
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles
- Prevents deeper wrinkle formation over time
- Quick treatment with minimal downtime
- Results that look natural—not “frozen”
- Can be combined with dermal fillers for full-face rejuvenation
Common Treatment Areas
Botox and Dysport can be used to treat a variety of areas, including:
- Forehead lines
- Frown lines (the “11s” between the eyebrows)
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines on the nose
- Lip lines or “smoker’s lines”
- Chin dimpling (“orange peel chin”)
- Neck bands (platysmal bands)
What to Expect During Treatment
Your injectable appointment at MAKI Med Spa & Wellness is quick and comfortable.
- Consultation – Your provider will evaluate your concerns, discuss your goals, and recommend Botox or Dysport based on your needs.
- Treatment – A fine needle is used to inject small amounts into targeted muscles. Most patients feel only minor pinches.
- Post-Care – You can return to normal activities right away, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, lying flat, or rubbing the area for a few hours.
Results and Longevity
- Initial results typically appear within 3–5 days for Dysport and 5–7 days for Botox.
- Full results are visible at about 2 weeks.
- Smooth, youthful results last 3–4 months, with some patients enjoying effects up to 6 months.
- Regular maintenance helps preserve a refreshed, youthful appearance.
Are Botox and Dysport Safe?
Yes. When performed by skilled injectors, both treatments are FDA-approved and considered safe. Side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as slight redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site. Choosing an experienced provider is key to ensuring safety and beautiful results.
Botox vs. Dysport – Which Is Right for You?
Both are excellent options, and the choice often comes down to personal preference and treatment goals:
- Botox – Precise, effective, widely recognized, great for small or concentrated areas.
- Dysport – Slightly faster onset, spreads more easily, often preferred for larger areas like the forehead.
At MAKI, your injector will help determine the best fit for your unique needs.
