Dysport® for Men in The Woodlands, TX

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Melissa Chiang and board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Younghoon Cho offer several nonsurgical options for rejuvenating the skin. Dysport is an injectable wrinkle relaxer that, like BOTOX®, XEOMIN®, and Jeuveau™, acts to reduce and soften dynamic lines and wrinkles throughout the face. Dynamic wrinkles are caused by repetitive facial movements and expressions (like laughing, frowning, and smiling) that eventually make the muscles of the face taut. This causes the overlying skin to have a furrowed line that can be seen even when the face is relaxed. Dysport is uniquely formulated to treat some of the most common static wrinkles, like vertical lines between the brows, forehead wrinkles, and Crow's feet. It temporarily blocks signals to the underlying facial muscle to attain smooth, but natural-looking results.

Wrinkles and fine lines are a natural part of aging, but that doesn't mean you have to live with them. Dysport is an injectable wrinkle relaxer that is far less invasive than plastic surgery. There is little to no downtime involved, and men can resume normal activities immediately after treatment. Dysport is also a great alternative for patients who are not eligible for BOTOX or other brands of wrinkle relaxers. Dr. Cho can create a customized treatment plan to help you achieve the best results.

Dysport may be ideal if you want a nonsurgical option to correct moderate to severe vertical glabellar (frown) lines between the eyebrows. Since dynamic wrinkles and lines are caused by chronic muscle use, they can develop in younger patients and make them look sad, tired, or angry. Dysport is a fast, effective treatment that addresses dynamic wrinkles without creating a "frozen" facial appearance. Since Dysport's formula expands to treat a cluster of wrinkles, it's also ideal for Crow's feet, the small lines in the outer corners of the eyes. Many patients at Chiseled notice visible improvements in their appearance a few days following their procedure that typically remain for as long as four months.

Dysport injections are performed on-site in one of our treatment rooms and take about 10 – 20 minutes to complete. A local anesthetic or numbing cream is usually not needed because Dysport is injected using a fine-gauge needle that causes little to no pain. However, a numbing agent can be applied, if requested. The skin will be cleansed and the Dysport will be administered across the brow, followed by a cold compress to lessen swelling and bruising. Following your treatment at Chiseled, you can perform regular tasks, but you should avoid taxing activities for at least one day.

After your Dysport treatment, you may have light swelling and redness near the injected area, but generally, this will disappear within about 1 – 3 days. You should sleep propped up for at least one night and continue to apply cold compresses if needed. Patients can often see improvements within a few days as the Dysport formula works to soften and smooth the appearance of fine facial lines and wrinkles. These results should last for about 3 – 4 months, and we can schedule touch-up treatments at Chiseled in The Woodlands, TX to extend your results.

When determining whether or not you are a candidate for Dysport, a member of our team may also discuss the benefits of BOTOX, XEOMIN, and Jeuveau.

Should I get a wrinkle relaxer or a dermal filler?

Most people don't know the difference between wrinkle relaxers like Dysport and dermal fillers. Dysport relaxes the underlying muscles to treat dynamic wrinkles caused by smiling and frowning. Dermal fillers provide more fullness to address facial wrinkles and lines. During your consultation, we will listen to your concerns and help you determine the best course of action.

Can Dysport be combined with other treatments?

Dr. Cho offers several personalized treatments for men to boost their cosmetic results. Your injection plan may include one or a combination of wrinkle relaxers and dermal fillers to achieve your goals. Be open with our team during your initial assessment — so we can make a plan to meet these needs.

How often should I receive Dysport injections?

Your final results should last 3 - 4 months, but Dr. Cho can give you information about how often to get Dysport injections to maintain your results. You may schedule injections sooner or later depending on several factors, such as your age and the type of wrinkles you hope to treat.

If you want a nonsurgical option to revitalize your skin by smoothing the frown lines between your brows, Dysport wrinkle relaxer is a wonderful treatment. You can discuss Dysport and other available procedures at your consultation with seasoned dermatologist Dr. Melissa Chiang or skilled plastic surgeon Dr. Younghoon Cho to develop a unique anti-aging plan that fits your goals. We encourage you to contact Chiseled in The Woodlands, TX to learn more about Dysport and to schedule an appointment.
