Preparing for Your Treatment
-
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your aesthetic goals and assess your facial anatomy. Melanie RN, BSN or Abigail, RN, BSN will evaluate your skin and muscle activity to determine if Dysport is the right treatment for you. This personalized assessment ensures a tailored treatment plan designed to achieve natural, harmonious results.
-
Pre-Treatment Guidelines
To prepare for your Dysport session, we recommend avoiding blood-thinning medications and supplements for a few days prior, if medically cleared. This helps minimize the risk of bruising at the injection sites. Arriving with clean skin, free of makeup, is also advisable.
-
Discussing Your Goals
During your consultation, openly share your concerns and desired outcomes with your provider. We prioritize understanding your vision for a refreshed appearance. This collaborative discussion ensures that the treatment plan is perfectly aligned with your expectations for subtle, youthful results.
The Dysport® Procedure
-
Cleansing and Marking
First, the treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed to ensure a sterile environment. Your provider will then carefully mark the precise injection points on your face, targeting the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles. This meticulous step ensures accurate and effective product placement.
-
Topical Anesthetic
A topical numbing cream may be applied to the treatment area to enhance your comfort during the injections. While most patients tolerate the procedure well, this step helps to minimize any potential discomfort. We prioritize your experience and well-being throughout the process.
-
Precise Injections
Using a very fine needle, your provider will skillfully inject small amounts of Dysport into the targeted muscles. The injections are quick and typically well-tolerated, taking only a few minutes to complete. Our practitioners are adept at achieving natural-looking results with precision.

Post-Procedure Care
After the injections, your provider will offer specific aftercare instructions to optimize your results. You can typically resume most daily activities immediately following the procedure. We are here to answer any questions you may have regarding post-treatment care.
Schedule Your Consultation
Recovery After Treatment
Dysport requires minimal to no downtime, allowing you to return to your regular schedule quickly.
