Botox & Dysport at Arlani Medspa
What is Botox and Dysport?
Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved injectable treatments that temporarily reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. They work by relaxing the underlying muscles that cause wrinkles, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance
How do Botox and Dysport treatments work?
These treatments use botulinum toxin as the main active ingredient to temporarily relax targeted facial muscles.
Here’s how it works: the botulinum toxin blocks nerve signals to the injected muscles, causing them to relax. This relaxation reduces the repetitive contractions that cause wrinkles to form in the overlying skin, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance. Most of our clients start noticing visible improvements within 2-5 days after their treatment. However, it takes around 14 days for the full wrinkle-reducing effects to develop as the botulinum toxin gradually takes effect.
You can expect the results to last up to 3-4 months. To maintain your refreshed look, we recommend coming in for follow-up treatments every few months.
How much do Botox and Dysport treatments cost?
The cost of Botox and Dysport treatments varies depending on the number of units needed and the areas being treated. During your Botox/Dysport consultation, we will provide a personalized quote based on your individual needs, wants, and goals.
