FDA-approved botulinum toxin treatment to smooth wrinkles and restore a natural look. Omni Cosmetic offers expert Dysport® injections tailored to your goals.
Dysport® is a prescription injectable medication containing botulinum toxin type A, similar to BOTOX®. It is used for cosmetic purposes to temporarily reduce facial wrinkles and lines by blocking nerve signals in the injected muscles.
Originally approved for certain muscle spasm disorders in Europe and Asia in 1991, Dysport became available in the United States in 2009 after FDA approval for treating forehead wrinkles and frown lines. It is only the second drug approved by the FDA for wrinkle treatment. Dysport (formerly known as Reloxin) is made from the same active ingredient as BOTOX, but may provide a more natural look by relaxing wrinkles while allowing for “natural expression” in the treated areas.
The effects of Dysport® can last for several months before gradually wearing off, necessitating additional treatments to maintain results. The injectors at Omni Cosmetic are dedicated to helping you achieve your cosmetic goals through Dysport treatment. Request a cosmetic consultation today to learn more.

What to Expect at Your Dysport Appointment
At your Dysport appointment, you will begin with a consultation to discuss your cosmetic goals and medical history. Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan, cleanse the treatment area, and administer Dysport through precise injections.

Dysport Maintenance Recommendations
For effective maintenance after Dysport treatment, schedule follow-up appointments as recommended for result assessment and potential touch-ups. Regularly apply broad-spectrum sunscreen and maintain a gentle skincare routine. Avoid harsh skincare products immediately after treatment, stay well hydrated, and support overall skin health with balanced nutrition, exercise, and sufficient sleep. Attend scheduled check-ins with your provider for ongoing assessment and care.
