Botox and Dysport Injections
Age-Defying Results
Neuromodulator injections like Botox and Dysport can subtly enhance your natural beauty and provide age-defying results. These treatments are clinically proven, non-invasive ways to reduce and erase the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. In addition to the injections’ age defying properties, neuromodulators may be used to treat excessive sweating and hyperactive sweat glands, known as hyperhidrosis, in areas such as underarms, hands, and feet. Neuromodulators are also used to treat Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) and jaw pain from chewing, grinding, and clicking.
Multiple Benefits
Botox and Dysport neuromodulator injections have many benefits and are typically applied to frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, bunny or nasalis lines, dimpled chins, between eyebrows, and into the masseter muscle of the jaw. Whether you are looking to slim your jawline, soften your facial expressions, or perhaps just erase years of aging, BARE Medical Aesthetics’ Botox or Dysport injections could be a great option for you.
BARE Medical Aesthetics offers Botox and Dysport to clients in London and the surrounding Southwestern Ontario area, such as Kitchener Waterloo, Cambridge, Sarnia, Woodstock and beyond.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Botox and Dysport injections? Which is right for me?
Botox and Dysport are both Health Canada approved, brand-name facial injections used to treat wrinkles and other facial imperfections by relaxing muscles in the targeted area. Both injections contain the active ingredient botulinum toxin A, which relaxes muscles by blocking nerve signals. The result is a more youthful, smooth complexion for 3-6 months.
By scheduling a consultation, our expert team can help you decide which product is best for your cosmetic needs.
What are the most common Botox treatments?
It’s a common saying that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile, which may be the case because frown lines are one of the most common Botox treatments people ask for. Crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles are the next most common. You can enhance your natural beauty by receiving Botox for frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines, to give yourself a more welcoming and youthful appearance.
Are Botox and Dysport injections safe? What are the risks?
As non-invasive injections that may be performed in the office, Neuromodulator injections are relatively safe for qualifying individuals. Minor side effects may arise for some individuals receiving injections, such as bruising at the injection site, slight pain, numbness, heavy eyelids, or headache. We recommend scheduling a consultation with one of our professionals to better understand how BARE Medical Aesthetics mitigates risks for you and to help determine if you qualify for the injections.
I’ve heard that zinc helps your Botox last longer. Is this true?
Due to the chemical makeup of Botox injections, some studies have found that taking zinc supplements or consuming zinc-rich foods have helped Botox effects last longer. Before making major changes to your diet, though, you should consult a medical professional.
How soon will I be able to see the results of Botox and Dysport?
Typically, the full effects of Botox and Dysport injections are visible 10-14 days after injections. However, clients may begin to see results within a few days.
How long do Botox and Dysport injections last?
The results of Botox and Dysport neuromodulators vary from individual to individual. However, both injections usually last around 3 to 5 months on average.
How long do I need to wait in between injections?
Everyone is different, but experts usually recommend waiting at least 2-3 months in between treatments.
Can I wear makeup to my Botox appointment?
Yes, if you would feel more comfortable wearing makeup to your Botox appointment, feel free to do so. However, the nurse providing your treatment will remove your makeup from the injection site and sanitize the area.
Can Botox or Dysport be used as a lip filler?
No, it cannot be used as a filler as it does not provide added volume. However, it can be used to relax the muscles around the lips to create an upward turn, otherwise known as a “lip flip”. Other lip augmentation methods may be recommended over Botox or Dysport. Book a consultation with one of our experts to find out if this method is best for you.
Is drinking alcohol okay after my treatment?
It is not recommended to consume alcohol 24-hours before or after your appointment.
What can I expect during my Botox/Dysport appointment?
Botox/Dysport appointments usually last around 30 minutes. We begin by thoroughly reviewing your health history and personalized treatment goals. Then, we will ask you to make facial expressions to determine the exact treatment area and take pre-treatment photos. Finally, we will cleanse and mark the area, and use a very small needle to inject the medication. Before you leave, we will review discharge instructions.
