What is Dysport®?
Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA) is a neurotoxin that works by temporarily preventing movement to smooth out wrinkles caused by muscle contractions without altering the look of the rest of the areas on the face. Just one injection into each of the 5 points between and above the eyebrows prevents the muscles' movement that causes frown lines. Dysport® can also be used as a lip flip treatment.
Patients notice within as little as 24 hours that the injections deliver noticeable results, typically appearing within 2-3 days. Minimal downtime means that you can go back to your day faster, and see results almost instantly.

The first FDA-approved poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA-SCA) facial injectable, Sculptra® targets fine lines, sagging, wrinkles, and other signs of aging due to collagen loss.

The collagen stimulator improves skin's glow, tightness, and contour by 66.5%.
