Why Choose Botox® and Dysport?
Botox® and Dysport relax the muscles that cause wrinkles, allowing your skin to appear smoother and more youthful.
Botox® and Dysport injectables are widely trusted for effective wrinkle treatment using a minimally invasive approach to facial rejuvenation. Experience immediate results in 15 to 30 minutes!
How Does Botox® and Dysport Work?
Botox® (botulinumtoxinA) works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing them from contracting. No muscle contraction means smoother skin, reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
Dysport® injections (abobotulinumtoxinA) work the same as Botox, only with smaller molecules. These molecules spread easily to larger areas, making it the better choice for forehead lines and neck bands caused by specific muscle groups. Dysport® can still treat facial wrinkles like those around the eyes or mouth.
Botox® and Dysport injections are delivered in the doctor’s office, and the recovery is immediate.

Both Botox® and Dysport can be used to target:
- Forehead lines

Are You A Good Candidate for Botox® and Dysport?
Botox® and Dysport candidates are those who desire more youthful skin, free of fine lines and wrinkles. Candidates must also be in good health and have realistic expectations. The best results can be achieved by following aftercare instructions.
What to Expect During the Treatment
Botox® and Dysport injections are quick and relatively painless. The procedure takes about 10–20 minutes. A fine needle is used to administer the product into the targeted muscles, and most patients experience little to no discomfort.
Is There Downtime for Botox® and Dysport?
There is little to no downtime after receiving Botox® or Dysport. You can return to your regular activities immediately, although you should avoid rubbing the treated area for four hours and refrain from strenuous exercise for the remainder of the day.
Botox® and Dysport Results
The results last three to four months. Dysort can last longer for forehead lines, glabellar lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and crow’s feet.
Dr. Olding will usually have his patients return for a follow-up visit a week or so after their first injection for a quick touch-up.
Immediately After Treatment
The treated areas may appear slightly red or swollen, but this fades within one to four hours. Some patients notice a subtle improvement right away as the muscles begin to relax.
Three to Five Days Post-Treatment
The first visible changes appear, with fine lines beginning to soften. The skin takes on a smoother, more refreshed look as muscle activity decreases.
Two Weeks Post-Treatment
Full results become noticeable, with wrinkles significantly reduced. The skin appears firmer and more even in texture, enhancing overall facial balance.
Three to Four Months After Treatment
The effects gradually fade as muscle activity returns. With regular maintenance treatments, the skin remains smoother, and the formation of deeper wrinkles can be minimized over time.

Botox® and Dysport both smooth over fine lines and wrinkles. These injectable treatments are minimally invasive, with no surgery required. The treatment is quick, with no significant downtime.
Results appear in three to five days and can last three to four months. Consistent use can prevent the formation of new wrinkles.
