What Is BOTOX®?

$12|unit

BOTOX® is an injectable dynamic wrinkle treatment that temporarily relaxes the muscles. When used for cosmetic purposes, BOTOX® targets the muscles in the face responsible for fine lines and wrinkles. Smiling, laughing, frowning and other expressions all contribute to muscles contracting, which creates wrinkles over time and contributes to the facial features looking older and the skin seeming less elastic.

What Is Dysport®?

$4|unit

Dysport® is an injectable neurotoxin similar to BOTOX® used to treat wrinkles and facial folds in the skin. Both drugs are derived from a form of botulinum toxin type A and are injected directly into the muscles to temporarily relax and soften lines in the face. Common injection sites include forehead lines that are produced when you frown or lines around the eyes and nose. BOTOX® and Dysport® also treat protruding neck bands as well as a gummy smile. However, it is vital that both BOTOX® and Dysport® be administered by a healthcare professional who can properly inject and manipulate the correct amount of the drug to produce the most aesthetically pleasing results.
