DYSPORT® Wrinkle Treatment
now being offered at Las Colinas Dermatology

Facial wrinkles always seem to appear before we are ready for them. Fortunately, Dr. Alison Black at Las Colinas Dermatology offers a variety of modern, non-surgical wrinkle treatments that can help you restore or maintain a youthful-looking face. DYSPORT™ is the first FDA-approved alternative to the highly popular injectable wrinkle treatment BOTOX® Cosmetic. Both products treat "dynamic wrinkles," which is another name for wrinkles caused by the contractions of facial muscles, such as forehead furrows, frown lines, and crow's feet. Dr. Black is pleased to now be offering
DYSPORT ™ to her patients.

Unlike dermal fillers that correct wrinkles by restoring lost volume, DYSPORT™ temporarily relaxes the facial muscles that actually cause the wrinkles. It also can temporarily keep the wrinkles from progressing and prevent future wrinkles in the treated areas. Combining DYSPORT™ with dermal filler like Restylane or Radiesse and chemical peels can give you an even more impressive overall facial rejuvenation.

Dr. Black makes patient care a priority; therefore, she conducts all DYSPORT™ consultations and treatments herself. She has an in-depth understanding of the relationship between facial muscles and expressions, so you can feel confident that your DYSPORT™ treatments will be performed with extreme precision and care and that your enhancements will be natural looking. If you're interested in learning more about DYSPORT™, schedule your consultation with Dr. Black.

What makes DYSPORT™ different from BOTOX® Cosmetic?

These two products are made from botulinum toxin type A and work on the same principle of correcting wrinkles by suspending facial muscle movement. However, they offer some differences. DYSPORT™ has been found to:

  • Take effect earlier, within 1 to 2 days after treatment, as opposed to 3 to 5 days for BOTOX® Cosmetic.
  • Result in improvements that spread farther from the injection site. While this property limits precision, it can be beneficial when treating larger areas.
  • Create results that last longer for some patients.

Dr. Black has extensive experience performing injectable wrinkle treatments. She will use extreme care and precision when injecting DYSPORT™ to ensure that the targeted wrinkles will smooth out while preserving your ability to make natural expressions.
