Dysport in Eugene
What is Dysport?
The SpaSide at Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in Eugene, OR, provides Dysport, an effective anti-aging treatment used by millions worldwide, to reduce wrinkles, enhance skin firmness, and improve texture. Dysport is a neurotoxin that inhibits the contraction of facial muscles responsible for wrinkles by blocking nerve signals to the muscles. Dysport can restore and enhance your appearance and natural beauty!
How Does Dysport Work?
Dysport injections are widely appreciated for their ability to quickly enhance the smoothness and beauty of your skin. This anti-aging treatment relaxes the muscles responsible for wrinkles, effectively reducing their appearance and preventing further ones. By limiting the release of neurotransmitters in facial muscles, Dysport inhibits muscle contractions, minimizing the movement that causes fine lines and wrinkles to form. As a result, it creates a rejuvenated and relaxed appearance that reflects your natural beauty.
Benefits of a Dysport Treatment
Dysport offers natural-looking outcomes by selectively targeting facial muscles associated with wrinkles, all while preserving expressive functions of the remaining face. The procedure is characterized by its efficiency and minimal discomfort during injection, making it highly convenient for individuals with busy schedules. Furthermore, Dysport requires minimal downtime, allowing patients to resume daily activities. Although results may vary, Dysport generally provides lasting effects for three to six months.
Dysport vs. Other Treatments
Dysport and Botox are neuromodulators that offer similar results, with slight differences in their formulation and diffusion. Dysport is known for its ability to spread easily, which makes it an excellent choice for treating larger areas such as the forehead. Additionally, Dysport has a slightly accelerated onset of action compared to other neurotoxins.
Before, During, and After
What To Expect Before a Dysport Treatment
During a comprehensive consultation, our highly skilled practitioners will evaluate your specific concerns and objectives. They will provide detailed explanations of the procedure, address any inquiries or concerns you may have, and design a customized treatment plan.
What To Expect During a Dysport Treatment
The treatment area will be prepared through cleansing, and to minimize any potential discomfort, a topical anesthetic or ice pack may be administered. Utilizing a fine needle, the medical practitioner will then skillfully inject Dysport into the specific muscles. This minimally invasive and non-surgical procedure typically takes 15-20 minutes to finalize, ensuring natural facial expressions while achieving optimal outcomes.
What To Expect After a Dysport Treatment
After the procedure, detailed instructions on how to care for the treated area will be provided. Mild side effects like bruising and temporary “mosquito bites,” which will typically diminish within 5-10 minutes, are commonly experienced. For optimal recovery, limit sun exposure and avoid strenuous activities for a short period. Visible results may manifest within 24 hours and last 3-6 months.

To ensure a smooth Dysport procedure in Eugene and minimize bruising or swelling, it is recommended to avoid consuming alcohol and anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, Aleve, aspirin, and Vitamin E for at least one week before the treatment.

Is there a recommended age range for Dysport injections?
Typically recommended for individuals aged 18 and above, Dysport treatments are assessed by our highly knowledgeable practitioners based on your circumstances to determine suitability.
Can Dysport be used for preventative measures against wrinkles?

How soon after Dysport injections can individuals resume normal activities?
There is typically little to no downtime after Dysport injections, so you can promptly resume your regular activities.
Are there any specific aftercare instructions for individuals who have received Dysport?

Can individuals with sensitive skin or allergies undergo Dysport injections?
Those who have experienced an allergic reaction to any of the ingredients in Dysport or have an infection or skin condition at the injection site should refrain from using Dysport.
