Dysport (tox)
What to Expect:
1. Treatment Area Preparation
The treatment areas will be gently cleansed to create a clean, sterile environment and remove any makeup or oils.
2. Precision Mapping
Your provider will carefully map and mark the injection points based on your unique facial anatomy and treatment goals to ensure precise, natural-looking results.
3. Comfort Measures (If Needed)
Dysport treatments are typically very well tolerated. To enhance your comfort, a gentle vibrating distraction tool may be used during treatment to help minimize sensation and keep you relaxed.
4. Injection Process
Using a fine needle, small amounts of Dysport are skillfully administered into the targeted areas. You may feel a brief pinch or mild pressure, but any discomfort is minimal and short-lived.
5. Post-Treatment Care
Following your injections, a cold compress may be applied to help minimize redness or swelling, ensuring you leave feeling comfortable and cared for.
