Botox
Botox and Dysport are injectable neuromodulators that temporarily block the signals from the nerves to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. Approved by the FDA, these treatments are primarily used to treat and prevent wrinkles as well as fine lines. They inhibit the release of acetylcholine, which results in the reduction of muscle contraction. This, in turn, smoothes the skin and decreases the appearance of wrinkles. Botox and Dysport commonly treat the areas around the eyes (crow’s feet), between the brows (frown lines), and on the forehead. Ideal for anyone looking to reduce the signs of aging or prevent wrinkles, these treatments offer a non-surgical solution to achieving a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
At B Whole Cosmetic Aesthetics in Plano, TX, our experienced providers will carefully administer these treatments to ensure you get the most natural-looking results. After receiving the treatment, you can typically see results within 3-7 days for Dysport and 7-14 days for Botox. The results usually last between 3-4 months for Botox and 2-3 months for Dysport, but this can vary depending on the individual’s metabolism.

What can I do to prepare for Botox or Dysport treatment?
Before receiving Botox or Dysport treatment, avoid taking medications such as aspirin, anti-inflammatory drugs, or blood thinners, which can increase the chances of bruising. Also, avoid alcohol and smoking, which can slow the healing process. It is always best to have a consultation with our healthcare provider to discuss your medical history and any medications you are currently taking.
What should I do after receiving Botox or Dysport treatment?
After treatment, it’s best to avoid strenuous physical activity, sun exposure, saunas, or other forms of heat therapy for at least 24 hours. Also, try not to lie down or bend over excessively for the first few hours after treatment to prevent the injected material from spreading to other areas. To alleviate any minor discomfort or swelling, you may apply a cool pack to the treated area.
What are the possible side effects of Botox and Dysport?
While Botox and Dysport are generally safe procedures, some people may experience side effects such as pain at the injection site, swelling, redness, or bruising. Some people may experience headaches, mild nausea, or temporary muscle weakness.
How often should I get Botox or Dysport treatments?
The effects of Botox usually last between 3-4 months, and Dysport effects last between 2-3 months. However, it’s important to note that this can vary from person to person. We recommend scheduling a consultation at B Whole Cosmetic Aesthetics to determine the best treatment plan for you.
Can I get Botox or Dysport if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
As a safety precaution, it’s generally recommended to avoid these treatments if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. Although there’s no concrete evidence of harm, not enough studies have been conducted to confirm their safety during these periods.
Will my face still have expression after Botox or Dysport treatment?
Yes, when properly administered, Botox and Dysport still allow for facial expressions. The treatment targets specific muscles that cause wrinkles while leaving other facial muscles unaffected. At B Whole Cosmetic Aesthetics, we strive for natural-looking results, ensuring you can still express yourself fully.
