Relax Wrinkles and Restore a Vibrant, More Youthful Appearance in the Little Rock Area
Repeated facial movements and muscle contractions eventually cause dynamic wrinkles—like frown lines—to form. There are several options for minimizing these expression wrinkles, including Dysport® at Little Rock’s Dermatology Group of Arkansas.
Dysport® is a fast acting and long-lasting injectable that provides natural-looking results for patients who want to soften frown lines.

What Does Dysport® Treat?
Dysport® is FDA-approved for the temporary treatment of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (also known as glabellar lines or “elevens”). These are expression wrinkles that are associated with habitual facial expressions or movements.
How Does Dysport® Work?
Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA) is made with botulinum toxin, which is a protein derived from a common bacterium. It’s a neuromodulator, meaning it disrupts certain signals between the nerves and muscles. By temporarily blocking signals that trigger muscle contractions, it allows the muscles to relax. Wrinkles are reduced as a result.
What sets Dysport® apart from other injectables is its “spreadability” that allows it to diffuse through tissues more easily, making it ideal for treating larger areas such as the flat muscles of the forehead. It does not cause a heavy feeling, and fewer injections will be needed to achieve the full results. It also has a faster onset compared to other options.
What Can You Expect from a Dysport® Treatment?
Our team at Dermatology Group of Arkansas strives to ensure that your Dysport® procedure will be as comfortable and smooth as possible. Treatments are quick and minimally invasive. Small amounts of the product are injected into the specific muscles that cause wrinkles in order to smooth the skin while still preserving your natural facial expressions. A session usually will take around 15 minutes to be completed. The number of injections each patient needs will vary depending on their features and how pronounced their wrinkles are.

How Long Do Dysport® Results Last?
The results will typically show up in two to three days. This is a temporary treatment, which means the effects will eventually wear off. Dysport® has a lifespan of three to four months on average.
Which Other Cosmetic Treatments Are Available for Reducing Wrinkles?
BOTOX® is a go-to choice for reducing wrinkles that are linked to repetitive facial expressions. Although it is very similar to Dysport®, there are some subtle differences. Some patients prefer one injectable over the other.
In addition to neuromodulators like Dysport®, Little Rock’s Dermatology Group of Arkansas provides a full range of facial fillers, including hyaluronic acid fillers like the Juvederm® and Restylane® collections and collagen-stimulating fillers such as Sculptra®. Unlike neuromodulators, facial fillers are intended to be used for static wrinkles, which are caused by volume loss and other stressors rather than repetitive facial movements.
There are also other cosmetic treatments to improve wrinkles and more skin imperfections. These include lasers and lights, skin tightening treatments, chemical peels, dermaplaning, and microneedling.
