BOTOX® can provide beautiful, long-lasting results without the pain or downtime of traditional surgeries. As you age, your skin is constantly subjected to environmental factors like wind and sun, which slowly damage your skin’s complexion. Additionally, the repeated muscle contractions associated with frowning or squinting can cause moderate to severe fine lines and wrinkling. Prolonged or frequent sun exposure can also cause and worsen cases of wrinkling. At Sutton Place Dermatology, we are committed to restoring your complexion with the most advanced, minimally invasive treatments like BOTOX®, DYSPORT®, and XEOMIN®.
BOTOX® is a cosmetic injectable that can help treat and reduce moderate to severe fine lines, wrinkling, and crow’s feet. BOTOX® targets the root cause of fine lines and wrinkling by reducing the repetitive muscle contractions occurring beneath your skin. These muscles, after receiving a BOTOX® injection, will experience a temporary reduction in muscle contraction, which provides a smooth, even complexion. Some patients experience noticeable results one to two days following their procedure, with results lasting up to six months.
The process of a BOTOX® treatment usually only takes ten to fifteen minutes. Prior to your BOTOX® injection, our dermatologists will discuss your case and treatment goals. With this knowledge, we will be able to tailor your BOTOX® treatment to you specifically and provide the best results possible. With a BOTOX® injection, most patients experience little to no down time and can quickly return to their daily routine.
DYSPORT® is a prescription injectable that can help smooth out and even your skin tone, reduce age lines, crow’s feet, and other signs of aging. DYSPORT® is different because its natural-looking results do not leave you with a frozen look like some other treatments may. DYSPORT® targets only problematic cells to restore smooth, glowing features, and it does this by reducing specific muscle activity that results in fine lines and wrinkling.
A DYSPORT® treatment varies in length depending upon what you are having treated. A typical DYSPORT® treatment lasts only fifteen to twenty minutes. The number of DYSPORT® injections needed to provide results also vary from patient to patient, depending on what you are having treated. For instance, if you were having a DYSPORT® treatment to help reduce the wrinkling of your brow, you will most likely receive five injections at key muscle points along your eyebrows. This will target muscles that contract and result in wrinkling. The majority of patients have seen results in two to three days after their DYSPORT® procedure, but the most noticeable results may take up to a week to occur. With DYSPORT®, you can enjoy smooth skin and a youthful appearance for up to four months.
XEOMIN® is a prescription medication that is injected into the muscles to temporarily improve the appearance of fine lines due to aging. XEOMIN® contains botulinum toxin type A, which prevents tissues and fibers in your skin from contracting. As XEOMIN® reduces these contractions, fine lines and wrinkles can be temporarily reduced in visibility and severity.
A XEOMIN® treatment takes an average of twenty minutes to complete. During your XEOMIN® treatment, a topical anesthetic may be used to maximize comfort. Some patients begin to experience results in as little as three days, but the most noticeable improvements usually occur a month after your XEOMIN® injection.
