How Do Dynamic Wrinkles Develop?
Wrinkles form over time due to a mix of factors—like aging, stress, and environmental exposure—many of which are out of your control. Repeated facial expressions also play a major role. Every time you smile, frown, or raise your brows, the muscles pull the skin into motion. Over the years, this constant movement creates visible lines, such as forehead creases, frown lines, and crow’s feet. Wrinkles caused by these muscle contractions are called dynamic wrinkles, and neuromodulators like Dysport® are designed to treat them.
Dr. Turner is passionate about helping patients understand how these changes occur and what treatments can help. She takes the time to educate each person, ensuring they feel informed and empowered in their aesthetic journey.
Dysport® FAQs
Everything You’ve Wanted to Know About Dysport®—Answered
Dysport® is derived from botulinum toxin type A, similar to BOTOX®, but with a slightly different formulation. Its unique properties allow it to diffuse more easily across broader areas, making it particularly effective for treating larger regions such as the forehead or glabellar lines (the “11s” between the brows).
One of the advantages of Dysport® is that it may kick in faster than other neuromodulators because it is a smaller molecule and may settle into the muscle faster. Effects may start to show up within twenty-four hours. This can make it ideal for last-minute treatments.
Dysport® results last around three to four months on average. Maintaining your results involves staying consistent with touch-up treatments while also supporting your skin with healthy lifestyle choices and a quality skincare routine to help extend and enhance your results.
What Other Aesthetic Options Are Available Besides Dysport®?
There are a variety of treatments available that pair well with Dysport®, helping to enhance and extend your overall results and create a balanced look. Hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers such as Restylane® work differently from neuromodulators. Fillers can restore volume to sunken cheeks, enhance other facial contours, subtly lift the lower face where jowls often appear, and redefine features such as the lips. These injectables also help smooth out static lines—those visible even when your face is relaxed. Skin rejuvenation treatments such as chemical peels and microneedling rejuvenate the skin and address many other skin tone and texture concerns.
At her dermatology clinic in Dallas, Dr. Ellen Turner takes a personalized approach, guiding each patient toward the combination of treatments best suited to their features and cosmetic goals.
