OR med spa explains difference between Dysport treatment and fillers

04 Dec

Today, cosmetic rejuvenation often comes in the form of injectables. Yet there remains some confusion about these popular treatments. The experts at EsthetixMD Spa & Laser Center in Bend, OR share this helpful information about neuromodulators such as Dysport, and dermal fillers.

Two types of wrinkles

“Dynamic” is defined as a state of constant change. Dynamic wrinkles are those created when repeated facial expressions pull skin into lines and creases. Examples are:

Vertical lines between the brows and horizontal forehead lines from scowling.
Crow’s feet from squinting.
Radiating lip lines from puckering.

“Static” refers to forces at rest. Thus, static wrinkles occur when volume loss allows skin to sag. Jowling, or drooping skin on the lower third of the face, is a classic example.

Neuromodulators treat dynamic wrinkles

Dysport, Xeomin, and Botox are neuromodulators. They relax underlying facial muscles to soften dynamic wrinkles. Each brand is a slightly different formulation, but they work in a similar fashion, blocking nerve impulses. Of three, Dysport has slightly better diffusion, making it ideal for broader areas of distribution such as crow’s feet, and it tends to work a bit quicker.

Fillers restore lost volume

Dermal fillers are gel compounds injected beneath the skin to replace volume lost through the natural process of aging. This improves facial contours and creates lift, smoothing static wrinkles. We use a broad range of fillers, some thick and others silky, to fill hollows and wrinkles and augment lips.

Aesthetic injectables are generally safe for all skin types, and have a high patient satisfaction rate. Results last several months to several years. Neuromodulators or fillers can be used alone, or as part of a comprehensive non-surgical rejuvenation plan, customized just for you.

I can’t say enough good things about EsthetixMD. I came in for a Madonna Eye Lift and Coolpeel combo. I felt so safe and protected entering the building. My provider, Allison was so sweet, professional and amazing. Allison prepped me on what to expect during and after. I was provided post care and given skin care options. I am absolutely delighted with the results. I’ve already booked another! Thank you EsthetixMD!

Allison is not only caring but she dials you in on the best possible solution for your skin. The front office staff is the same way. I can not recommend them enough. They go the extra mile.

I see Dr. Covey for dermal filler and Botox. She is brilliant, she educates me all the way through the treatment, she does her best to minimize any pain, and I always look and feel terrific afterwards. The clinic is professional, and staff is very pleasant. Check in and out is easy. I would recommend the clinic to anyone who wants beautiful skin, expert treatment and loving care. Also, the range of treatments available for face and body is impressive.

Ultra Femme 360 does what it claims. Don’t be afraid to try it. Yes it is an investment but it is worth it. Allison is very professional and makes the awkwardness just go away. If you are wondering what to expect while in the room it’s similar to a well women visit only the benefits are outstanding. Instead of feeling like I need to treat myself to a nice lunch and glass of wine after going through the whole pap experience I am planning a date night.

“Love working with Nicholas! He introduced the PFD patch for laser tattoo removal which allows for multiple laser passes instead of only one pass. It’s incredible how much the new patch will speed up removing my tattoos!”
