Botox and Dysport

We begin every treatment with personalized consultations and tend to inject conservatively during the first appointments to ensure natural results. It is important to receive Botox and Dysport treatments from experienced and trained practitioners who understand facial anatomy. At U Med Spa, all of our practitioners are highly experienced and trained on each procedure

Botox and Dysport are injected with very small needles. Most patients only report a slight stinging sensation

You may begin to notice results from your Botox and Dysport treatments after 5-7 days but full results usually take up to 2 weeks to show. We treat conservatively during the first treatment to ensure natural results which sometimes means that you need follow-up appointments after 2-4 weeks from the first appointment to achieve optimal result

Botox is $14 per unit and Dysport is $5 per unit. Total cost depends on the number of units and areas treated. Most upper face treatments (forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines) are around $250, and lip flip, gummy smile, chin dimpling, and DAO treatments are a flat $175.

Most forehead treatments use about 20 units of Botox, frown lines 15 to 25, and crow’s feet 10 to 15 per side. Your injector will recommend an exact amount after assessing how your muscles move

Dysport units are measured differently, so a treatment typically uses about 2.5 to 3 times as many units as Botox. The total cost for the same area is comparable

With any injectable treatments, there can be slight bruising, redness, or some swelling on the injection sites. These symptoms should generally dissipate within 48 hours from the treatment. To reduce the risk of bruising, we suggest all customers to avoid blood thinners like Advil, Aspirin, etc. and alcohol for 24 hours prior to the treatment

Usually 3 to 5 months. First-time patients may notice it wearing off a little sooner, and results often last longer with regular treatments

Most patients return every 3 to 4 months to maintain results

No. Botox and Dysport are not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding

All Botox and Dysport treatments are performed by our licensed Physician Assistant and Nurse injectors, under the oversight of our medical director. Read more about our expert team here

Botox has been FDA approved for cosmetic use for over 20 years, and Dysport since 2009. They have been broadly used with very minimal side effects and complications. The most common side effects include bruising and very mild redness/swelling at injection sites. Our licensed practitioners are happy to cover any of your questions during the appointment

Botox and Dysport treatments can be combined with dermal fillers and laser procedures such as Moxi Laser and Co2 Laser to achieve optimal results for anti-aging purposes. Botox and Dysport treatments relax facial muscles to treat fine lines and wrinkles while dermal fillers restore lost volume and soften wrinkles in areas that may have become slightly deflated over time. Laser procedures such as CO2 laser resurfacing, Moxi treatments and BBL Photofacial can improve your overall skin texture and reduce signs of aging. Our practitioners are happy to discuss holistic treatment options tailored to your individual needs during the consultation
