Aging is an inevitable part of life, but some wrinkles and frown lines don’t result from age.

What Can Botox® and Dysport® Accomplish?
Botox® and Dysport® are neuromodulators formulated from the purified form of botulinum toxin type A. Though they originate from a toxin, Botox® and Dysport® are safe for cosmetic procedures with few side effects. They work by temporarily blocking signals to the muscles beneath the skin. This action stops the repetitive motion that causes skin to wrinkle, reducing the appearance of fine lines. Botox® and Dysport® are effective for patients with mild to moderate wrinkles.
Without altering movements in other areas of the face, Botox® and Dysport® can give a smoother, more natural appearance to the:
- Eye area
- Forehead
- Frown lines
Botox® is also FDA-approved to treat hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) in areas such as:
- Hands
- Armpits
- Feet
Dr. Zinsser and his expert team understand subtle choices can make drastic improvements to your appearance. Due to their incomparable experience, they are highly precise with every injection, exclusively targeting the muscles that cause skin to wrinkle.
Whatever your aesthetic goals, our injection specialists will take the time to understand them and recommend the procedures that will provide you with natural-looking results.
Is Botox® or Dysport® Right for Me?
The effects of aging can negatively influence your self-esteem or decrease your overall sense of wellness. However, with Botox® and Dysport®, we can slow the signs of aging and help you regain confidence in your appearance.
The late 20’s or early 30’s, before your lines set in for good, is the best time to start Botox® or Dysport® injections. However, once wrinkles remain on your face even when you are not making an expression, they will not disappear with one Botox® or Dysport® treatment.
Am I a Good Candidate?
During your initial consultation, we will discuss your goals and recommend the number of Botox® and Dysport® units and placement needed. Cosmetic treatment costs can vary from about $200-600, depending on the area covered and the number of units used. Rather than a flat fee per area, we charge by the units used, so you only pay for what you use. Hyperhidrosis treatments require many units, so pricing begins at $800.
Typically, candidates for Botox® and Dysport® should:
- Be at least 18 years old
- Be non-smokers
- Live a healthy lifestyle
- Not be pregnant or nursing
- Have no history of neuromuscular diseases
- Have realistic expectations and positive outlook
- Understand the risks of the procedure
- Be ready to closely follow pre- and post-procedure instructions
During your consultation, our aesthetic injector will discuss your concerns, review your medical history, and consider all treatment options to determine your candidacy. If you are a good candidate for Botox® and Dysport®, we will develop a customized procedural plan to achieve your aesthetic goals.
