Dysport Treatments at Dallas Associated Dermatologists

by

At Dallas Associated Dermatologists, we specialize in personalized cosmetic treatments designed to help you achieve a natural, refreshed appearance. Dysport is one of our most popular solutions for smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, helping you look and feel your best.

What Is Dysport?

Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that relaxes specific facial muscles to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It’s made from botulinum toxin type A, similar to Botox, but formulated to spread more evenly across larger areas, making it particularly effective for addressing moderate to severe frown lines (glabellar lines) between the eyebrows.

What Is Dysport Used For?

Dysport targets dynamic wrinkles—those caused by repetitive facial movements like smiling, frowning, or squinting. Common areas treated with Dysport include:

  • Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
  • Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
  • Forehead lines
  • Bunny lines (across the nose)

Dysport can also be used for subtle enhancements that create a smoother, more youthful look without appearing “frozen.”

What to Expect Before a Dysport Treatment

Before your Dysport appointment, you’ll have a consultation with one of our experienced providers. During this visit, we will:

  • Discuss your aesthetic goals and concerns
  • Review your medical history and any medications or supplements you’re taking
  • Examine your facial anatomy to determine the best treatment areas

To ensure the best results, avoid alcohol, aspirin, and blood-thinning medications for at least 24–48 hours before your appointment to minimize bruising.

What to Expect During a Dysport Treatment

A Dysport treatment is quick and minimally invasive:

The provider will cleanse the treatment area. Using a fine needle, Dysport will be injected into the targeted muscles. The process typically takes 10–20 minutes, with minimal discomfort. You can return to your daily activities immediately after your session.

    What to Expect After Dysport

    Following your Dysport treatment, you can expect:

    • Minimal Downtime: While some patients may experience slight redness, swelling, or bruising, these effects typically resolve quickly.
    • Noticeable Results in 2–3 Days: Dysport begins to work within a few days, with optimal results appearing in about two weeks.
    • Long-Lasting Effects: Results generally last 3–4 months, depending on your individual response and treatment area.

    For best results, avoid lying down, exercising, or rubbing the treated area for 4–6 hours post-treatment.

    PRP Therapy

    by

    Platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP) is the gold standard in skin and hair rejuvenation and healing for a variety of conditions.

    PRP is a type of therapy that leverages the body’s own regenerative resources in order to heal a range of physical problems.

    Your blood consists of several components. One component of your blood is called plasma, which is the liquid part of uncoagulated blood. The role of plasma is to conduct platelets and red and white blood cells throughout the body. Plasma is highly valued as a source of healing.

    Platelets are another key component of blood. Platelets are a type of blood cell responsible for blood clotting as well as helping the body to heal.

    PRP therapy takes advantage of both of these powerful blood components — platelets and plasma — and uses them to aid with healing parts of the body that need it.

    The dermatologists at Dallas Associated Dermatologists utilize PRP therapy to aid in skin healing and hair rejuvenation.

    What is PRP Therapy Used For?

    In dermatology, PRP therapy can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions and to rejuvenate areas of the skin that are problematic.

    Some of the conditions that PRP therapy can be used for are:

    • Alopecia
    • Skin ulcers
    • Acne
    • Burns
    • Hyperpigmentation
    • Melasma
    • Hair loss

    PRP therapy is a non-surgical treatment that is performed in our office. Your dermatologist uses a fine needle to inject platelets and plasma (separated from your own blood) into your skin or scalp. The procedure causes mild discomfort. You may feel a slight pinch as the needle pierces your skin.

    Results from PRP therapy may take a while to be noticeable, although improvement will begin to take place almost immediately and continue for about three months. Multiple treatment sessions are usually needed to achieve the desired effects. Effects can be expected to last up to a year or more.

    Types of PRP Therapy

    Different types of PRP therapy are determined based on the number of growth factors detected in the blood sample (after it is processed).

    Four types of PRP therapy exist:

    • Pure PRP
    • Leukocyte-rich PRP
    • Pure platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)
    • Leukocyte-rich PRF

    Am I a Candidate for PRP Therapy?

    You may be a candidate for PRP if you suffer from any of the conditions known to respond favorably to PRP therapy. You and your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists can discuss your suitability for this type of treatment.

    The qualities of a good candidate are:

    • Overall good health with no underlying conditions
    • Other treatment options have not worked
    • Comfortable with giving blood samples for the therapy
    • Skin condition is in the early-to-mid-stages

    There are many reasons to consider PRP therapy. Not only is PRP therapy considered to be very effective, but the results can also be transformative.

    Laser Therapy

    by

    Laser therapy works by increasing cellular energy and encouraging healthy regeneration.

    Lasers have been used in dermatology for at least 40 years. Recent advances have not only increased the efficacy of laser therapy but broadened its scope of usefulness. Laser therapy is used for everything from hair removal to the destruction of cancerous skin growths.

    The benefits of laser therapy include the fact that it is non-invasive and virtually painless. Although sometimes minimal side effects can occur, like temporary pain or discomfort or blistering, most would agree that laser therapy is certainly worth considering.

    Your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists can let you know if laser therapy might be right for your condition.

    What is Laser Therapy Used For?

    We offer a wide variety of laser types and treatments and many conditions respond very well to laser therapy, such as:

    • Overgrowth of hair
    • Acne scars
    • Hyperpigmentation (age spots)
    • Skin lesions, warts or scars
    • Wrinkles or fine lines
    • Sagging skin/jowls
    • Spider veins, broken capillaries or vascular lesions
    • Rosacea
    • Birthmarks

    There are even more skin conditions that may warrant consideration of laser therapy. Talk to your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists to see if laser therapy may be right for you.

    Am I a Candidate For Laser Therapy?

    Laser therapy is effective for many conditions, including those brought about by lifestyles and habits.

    If you regularly sunbathe or have a history of drinking or smoking, you may need treatment for sun damage, wrinkles, and broken capillaries. Laser therapy is not preventative, so if you indulge in the same kind of behaviors, the initial problem will return.

    The best candidates for laser therapy are those who are willing to do more to protect their skin. That way, the results will be lasting.

    There are others who might not respond well to laser therapy. This includes those who:

    • Are currently taking certain acne medications
    • Are vulnerable to excess scarring
    • Are pregnant
    • Are taking blood-thinning medication or aspirin daily
    • Have certain skin resurfacing disorders
    • Are prone to sunburns or who currently have a tan or sunburn
    • Have active acne breakouts
    • Are dark-skinned

    Your dermatologist will advise you as to whether or not you are a good candidate for laser therapy. Often, the reason someone isn’t a good candidate has to do with the potential for visible scarring after treatment. But all in all, a healthy individual with relatively good skin and no underlying conditions can expect to be a good candidate for this treatment.

    Laser therapy is FDA-approved and has been shown to be highly effective over the decades. Why not see for yourself what laser therapy can do for your skin?

    Cosmetic Injections

    by

    Cosmetic injections, sometimes called cosmetic fillers, are dermatological treatments for aging skin.

    Cosmetic injections are used by dermatologists to help patients achieve a more youthful appearance. As skin ages, it begins to show signs of aging like wrinkles and sagging.

    Cosmetic injections plump up the skin so wrinkles disappear and sagging diminishes or becomes less noticeable. These injections do not lead to permanent results but repeat treatments are safe. This way, anyone can achieve the more youthful appearance that they desire.

    Dallas Associated Dermatologists offers several cosmetic injection treatments, including Botox®, Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Dysport®.

    What are Cosmetic Injections Used For?

    The primary purpose of cosmetic injections is to enhance the appearance of older skin. For this reason, cosmetic injections are most often done on the face; however, they can also be done on other areas of the body, including the hands. In fact, Botox is a cosmetic injection that is also used to combat excessively sweaty palms.

    Most often, though, cosmetic injections are used to:

    • Soften facial creases
    • Erase fine lines and wrinkles
    • Plump up thinning skin
    • Improve the appearance of facial scars
    • Plump lips
    • Enhance facial contours

    Types of Cosmetic Injections

    Cosmetic injections are frequently referred to by their brand name. For instance, many of the types of cosmetic injections listed here are actually brand names that contain very similar ingredients. They include:

    Cosmetic injections are FDA-approved and considered safe for most individuals; however, certain side effects may occur with some cosmetic injection formulations.

    If you have side effects with one type of cosmetic injection, it doesn’t mean you and your dermatologist can’t use another type of cosmetic injection. Talk to your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists to determine if one type of filler may be more suitable for your needs than another.

    Am I a Candidate for Cosmetic Injections?

    If you suffer from unwanted wrinkles, thin skin, or sagging skin, cosmetic injections could be a great treatment option for you. Anyone who wishes to appear more youthful is a good candidate!

    Do you feel healthy and vital on the inside, but your outward appearance makes you look older than your actual years? Or perhaps you have a professional job that puts you in the public eye and you want to appear more youthful and full of vitality? Cosmetic injections can help.

    We offer technology to help you easily achieve a more youthful appearance through cosmetic injections. It may take more than one visit in order for you to achieve your desired results.

    Your dermatologist at Dallas Associated Dermatologists can help guide you through the process.
