Preventative neuromodulator treatments are increasingly chosen by individuals who want to maintain smooth, youthful-looking skin before deeper lines form. At the Buckingham Center for Facial Plastic Surgery, double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Erin Smith and our skilled team take a precise, anatomy-focused approach to early Dysport care, helping patients age with subtle, natural refinement. Read on to learn how preventative Dysport works, who benefits most, and what to expect as part of this proactive strategy for facial rejuvenation.
Understanding Preventative Dysport
Preventative Dysport addresses early expression lines before they become permanently etched into the skin. Dynamic wrinkles develop from repeated facial movements, particularly across the forehead and around the eyes. As collagen and elasticity naturally decline, these lines can deepen. Dysport is placed into specific muscles to reduce movement in targeted areas, limiting the mechanical folding that contributes to wrinkle formation. This early intervention helps maintain smooth contours and minimizes the development of more visible lines.
How Early Dysport Works
Dysport decreases activity in selected facial muscles, which reduces the repetitive motion responsible for deepening lines. When performed with precision, this approach softens early wrinkles while preserving facial expression. Results generally last three to four months, with variations based on muscle strength, dosage, and metabolism.
Who Benefits Most from Preventative Dysport
Preventative Dysport is best suited for individuals beginning to notice:
- Early forehead lines
- Mild crow’s-feet when smiling
- Frown lines that linger between expressions
Some patients begin treatment in their mid-to-late twenties, while others start when early signs of aging become noticeable. Each treatment plan is fully customized to preserve balanced expression and complement the patient’s natural facial structure.
What to Expect During Treatment
A preventative Dysport session at the Buckingham Center is detailed and anatomy-focused. After cleansing the area, your provider may use cooling strategies to enhance comfort. With a fine needle, precise amounts of Dysport are placed into specific muscles according to your customized plan. Appointments typically take fifteen to thirty minutes, and most patients return to normal activities immediately. Minor redness or swelling may occur but usually resolves the same day.
Maintaining Natural Results Over Time
Consistency is key to effective preventative neuromodulation. With routine treatments, the targeted muscles maintain a softer movement pattern, which slows the formation of deeper lines. Many patients notice that, over time, they may require less product as muscles adapt. As natural aging progresses, our team adjusts each plan to ensure results remain proportional, refined, and in harmony with long-term aesthetic goals.
Complementary Treatments for Graceful Aging
Preventative Dysport is frequently paired with non-surgical treatments that enhance skin quality and support collagen. Patients may benefit from:
- Chemical peels
- RF microneedling
- Personalized skincare plans
- Light-based rejuvenation
