As you age, you may start noticing more lines and wrinkles on your brow and around your eyes. These are commonly known as dynamic lines and wrinkles, resulting from repetitive facial expressions like smiling, frowning, and squinting. As people grow older, these lines can become more prominent, giving a tired appearance.
The good news is that BOTOX Cosmetic offers a solution to temporarily reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, Crow's feet, and forehead creases. BOTOX is derived from a clean type A strain of botulinum toxin, which works by temporarily blocking the muscles responsible for these contractions, allowing the skin to naturally recover.
At Via Bella Aesthetics, we provide BOTOX services as a minimally invasive aesthetic option for both women and men, helping them achieve a smoother and refreshed look.

They are derived from different formulations of botulinum toxin. Botox is based on onabotulinumtoxinA, while Dysport uses abobotulinumtoxinA.
Dysport tends to spread more widely from the injection site, which can make it a preferred choice for treating larger areas like the forehead. On the other hand, Botox is often favored for precise work in smaller areas. The onset of results may also vary, with Dysport typically showing effects a bit faster, usually within 2-5 days, whereas Botox may take 3-7 days. Ultimately, the choice between Botox and Dysport depends on individual preferences and the area to be treated.
