botox + dysport (wrinkle relaxers)

Rejuvenate Your Look with Our Expert wrinkle relaxer Treatments


Botox® and Dysport® are excellent options for treating and preventing fine lines, wrinkles, and deep facial furrows. These treatments are particularly effective for addressing wrinkles in the upper face, including crow’s feet (lines around the eyes), horizontal forehead lines, and frown lines between the eyebrows. They work by relaxing the muscles that cause these lines, resulting in a smoother, more youthful appearance.

Smooth Away Forehead Lines

Botox can effectively reduce the appearance of horizontal forehead lines. Experience a more youthful look with smoother, less wrinkled skin.


Eliminate Crow’s Feet

Say goodbye to those pesky eye wrinkles that appear when you smile. Botox treatments can soften crow’s feet, giving you a more rested and vibrant appearance.

Lift Drooping Brows

Achieve a subtle brow lift without surgery using strategically placed Botox injections. This treatment can open up your eyes and create a more alert, youthful expression.


Soften Neck Bands

Botox isn’t just for the face – it can also address visible neck bands. Reduce the appearance of a “turkey neck” and restore a smoother, more youthful neck contour.

Explore our frequently asked questions to learn more about Botox and Dysport, their benefits, and what to expect during treatment.

Botox Cosmetic and Dysport are popular injectable treatments used to temporarily reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. They contains botulinum toxin type A, a purified protein derived from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. When injected into specific facial muscles, these neurotoxins work by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contractions. This relaxes the targeted muscles, smoothing out wrinkles and creating a more youthful appearance.

The treatment is most commonly used for:

  • Forehead lines
  • Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
  • Crow’s feet around the eyes

Botox Cosmetic is FDA-approved and has been used safely for cosmetic purposes for over two decades. The effects typically last 3-4 months, after which the treatment can be repeated to maintain results.

The primary difference between the two wrinkle relaxer brands we carry lies in the formulation: Dysport has a slightly smaller molecule size, which may result in a faster onset of action and a more diffuse spread, while Botox tends to stay more localized. Both treatments are highly effective and offer similar results, but the choice between them depends on your individual needs and preferences.

The timeline for seeing results from Botox and Dysport can vary slightly from person to person, but generally:

  • Initial effects: You may start to notice a difference within a few days after treatment.
  • Full results: The complete effect of the treatment usually becomes visible at 14 days.
  • Duration: Results typically last 3-4 months, though some people may experience longer-lasting effects, especially with repeated treatments.

Factors that can influence the longevity of results include:

  • Individual metabolism
  • The area treated
  • The amount of Botox and Dysport used (dose = duration)
  • Lifestyle factors (e.g., sun exposure, smoking)

To maintain consistent results, most people schedule follow-up treatments every 3-4 months. Over time, with regular treatments, some individuals may find they can go longer between sessions as their muscles become more conditioned to being relaxed.

While Botox Cosmetic is generally considered safe when administered by a qualified professional, like any medical procedure, it does carry some potential risks and side effects:

Common side effects (usually mild and temporary):

  • Bruising or swelling at the injection site
  • Headache
  • Flu-like symptoms
  • Drooping eyelid (ptosis) – occurs in 1-5% of cases and resolves within weeks

Rare but more serious side effects:

  • Difficulty swallowing, speaking, or breathing
  • Vision problems
  • Muscle weakness
  • Allergic reactions

To minimize risks:

  • Choose a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in Botox administration
  • Disclose all medications and supplements you’re taking
  • Follow all pre and post-treatment instructions carefully
  • Avoid rubbing the treated area for 24 hours after injection

It’s crucial to discuss all potential risks and side effects with your healthcare provider before undergoing treatment.

Botox and Dysport are suitable for adults looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions. Ideal candidates are generally healthy and have realistic expectations for what these treatments can achieve. A consultation with one of our experienced injectors will help determine if Botox or Dysport is right for you.

I’ve been getting injected by Nikki for going on 3 years now of course I followed her to Summer Med Spa! She is so understanding of my fear of needles and communicates with me perfectly to achieve the looks I want with the least amount of pain and anxiety possible. She’s also very conscious of my anatomy and does not overfill my lips as to not cause migration. I would recommend Nikki for anybody who is scared to get Botox/filler for the first time or just anybody looking for a new amazing injector💖

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Summer, with Nikki as my provider! She’s incredibly sweet and professional, which put me at ease. What I appreciate most is her honesty — she was upfront about the benefits and limitations of the different treatment options I was considering. I trust her with my face, which is really saying something! If you’re looking for an aesthetics provider who is skilled, genuine, and truly cares about helping you look your best, Nikki is that person.

I’ve been going to Summer for my med spa needs for 6 years and to say she is the BEST is an understatement. I love her approach on less is more and having a more natural approach on beauty. She will always be honest about what looks good or what is too much. On top of her professionalism I always leave feeling so taken care of by her and her team! I walk in the door and they greet me like I’m their best friend that they haven’t seen in forever!!! Truly such an amazing environment to be in. Don’t think about booking…JUST DO IT!

I cannot recommend Summer Aesthetics enough! This team is amazing and has so much to offer for whatever your personal aesthetic goals are; and the whole team is SO sweet. Nikki has been my injector for years now, she keeps me looking like a better (and younger) version of myself and is always so informative about options and treatment plans that progress with my goals. She is also an absolute joy, makes my day every time I see her!

I had facial balancing done by Summer and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the moment I walked in here team made me feel welcomed, comfortable and cared for. Their new space is beautiful, modern and clean. Summer was very knowledgeable and took the time to really understand my goals and needs. She explained the process of what we had agreed on for my treatment which made me feel so at ease. I wanted as natural and subtle results as possible and she 1000% exceeded my expectations! If you’re thinking about facial balancing or any aesthetic treatment I can’t recommend Summer aesthetic enough! Summer and her team are professional and she herself is a true master of her craft.

I’m thankful to have found Maddy (and the sweet team at Summer Aesthetics in LO). Maddy made sound recommendations and delivered results that truly brought my youthful features back to life, which was my main goal. I’ve never left a med spa appointment feeling so relaxed and content with the results. 🌸💓

I have been seeing Summer since before Covid. I believe I started going to her when I was only 16 and I am now almost 23. She is so experienced in her field and has the best personality ever. I have always trusted her and her team with Botox and recently tried out the Skinvive treatment which summer recommended. Her new space is so nice and clean and I felt very welcomed as always! I now live out of state but am sure to pay her a visit anytime I am in town ! It’s important to choose a place you trust when it comes to Botox and injection treatments and this is for sure a place and person I can always trust !!!

I had the best experience with Taryn! She is incredibly professional and knowledgeable, making me feel comfortable from start to finish. The HydraFacial and dermaplane treatment left my skin feeling so smooth and refreshed—I’m glowing! The service was amazing, and I can’t wait to book with her again. Highly recommend!

I had an amazing experience with Emily at Summer Aesthetics for my Moxi treatment! From start to finish, she was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. She took the time to explain the process, set realistic expectations, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the treatment. My skin already looks brighter and more refreshed, and I can’t wait to see the full results. Emily’s expertise and gentle approach made the entire experience so easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend her to anyone considering any skin treatments—she’s the best!

Taryn, is my go to for all aesthetics! I did 3 Moxi treatments and my skin has never felt more youthful. She did a BB HERic treatment for broken capillaries, I have been fighting for years. I look forward to every time I sit in her room learning and talking about skin care and life. She is a fresh breath of air for the industry. I love this med spa and how everyone is so nice as well as educated on all the new technology. This is an evolving industry and it’s sometimes hard to stay on top of it all, so I appreciate I can trust them to be in the know. Nikki is my go to for all other needs when I comes to medical, she is easy and never pushing me out of my comfort zone. She also makes sure to explain things thoroughly and when I ask about things trending she is very honest about what would be good or bad for me. I can’t wait to see their new location!

Taryn and Maddy are amazing! I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Taryn for a peel and several MOXI laser sessions, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. My skin looks great, and Taryn also helped me find a retinol product that my skin could tolerate during the winter months. Maddy is my go-to for injectables. She has an incredibly natural, subtle approach that always leaves me looking refreshed vs. frozen. They both take the time to make sure you’re comfortable throughout the process and I truly appreciate that I never feel pressured into any treatments or products. I highly recommend these talented gals!

Nikki took the time to thoroughly explain everything and answer all of my questions, which made the entire process feel seamless and comfortable. Her attention to detail and care truly made a difference. I’m beyond happy with my results and couldn’t recommend her more highly. If you're looking for someone knowledgeable, professional, and personable, Nikki is the one to see!

Emily and Nikki are SO amazing. I followed Nikki from her previous studio because she's always done such a perfect job on my botox. I recently got SkinVive by her as well, which is a lot of needles to your face. She's so patient and made my feel really safe. Emily might be the sweetest human I've ever met. I've never done any lasers to my face and she was FULL of knowledge. I have been raving to my friends about her. She's also so good at what she does. Honestly, the entire office is full of amazing women who do their jobs so well. They go above and beyond the actual service. It's an entire experience and these girls have become friends. I would highly recommend trusting their services! You are all in for a treat. Summer, the owner is amazing as well!

Maddy immediately made me feel comfortable. She was very thorough in her details of how everything would go and answered any questions I had. The results of my visit were exactly what I was hoping for, for a first time patient. If you feel like you haven’t found the best local Aesthetics team, this is them.
