Is Dysport or Botox a better option for patients in and near New Orleans, LA?

Dysport in New Orleans Doctor Dr Mary Lupo in New Orleans
The dermatologists at Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology in New Orleans, LA, are known for their extensive knowledge and expertise in anti-aging treatments. Many patients come to us with frown lines, crow’s feet, and other facial lines or wrinkles. They often ask whether Botox or Dysport is the best solution.

Differences

We are committed to excellence in every aspect of our practice. If one of these products were clearly superior, we would use it exclusively. We offer both Botox and Dysport because they are both excellent products.

The most significant difference between the formulas is dilution. Botox is much more concentrated, so it takes fewer units per treatment area. However, the price per unit of Dysport is lower, making the products comparable. Generally, Dysport and Botox are likely to have identical benefits. However, each person’s body is unique. Some patients have expressed a personal preference for one or the other, based on their own observations of results.

Similarities

There are far more similarities than differences between Botox and Dysport. They are neuromodulators, which reduce nerve signals controlling muscles. These formulas only affect the exact area of the injection, and the degree of muscle relaxation is proportionate with the amount of medication delivered. A skilled and experienced dermatologist, such as the team at Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology, can achieve precision results, relaxing rigid muscles without causing a frozen or inflexible appearance. Sometimes our goal is simply to lift the brows and not reduce expression.

Neuromodulators can achieve wonderful results, but they are only effective for a specific type of wrinkles. Often, neuromodulators are used in conjunction with treatments such as dermal fillers for comprehensive anti-aging. The most important variables are the scientific knowledge and artistic skill of the injecting dermatologist.

The best way to learn about the benefits of Botox or Dysport treatment is to experience it for yourself. Call (504) 777-3047 today and schedule an appointment at Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology.

Review From Tiffany S.
Dr. Lupo is absolutely amazing! I saw her for botox and filler before my wedding and now I am a devotee of her work. She is a master at accomplishing a natural looking and beautiful result. She has an artist's eye and a surgeon's calm hands. She is personable, kind, and funny, and I always find myself 100% at ease in her office. It is easy to be candid with her and ask for exactly what you want. She is honest and takes the time to communicate with you to make sure you're both on the same page, and you don't feel like she is running in and out of the room and rushing off to another appointment. She gives you her full attention and it makes a world of difference. I highly recommend Dr. Lupo to all my friends and family. Wonderful woman and doctor. Couldn't be happier!
