Botox Cosmetic (onobotulinum toxin A) and Dysport (abobutulinum toxin A) are FDA-approved treatments that reduce or even prevent those facial wrinkles that are caused by movement. Both work by blocking the message a muscle receives telling it to contract, almost like taking the phone off the hook. When the muscle doesn't contract, the creasing motions stop that cause lines like crow's feet, frown lines and forehead creases, for example.

Since its FDA approval in 2002, BOTOX^® Cosmetic has been the number-one physician-administered aesthetic procedure in the United States. Botox® has been used safely for over 16 years for a variety of medical conditions and is one of the most researched medicines in the world. Dysport was approved in the U.S. in 2009 but has been used in over 23 countries safely for 15 years.

Both products are probably most known for their use in relaxing frown lines, crow's feet and forehead creases. Dr. Elliott also performs more advanced Botox® techniques to lift the eyebrows, the jaw line and the corners of the mouth, soften lines on the neck and décolleté, turn up the upper lip, and soften a "bumpy" chin. When done by an expert, Botox® Cosmetic can be used in all of these areas without giving you a "frozen" look.

Be confident that you're getting the safest, most effective treatment with Botox® Cosmetic by choosing a physician who teaches other doctors these techniques. Allergan, the maker of Botox® Cosmetic, has designated Dr. Cynthia Elliott a  Platinum Plus Level physician because she's one of the busiest Botox® Cosmetic injectors in the country. Because of her experience and reputation she has also been chosen by Allergan to be both an instructor and a speaker for other physicians.

Dysport™ is the newest injectable muscle relaxant that softens or erases the wrinkles caused by muscle movement. It has been available in Europe, Asia and South America and has been used safely for over 15 years. It differs from Botox Cosmetic in that it's effects may spread out farther, which can be an advantage or disadvantage, depending on the goal of treatment, and the results are usually noticable a day or so sooner than Botox Cosmetic results. The price of Dysport is comparable to Botox Cosmetic and we offer both for your personal preference.
