NEUROTOXINS
Botox® Dysport® Letybo® Injections
What Are Cosmetic Neurotoxins?
Neurotoxins like Botox®, Dysport®, and Letybo® are effective injectable treatments used to smooth fine lines, prevent wrinkles, and refresh your appearance — all with minimal downtime. At BodyBrite Austin, our experienced injectors will help you choose the right solution for your skin goals.
Botox®
What is Botox?
Botox® is an FDA-approved treatment that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet in adults. It’s one of the most trusted and widely used cosmetic injectables in the U.S.
How does it work?
Botox works beneath the surface to relax the muscles that cause facial wrinkles. As those muscles relax, the skin above them smooths out — giving you a refreshed, younger look.
Common treatment areas:
– Forehead lines
– Frown lines (between the eyebrows)
– Crow’s feet (around the eyes)
Dysport®
What is Dysport?
Dysport® is an FDA-approved neuromodulator designed to smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows — without changing the look or movement of the rest of your face.
How does it work?
Dysport temporarily reduces muscle activity in targeted areas, softening the lines that form from repeated facial expressions. It’s known for kicking in a bit faster than Botox for some patients.
Common treatment areas:
– Glabellar lines (between the brows)
– Forehead lines
– Crow’s feet
– Chin dimpling and neck bands (off-label)
Letybo®
What is Letybo?
Letybo® is a newly FDA-approved neuromodulator in the U.S., widely used in South Korea and Europe for years. It’s designed to reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles like frown lines and crow’s feet.
How does it work?
Letybo works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause lines and wrinkles. It offers similar results to Botox and Dysport, with a smoother feel and slightly more gentle onset for some patients.
Common treatment areas:
– Frown lines
– Forehead lines
– Crow’s feet
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long do the results last?
The effects of Botox®, Dysport®, and Letybo® typically last 3 to 4 months. Some patients in Austin may enjoy results up to 5 months, depending on their metabolism, lifestyle, and treatment area.
Are there any side effects?
Mild side effects may include redness, swelling, or slight bruising at the injection site. These usually resolve within a few hours to a couple of days. Serious side effects are rare when treatments are performed by trained professionals, like our licensed injectors in Austin, TX.
When can I return to work?
Most patients return to work or daily activities right after their appointment. There's little to no downtime with Botox®, Dysport®, and Letybo® treatments at our BodyBrite Austin Med spa.
Will my face appear overdone or unnatural?
The neirotoxins treatment requires a skilled approach for optimal results. Therefore, it's crucial to select a trained, licensed, and experienced medical specialist with a deep understanding of facial anatomy. The objective of this treatment is for you to look like yourself but with less noticeable lines. Others shouldn't be able to tell that you have undergone treatment.
How do I choose between Botox, Dysport, and Letybo?
Each neuromodulator has subtle differences. Botox is the most well-known. Dysport may spread slightly more, which some prefer for forehead areas. Letybo is newer in the U.S. but widely used abroad. During your free consultation in Austin, we’ll help you choose the best option for your goals.
What if I’ve never had injections before?
No worries — you’re not alone! Many of our Austin clients are first-timers. We’ll walk you through the process, answer all your questions, and make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way.
Do I have to be 40-plus to start using BOTOX?
It is not how old you are that dictates when you should start using BOTOX®. Instead, the severity of lines determines when you should start treatment. Interestingly, 64% of plastic surgeons have reported an increase in demand for cosmetic surgeries or injectable treatments among patients in their early 30s.
It's important to note that every individual's facial lines develop differently, with several factors playing a role. These can be cellular changes that happen over time, genetic factors, a decrease in collagen production, and exposure to free radicals from the sun and environment. So, if you feel bothered by your facial lines, consult a doctor. The specialist will evaluate your situation to determine whether BOTOX is a suitable treatment.
What should I expect after the BOTOX, DYSPORT or LETYBO treatment?
After your neuromodulator treatment in Austin, TX, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or small bumps at the injection sites — this is normal and usually fades within a few hours. You can return to most daily activities right away, but it’s best to avoid intense exercise, alcohol, and rubbing the treated areas for 24 hours.
Results from Botox, Dysport, or Letybo typically begin to appear within 2 to 5 days, with full effects visible by day 7 to 10. Your injector will provide personalized aftercare instructions to help you get the best results.
