Wrinkle-relaxing injectables like Botox and Dysport work by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause movement-related wrinkles such as furrows between the brows, lines on the forehead and crow’s feet around the eyes. These injectable treatments can also be used to relax the vertical bands that appear on the neck. There are subtle differences between these products, but they both achieve the same goal: The smoothing of lines, wrinkles and furrows within one week of treatment, and visible results for up to three months.

In addition to cosmetic uses, Botox and Dysport are also FDA-approved for the treatment of hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating. They work by temporarily disabling the sweat glands, and studies show that results last longer with ongoing treatment.
