What gives young people such lusciously smooth skin? Simply put, the supple quality is due to an abundance of collagen and elastin. Thanks to injectable treatments like Dysport®, that beautifully youthful look can be enjoyed by women and men who want to restore that smoothness—and the self-confidence that comes with it—without the need for plastic surgery.
Our experienced injectors create a uniquely customized care plan for every patient in order to help them achieve their personal aesthetic goals. The objective is to match your outside appearance to your inner confidence, vitality, and youthfulness.

Dysport® is an FDA-approved type of botulinum toxin similar to Botox, used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows without affecting the rest of the face. It is also known as a “neuromodulator.” Dysport Injections prevent muscles from contracting, keeping the skin at rest rather than being pulled into furrows and folds. By targeting specific facial muscles, our experienced injectors can address particular dynamic wrinkles and fine lines in the treatment areas.
Certain facial lines, known as dynamic wrinkles, are the result of muscle activity. When you make facial expressions, muscles pull the skin to the proper position to convey whatever you’re communicating—whether it’s surprise, concern, confusion, delight, or anger. Skin with healthy levels of collagen and elastin smooths out again after your muscles relax when you’re finished making the expression. Over time, with repeated muscle contractions, skin begins to develop noticeable creases in the spots where the muscles pull it into folds. The creases deepen over time and can eventually be seen even when the skin is at rest, prompting many to seek cosmetic treatment.
Our injectors use Dysport® to restore naturally smooth skin by addressing dynamic wrinkles, such as vertical frown lines that appear between the eyebrows after excessive squinting. Since these wrinkles tend to develop as two vertical lines sitting next to each other, many people call them “11’s” or “11 lines.”.
Dysport® can be injected to minimize the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and prevent them from growing deeper and being further etched into the skin. It also works well as a preventative treatment to delay lines from developing on the face in the first place.
If you want to address frown lines and other signs of aging that have developed over time, you may be an ideal candidate for Dysport®. Our expert team at VITRA Aesthetics Clinic, with locations conveniently situated in Islip, Huntington, Massapequa and Smithtown on Long Island, NY, focuses on delivering safe and natural-looking results. We understand that each individual is unique, so we will work closely with you to create a personalized care plan before starting any treatment.
Although most people require no numbing preparation, comfort is a priority for our patients at VITRA. We offer topical numbing preparations and ice packs to enhance and improve your injection experience.
The treatment will be quick, lasting only as long as needed to administer the Dysport®. Specific treatment details will depend on which areas are being injected. We consider these “lunchtime appointments” for their ease and the way they can fit seamlessly into even fairly busy schedules.

Forehead muscle activity will begin to slow in the days after your treatment, and the lines will become less noticeable over the following week. These results can last for around three months, after which muscle activity slowly returns over several weeks. For continued facial rejuvenation Dysport® can be injected again at this time so the forehead continues to stay smooth.
Other neuromodulators work similarly to Dysport®. At VITRA Aesthetics Clinic in Long Island, NY, we also offer BOTOX® (botulinum toxin type A) and Xeomin®, as well as fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Sculptra®.
