Smooth Fine Lines & Wrinkles with Dysport in New York, NY

Dysport can soften fine lines by temporarily reducing the muscle activity responsible for expression-related wrinkles. Repeated movements such as frowning, squinting, and raising the eyebrows can gradually create visible lines, particularly around the forehead and between the eyebrows. Dysport works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to carefully selected muscles, allowing the overlying skin to appear smoother and more refreshed.

Preserving natural facial expression depends greatly on careful treatment planning and precise injection placement. Rather than relaxing every muscle in an area, Dysport can be strategically administered to muscles contributing to unwanted lines while allowing surrounding muscles to continue normal movement. This targeted approach can soften wrinkles without making the face appear overly stiff or expressionless.

At Donnelley Dermatology, Dr. Naomi Donnelley, MD, FAAD, a Yale-educated, board-certified dermatologist, evaluates each client’s facial anatomy, muscle activity, wrinkle patterns, and cosmetic goals before Dysport treatment. She personalizes injection placement and dosing to help achieve smoother, balanced, natural-looking results while maintaining the facial expressions that make each client look like themselves.

Dysport can be used to soften expression-related lines in several facial areas. Depending on facial anatomy, muscle activity, and individual cosmetic goals, treatment may include:

• Frown lines (11 lines): Softens vertical lines that develop between the eyebrows.

• Forehead lines: Helps reduce horizontal lines caused by repeated eyebrow movement.

• Crow’s feet: Smooths fine lines that form around the outer corners of the eyes.

• Bunny lines: Helps soften expression lines that appear along the sides of the nose.

• Lines around the mouth: May reduce certain fine lines caused by repeated muscle movement.

• Brow area: Strategic treatment may help create a subtle lifting effect and a more refreshed appearance.

With her extensive experience in cosmetic dermatology, Dr. Naomi Donnelley, MD, FAAD, takes a thoughtful approach to Dysport treatment at Donnelley Dermatology. She carefully selects injection areas and adjusts treatment based on each client’s muscle activity and evolving facial changes, helping manage expression lines while preserving the natural movement and character of the face.

Skin condition and facial muscle activity can both influence how Dysport results look and how effectively expression-related lines are softened. Important factors include:

• Skin elasticity: Skin with good elasticity may appear smoother as the targeted facial muscles relax.

• Wrinkle type: Dynamic wrinkles caused by facial movement generally respond differently than static lines that remain visible when the face is at rest.

• Collagen and skin quality: Reduced collagen, thinning skin, or changes in skin texture may affect the overall smoothness achieved with Dysport.

• Sun damage: Significant sun-related skin changes may contribute to lines that cannot be addressed through muscle relaxation alone.

• Muscle strength: Strong facial muscles may create deeper expression lines and can influence Dysport dosing and placement.

• Facial movement patterns: Frequent frowning, squinting, smiling, or eyebrow movement can affect where lines develop and which muscles should be targeted.

• Individual anatomy: Facial structure and muscle patterns vary from person to person, making personalized treatment planning important.

At Donnelley Dermatology, Dr. Naomi Donnelley, MD, FAAD, carefully reviews each client’s skin characteristics, facial structure, muscle activity, and natural expressions when planning Dysport injections. Using these individual features as a guide, she tailors the treatment areas and amount of Dysport administered to soften visible lines while maintaining facial harmony and an authentic, refreshed appearance.

Dysport may help keep certain expression lines from becoming more noticeable by temporarily reducing repeated muscle contractions. Facial movements such as frowning, squinting, and raising the eyebrows repeatedly fold the skin, which can gradually make dynamic wrinkles more visible. By relaxing selected muscles, Dysport can reduce the repetitive movement that contributes to these lines.

With appropriately timed treatments, Dysport may help maintain a smoother appearance and slow the progression of certain movement-related lines. However, it cannot prevent every type of wrinkle because aging, sun exposure, collagen loss, genetics, and changes in skin elasticity also influence how facial lines develop over time.

At Donnelley Dermatology, every Dysport consultation includes an individualized assessment of facial expressions, wrinkle development, skin quality, and desired aesthetic outcomes. Based on these findings, Dr. Naomi Donnelley, MD, FAAD, develops a tailored injection strategy designed to soften noticeable creases while supporting comfortable movement and a refreshed appearance that complements each client’s unique features.
