Dysport
in Cresskill, NJ
Fine lines across your forehead and between your brows form from years of repeated muscle movement. Dysport relaxes those specific muscles so the skin above them smooths out without freezing the rest of your face.
At GLOW by Elena Reitman MD, Dr. Reitman injects Dysport with a technique calibrated to your muscle strength and facial anatomy. Patients in Cresskill and Bergen County walk out with full expression and fewer lines.
What Is Dysport?
Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA) is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator that temporarily blocks nerve signals to targeted facial muscles. The reduced muscle contraction smooths dynamic wrinkles, primarily horizontal forehead lines, frown lines between the brows (glabellar lines), and crow's feet around the eyes.
The active ingredient in Dysport spreads slightly wider per injection point than some competitor formulas. That diffusion pattern makes it well-suited for broad, flat muscle groups like the frontalis.
Dr. Reitman at GLOW uses this property strategically, placing fewer injection points while covering the same treatment zone.
Dysport takes effect within two to three days for most patients, faster than many alternatives in the neuromodulator category. Results typically last three to four months before a maintenance session is needed.
Benefits of Dysport
Faster Onset Than Botox
Most GLOW patients see Dysport results within 48 to 72 hours. Botox typically takes five to seven days to reach full effect. If you have an event in Cresskill or Bergen County this weekend, Dysport gives you a tighter timeline.
Natural Movement Preserved
Dr. Reitman doses Dysport conservatively at GLOW. The goal is to soften lines while keeping your eyebrows, forehead, and eyes moving naturally. Overcorrection is a choice, not a side effect, and GLOW by Elena Reitman MD does not make that choice.
Smooth, Even Results on Large Areas
Dysport's diffusion pattern covers wide muscle groups without a "frozen patch" effect. GLOW patients who treat their full forehead notice an even texture across the entire zone rather than isolated smooth spots between wrinkled sections.
Physician-Led Care at GLOW
Every treatment at GLOW is performed or directly overseen by Dr. Elena Reitman, an Ivy League-trained, board-certified physician with eleven years of operating room experience.
Treatment Areas for Dysport
Forehead Lines
Horizontal creases across the forehead respond well to Dysport because the frontalis muscle is broad and flat. GLOW by Elena Reitman MD maps your forehead muscle activity before injecting, so the dose matches your specific contraction pattern.
Frown Lines (Glabellar Lines)
The vertical "11" lines between your brows come from the corrugator and procerus muscles. Dysport relaxes both, softening the crease that makes resting faces look tense or angry.
Crow's Feet
Fine lines that fan out from the outer corners of your eyes deepen with every squint and smile. Dysport at GLOW targets the orbicularis oculi muscle with precise micro-doses that smooth the lines without affecting your smile shape.
Common Questions About Dysport
How long does Dysport last? +
Dysport results at GLOW typically last three to four months. Some patients with lighter muscle activity see results hold closer to five months. Dr. Reitman recommends scheduling your next appointment before full movement returns to maintain a consistent appearance.
Does Dysport hurt? +
The needles used for Dysport at GLOW are 30-gauge or finer. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief pinch at each injection point. Dr. Reitman's anesthesiology background means she understands nerve pathways and places each injection to minimize discomfort.
What is the difference between Dysport and Botox? +
Both are botulinum toxin type A injectables that relax facial muscles. Dysport diffuses more broadly per injection point and often takes effect faster (two to three days vs. five to seven).
GLOW by Elena Reitman MD stocks both and selects the product based on your anatomy and treatment goals.
Can I get Dysport on my lunch break? +
A Dysport session at GLOW takes 10 to 15 minutes. There is no downtime. Patients from Cresskill and nearby Bergen County towns routinely schedule midday appointments and return to work immediately.
