Injectable treatments have added a new dimension to the field of cosmetic surgery, allowing new forms of nonsurgical facial rejuvenation. Center for Plastic Surgery Ann Arbor offers BOTOX Cosmetic and Dysport to men and women in Chelsea, Canton, and Brighton, looking to soften the appearance of fine lines without taking a surgical approach. Our injection team consists of board-certified and board-eligible plastic surgeons, a physician assistant, and a registered nurse, giving our patients the reassurance that their results will look natural.
BOTOX and Dysport are both FDA approved and made from botulinum toxin. These treatments temporarily suspend the contractions of facial muscles that cause certain wrinkles, allowing the wrinkles to gradually smooth out.

BOTOX vs. Dermal Fillers
Is BOTOX a filler? While both are injectable treatments, BOTOX and dermal fillers serve very different purposes. BOTOX and fillers such as JUVÉDERM® products treat different types of wrinkles. BOTOX and Dysport minimize the appearance of dynamic wrinkles or “expression lines” that develop from years of changing facial expressions. Fillers, on the other hand, treat wrinkles and lines caused by age-related volume loss, sun exposure, and the loss of collagen. These are called static wrinkles. Patients often choose to get both BOTOX and filler injections during a single appointment, which is sometimes called a nonsurgical facelift.
BOTOX FAQs
What is BOTOX made of?
BOTOX is made from a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, a naturally occurring protein produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. This substance works by temporarily blocking nerve signals to the muscles, reducing their activity and smoothing dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial movements.
How long does BOTOX last?
The results of BOTOX injections usually last between 3 and 4 months.
How often should I get BOTOX injections?
If you want to maintain your results, we recommend scheduling treatments every 3 to 4 months. The amount of BOTOX needed for maintenance treatments is often less than your initial injections.
Does it make you look older after it wears off?
A common misconception is that you’ll look older when the effects of BOTOX wear off. BOTOX limits the movement of muscles that cause wrinkles to develop. So regular BOTOX treatments can actually help you appear younger even when you stop getting injections.
What are some BOTOX alternatives to make results last longer?
BOTOX and Dysport are the most effective nonsurgical treatments for minimizing the appearance of certain types of wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles. To get more long-lasting results, you could opt for procedures such as a brow lift or eyelid surgery.
What’s the best age to start getting BOTOX injections?
We recommend getting BOTOX injections when you notice the first signs of aging. That could be in your late 20s or your 30s. Getting BOTOX at that point helps delay the development of more wrinkles, which is often called “preventative BOTOX.”
What can I do to make BOTOX results last longer?
The key to making your results last as long as possible is following good skincare practices. That includes applying sunscreen daily, staying hydrated, maintaining a daily skincare regimen that includes collagen-boosting ingredients, and reducing stress.
Is BOTOX better than Dysport?
Neither BOTOX nor Dysport is better than the other. Each product has its place. Dysport tends to disperse faster than BOTOX and may be a better option for larger treatment areas, such as the forehead, while BOTOX is best for more precise treatment areas.
