Botox & Dysport in Longmont, CO

Q: What is the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Botox and Dysport are both FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A neuromodulators that work by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. The key differences are in their formulation: Dysport has smaller molecules that diffuse more broadly, making it ideal for larger areas like the forehead. Botox stays more localized, offering precision for smaller areas like crow's feet. Dr. Jensen selects the optimal product for each treatment area based on your unique anatomy and goals.

Q: How long does Botox last?

Botox and Dysport typically last 3 to 4 months. Results begin to appear within 3 to 5 days after injection, with full effect visible at 2 weeks. With consistent maintenance treatments, many patients find their results begin lasting longer over time as the targeted muscles gradually weaken. Dr. Jensen recommends scheduling follow-up appointments every 3 to 4 months to maintain optimal results.

Q: Does Botox look natural?

Absolutely — when administered by a skilled physician. The 'frozen' look associated with Botox comes from over-treatment or improper placement. Dr. Jensen's approach is conservative and anatomically precise, preserving natural facial expression while smoothing unwanted lines. As a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon with over 30 years of experience, she has an intimate understanding of facial muscle anatomy that ensures natural, balanced results every time.

Q: Who should administer Botox?

For the safest and most natural results, Botox should be administered by a board-certified physician with advanced training in facial anatomy. At IRIS Aesthetics, Dr. Adrianna Jensen — a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon — personally performs every single injection. Led by Dr. Jensen, our expert injection team ensures the highest standard of care and artistry.

Q: When will I see results from Botox?

You will begin to notice results within 3 to 5 days after your Botox or Dysport treatment, with the full effect developing over 10 to 14 days. Dysport may show initial results slightly faster due to its smaller molecular size. Dr. Jensen schedules a complimentary 2-week follow-up to assess your results and make any refinements if needed.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

About Botox & Dysport in Longmont, CO

What is the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Both are FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A neuromodulators that temporarily relax facial muscles. The key differences are in formulation: Dysport has smaller molecules that spread more broadly, making it excellent for larger areas like the forehead. Botox stays more localized, offering precision for smaller areas like crow's feet. Dr. Jensen selects the optimal product for each treatment area based on your unique anatomy and goals — and often uses both in a single session.

How long does Botox last?

Results typically last 3 to 4 months. You will begin to notice smoothing within 3–5 days, with full effect visible at 2 weeks. With consistent maintenance treatments, many patients find their results last progressively longer as the targeted muscles gradually weaken over time. Dr. Jensen recommends scheduling follow-up appointments every 3–4 months for optimal results.

Does Botox look natural?

Absolutely — when administered by a skilled physician. The “frozen” look comes from over-treatment or improper placement, which is why your injector's expertise matters more than anything. Dr. Jensen's approach is conservative and anatomically precise, preserving your natural facial expression while smoothing unwanted lines. With over 30 years of surgical experience and an intimate knowledge of facial muscle anatomy, she delivers results that look refreshed, never overdone.

Who should administer Botox?

For the safest, most natural results, Botox should always be administered by a board-certified physician with advanced training in facial anatomy.

As a board-certified oculoplastic surgeon, she has a level of anatomical expertise that ensures precise placement, appropriate dosing, and balanced results every time.
