botox/dysport at Ariba med spa
Botox and Dysport is a safe FDA-approved treatment for wrinkles and fine lines on the forehead and around the eyes. It’s one of the most popular and effective cosmetic treatments among both men and women. It is commonly used as both a treatment for wrinkles and to help prevent wrinkle formation.
Botox and Dysport is a neurotoxin that attaches itself to nerve endings causing them to block the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that’s responsible for triggering your facial muscles’ contractions. Your facial muscles relax, and the line and wrinkles in the skin above them smooth away.
