How Botox/Dysport Works: Science Behind the Smooth Look
Discover how Botox and Dysport reduce facial lines safely and naturally. Expert anti-aging injections at Ariana Esthetic Edmonton.


Ever wondered how Botox or Dysport actually erase wrinkles? At Ariana Esthetic in Edmonton, we believe that when clients understand their treatments, they feel more confident, informed, and excited about their results. Let’s take a closer look at what really happens beneath the skin to create that refreshed, youthful appearance.
The Science in Simple Terms
Botox and Dysport are neuromodulators, which means they work by gently affecting the way nerves communicate with muscles. These treatments contain purified proteins that temporarily block nerve signals responsible for muscle contraction. When injected into specific facial muscles, they don’t “freeze” the face — instead, they relax overactive muscles that repeatedly crease the skin and form expression lines over time.
This process helps reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles such as crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines. By calming the muscles that cause these repetitive movements, Botox and Dysport give your skin a chance to remain smooth and wrinkle-free.
What Happens to the Skin?
As the treated muscles relax, the skin above them becomes smoother and more uniform. Fine lines fade, and deeper wrinkles soften over time. The result isn’t a stiff or unnatural look, but a refreshed, well-rested appearance. Most clients start noticing improvements within 3–7 days, with full results appearing around the two-week mark. The effects typically last 3–4 months, depending on individual muscle activity and lifestyle.
