I’m a 43-year-old woman interested in facial injections

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question:I’m a 43-year-old woman interested in facial injections to reduce the wrinkling on my face. I’ve been considering either Botox or Dysport. I was leaning toward Dysport, but then I found out that it’s made from cow-derived substances. Unfortunately, I’m lactose intolerant. Will I have a reaction to Dysport because of this? Answer:Your research is… [Read More]

I am frequently asked questions regarding the potential
