Refinement is not about looking different: it is about looking unmistakably like yourself. Dysport® offers a non-surgical way to soften dynamic wrinkles while preserving natural expressions. At Dr. David Phillips’ practice, every treatment is tailored to your facial anatomy, helping you achieve a refreshed, rested appearance that appears effortless and timeless.
Preserve Expressions While Smoothing Wrinkles
Dysport is an FDA-approved neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes the specific facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles, such as the frown lines between the eyebrows and forehead lines. It works by interrupting the nerve signals that trigger repeated muscle contractions, allowing the overlying skin to appear smoother and more refined. Rather than changing who you are, Dysport softens signs of expression that have become etched into the skin over time.
What Does Dysport Treat?
Dysport addresses wrinkles caused by repeated facial movement, including:
- Moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Horizontal forehead lines created by eyebrow elevation
- Crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes
- Dynamic wrinkles that deepen during expressions

A Message from Dr. Phillips
In His Own Words.
“I do not believe in fads, and I do not believe in over-stylized aesthetics. The goal is a result that will still look right in twenty, and in forty. The smallest change that achieves that goal is almost always the right one. Subtle ages well. Overdone is obvious.”
Dysport as a Complement to
Facial Surgery
As a rhinoplasty specialist, Dr. David Phillips approaches facial aesthetics through the lens of harmony, proportion, and long-term balance. While rhinoplasty can refine the central feature of the face, surrounding signs of aging or facial tension may continue to draw attention away from the result. For this reason, Dr. Phillips often incorporates Dysport into comprehensive treatment plans. Softening dynamic wrinkles can enhance overall facial balance.
What Happens During Dysport?
Your treatment begins with a detailed facial assessment, during which Dr. Phillips evaluates your muscle movement and facial balance, and areas of concern. You may be asked to smile, frown, or raise your eyebrows so he can identify the specific muscles creating your dynamic wrinkles. Using a fine needle, Dysport is then precisely injected into targeted muscles. The procedure takes only a few minutes.
What Can I Expect After Dysport?
After treatment, you can typically return to most normal activities right away. You may notice mild redness, swelling, or pinpoint marks at the injection sites, but these effects usually resolve quickly. Dysport does not produce an immediate change: the treated muscles gradually relax over the following days. As movement softens, wrinkles become less noticeable. The final results last 3 to 4 months.
Natural Results. Singular Focus. Enduring Refinement.
As a dual board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon and rhinoplasty specialist, Dr. David Phillips believes aesthetic treatments should enhance your features, not redefine them. Every Dysport treatment is guided by a deep understanding of facial anatomy, balance, and restraint. If you are seeking refined, authentic facial rejuvenation in New York City, schedule your consultation for Dysport with Dr. Phillips and entrust your care to a facial plastic surgeon.
