BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® in Mill Valley
Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes, forehead, or between the brows can gradually affect your appearance and how others perceive your mood. Luckily, Belle Marin Aesthetic Medicine in Mill Valley offers BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport® to temporarily soften these dynamic wrinkles.

It doesn’t matter if you’re noticing the early signs of aging or looking for a way to maintain a refreshed appearance. These injectable treatments offer a non-surgical approach with natural-looking results. Dr. Faye Jamali, a licensed physician with over 25 years of experience, combines precision and artistry to deliver unmatched outcomes.
What's the Difference Between BOTOX Cosmetic and Dysport?
- Dysport has smaller protein molecules, which may allow it to spread more quickly across a larger area. This can make it a suitable choice for broader treatment zones, such as the forehead.
- BOTOX tends to stay more localized, which can be ideal for precise areas such as crow’s feet or frown lines.
Areas BOTOX and Dysport Can Treat
- Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Lip lines
- Chin dimpling
- Neck bands
Ideal Candidates for BOTOX and Dysport

FAQs
When Will I See Results?
BOTOX typically takes 4-7 days to reveal optimal benefits. Dysport results may show up a bit sooner, around 2-3 days. For both injections, it can take about a week for the effects to fully take effect.
Will I Look Like I've Had Work Done?
No one should be able to tell you’ve had BOTOX or Dysport. This treatment simply relaxes the muscle activity underlying your wrinkles. It doesn’t alter the surface of your skin.
When administered properly by a trained and licensed injector who is well-versed in facial anatomy, this injectable reveals the most flattering and natural-looking effects.
Are There Any Side Effects?
With any injection, there is a risk of some swelling at the injection site, but this reaction usually subsides quickly after treatment. Other possible side effects include bruising and pinpoint bleeding, which also resolve on their own.
We will work with you to minimize your risk of side effects, including applying ice after treatment to curb swelling. We also recommend Arnica Montana, a natural anti-bruising supplement, and avoiding alcohol and NSAIDS like aspirin up to a week before and after your session to reduce your risk of bruising.
Do Injections Hurt?
BOTOX and Dysport injections are surprisingly quick and easy to administer. These well-tolerated injections utilize a tiny needle, which is carefully inserted into the skin to target specific areas.
You may feel a slight pinch as you are being injected, but the procedure is so efficient and gentle that you will be surprised by how comfortable you actually feel.
How Long Will My Results Last?
BOTOX and Dysport in Marin County can smooth lines and wrinkles around the forehead and eyes for up to 4 months per treatment.
