Botox and Dysport wrinkle reduction injections
Our highly qualified medical professionals use careful analysis and expertise to determine the right treatment(s) for you. Each brand of wrinkle reduction treatments has a different formulation of the same substance, Botulinum Toxin A, but they all work the same way.
The formula blocks the nerve impulses of the injected muscles to temporarily paralyze wrinkle-causing muscle movements. Common targets include horizontal lines across the forehead and perpendicular frown lines between the brows (also called “The Elevens”), but many also rely on Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin for crow’s feet, nasal squint lines, lines around the neck, eyebrow lifting, and even profuse underarm sweating and migraines.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can men get Botox®?
Men can and do get Botox®! Men get the same rejuvenating outcome from our skilled injectors and more and more men welcome the benefits of these anti-aging treatments each year.
What is the difference between Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin®?
The difference between Botox®, Dysport®, and Xeomin® is a slightly different formulation of the same substance, bacterium Clostridium Botulinum, or Botulinum Toxin A. They all work the same way, by temporarily paralyzing muscles that create wrinkles.
Will I look like I've had work done after Botox®?
When you come to West Linn Aesthetics for your Botox® treatments, you can trust in our expertise. The goal of injectables is to renew and refresh your appearance, not to change it. Our decades of experience and ongoing training lead to incredible yet subtle results.
What's the difference between dermal fillers and Botox®?
Botox® and similar treatments are purified neurotoxins that work with your body by temporarily freezing movement of muscles which cause dynamic wrinkles. They do not increase volume. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, "fill" areas of lost volume to restore a more youthful appearance and plump out deeper, non-dynamic wrinkles.
