Regenerative aesthetics
Dysport and Jeuveau in Sarasota
Fine lines soften. Crow’s feet ease. Your face still looks like you, just more rested.
- Frown lines (between the brows)
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet
- Bunny lines and nose wrinkles
If you searched “dysport near me” or “wrinkle relaxers near me,” you likely have specific spots that bother you when you catch your reflection. The crease between your brows. The lines that sit on your forehead even when your face is at rest. The little fan of lines at the outer corners of your eyes.
Those lines show up because the same muscles contract in the same way, over and over, for years. The skin folds in the same places, collagen thins, and the lines stop bouncing back.
Dysport and Jeuveau calm the muscle activity that keeps reinforcing those creases. The skin has a chance to smooth, while your natural expression stays.
At Lesh Lifestyle in Sarasota, neuromodulator treatments are quiet, precise tools inside a larger plan. Dr. Sarah Secor-Jones, DO, FACEP uses them to support how you feel in your skin and keep your features recognizable to you.
How Dysport and Jeuveau work for lines
Expression lines are formed by muscles that sit just under the skin. When you frown, squint, laugh or raise your brows in the same way for years, those muscles build strong patterns. The skin creases in the same spots and, over time, those creases stay even when your face is still.
Dysport and Jeuveau are neuromodulators. In practical terms, they interrupt the signal from the nerve to the muscle at very specific points. The muscle can still work, but with less force. With repeated over-contraction reduced, the overlying skin is not pulled into a deep fold every time you move.
For you, that means movement lines can soften as the skin is not being creased as strongly. New lines are less likely to etch in as deeply while the product is active. Expression remains, because only selected muscles and precise doses are treated.
Dr. Sarah looks at where your lines are now, how your face moves, and how those two relate. The plan is built from what your muscles are actually doing in real time.
Results and timing
Neuromodulators do not work instantly. They need time to bind at the nerve ending and change the way the signal reaches the muscle.
You usually start to notice softening of lines within the first several days, with full effect appearing after that initial period. Results last for a season, then gradually wear off as muscle activity returns.
As the product slowly fades, lines become more visible again. Some patients in Sarasota prefer to schedule regular visits a few times per year to keep lines softer over time.
Dr. Sarah will review what to expect at your specific dose and can plan a follow-up check if needed, especially for your first treatment as an existing patient at Lesh Lifestyle.
Safety, comfort and who performs your injections
All neuromodulator treatments at Lesh Lifestyle are performed by Dr. Sarah herself.
As a board-certified physician, she is trained to evaluate whether Dysport or Jeuveau is appropriate for you, considering:
- Your medical history and any neuromuscular conditions.
- Past reactions to similar products.
- Current medications and supplements.
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding status.
Common side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as slight redness, swelling, bruising or tenderness at injection sites. Less common risks, such as eyelid or brow heaviness, are discussed beforehand so you know what to watch for.
If something does not feel right after your visit, you have direct access to the same practice and the same doctor who treated you.

Regenerative aesthetics
What Dysport and Jeuveau can help with
Frown lines (between the brows)
That “11” between your eyebrows can make you look tired or tense even on a good day. By relaxing the small muscles that pull your brows together, Dysport or Jeuveau can soften that crease so your face reads calmer and more open.
Is it right for you
Who neuromodulators are and are not for
Dysport and Jeuveau may be a good fit if:
They may not be right for you if:
If neuromodulators are not the safest or most effective option for your concern, Dr. Sarah will say so and outline other routes, such as PRF-based treatments, microneedling, or work on hormones and metabolism first.
• You notice lines from movement that stay even when your face is relaxed.
• You want a rested, smoother look without changing your features.
• You are already engaged with your health at Lesh Lifestyle and see aesthetics as part of feeling more like yourself.
• You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• You have certain neuromuscular disorders or specific medical contraindications.
• You are looking for dramatic lifting or volume changes that call for other treatments.
The process
Your Dysport or Jeuveau visit in Sarasota
You can expect your neuromodulator appointment at Lesh Lifestyle to feel calm, unhurried, and direct.
- You start with a visit where Dr. Sarah listens to what is bothering you and examines your face at rest and in motion. She will ask you to frown, raise your brows, smile and squint so she can see exactly which muscles are active and how strongly. Photos may be taken to document your baseline. If you wear makeup, some may be gently removed from the areas to be treated. Your skin is cleaned and prepared so the surface feels cool and fresh. There is time to ask questions. Dr. Sarah will explain which product she recommends, why she chose Dysport or Jeuveau for you, and what to expect over the next days and weeks.
- The injection portion is usually quite quick, depending on how many areas you are treating. You may feel a small pinch or pressure with each injection point. Most patients describe it as brief and very tolerable. If you are nervous about needles, you can say so. The pace can be slowed, and you will be told what is happening before each step. Dr. Sarah uses fine needles and measured doses. She watches your face as she works, adjusting placement to your anatomy rather than following a pre-set grid. You stay seated in a treatment chair in a quiet room. The atmosphere is relaxed, like a conversation where something practical is getting done.
- Right after your Dysport or Jeuveau injections, you might see tiny raised bumps at the injection sites. These usually settle within a short time. Mild redness is common and fades over the same timeframe. Most people feel comfortable going back to work or their normal day in Sarasota right away. There is no bandaging. Makeup can usually be applied later that day if needed, once any pinpoint marks have settled. You will receive clear instructions on what to avoid in the first hours, such as heavy exercise or pressing firmly on the treated areas.
