Dysport is an FDA-approved botulinum toxin type A injection that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles; those formed by repeated facial movements like frowning, squinting, and smiling.
Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume, Dysport works by relaxing the muscles, making it ideal for expression lines such as forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and crow’s feet.
Dysport works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles, preventing excessive contractions that cause wrinkles. This results in smoother skin, reduced fine lines, and a more youthful appearance.
Dysport can be used across various facial and body areas to improve aesthetics and functionality.
Treatment Area | Purpose |
Forehead Wrinkles | Softens horizontal lines from frequent eyebrow movement. |
Glabellar Lines (Frown Lines) | Reduces the vertical lines between the eyebrows. |
Crow’s Feet | Smooths fine lines at the corners of the eyes. |
Jaw Slimming (Masseter Reduction) | Reduces the masseter muscles, creating a slimmer, V-shaped face. |
Shoulder and Calf Slimming | Helps contour and reduce bulk in these muscle areas. |
Hyperhidrosis (Excessive Sweating) | Blocks sweat glands to prevent excessive sweating in the underarms, palms, or feet. |
Dysport’s unique wider diffusion makes it particularly effective for treating larger areas like the forehead compared to Botox.
Both Dysport and Botox are botulinum toxin treatments used to reduce wrinkles and fine lines. However, they have subtle differences:
Feature | Dysport | Botox |
Dilution | More diluted, requiring higher units. | More concentrated, fewer units needed. |
Spread | Diffuses faster and wider, ideal for larger areas. | Stays localised, better for precise injections. |
Onset of results | 2-3 days | 7-9 days |
Longevity | 3-4 months | 3-6 months |
Cost per unit | Cheaper per unit, but more units required. | More expensive per unit, but fewer needed. |
Both treatments are effective, and the choice depends on your facial anatomy, goals, and doctor’s recommendation.
A Dysport session is quick, minimally invasive, and requires little to no downtime.
