FAQ
What is Dysport®?
Dysport® is an FDA-approved injectable neuromodulator used to soften the appearance of moderate to severe wrinkles—particularly frown lines between the eyebrows. Like Botox®, it uses botulinum toxin type A to relax targeted facial muscles and deliver smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
How Does Dysport® Work?
Dysport® temporarily blocks the nerve signals to muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those formed from expressions like frowning or squinting. This reduces muscle activity and softens visible lines, especially in areas like the glabella (the “11s” between your brows).
Our trained injectors take a personalized approach to ensure natural-looking, balanced results tailored to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Dysport®?
Dysport® is commonly used to treat:
-
Frown lines (glabellar lines or “11s”)
-
Forehead wrinkles
-
Crow’s feet (lines around the eyes)
-
Bunny lines (nose wrinkles)
-
Neck bands
-
Jawline slimming (masseter muscles)
Dysport® is especially effective in larger treatment areas due to its broader spread.
How Long Does a Dysport® Treatment Take?
Most sessions take just 15–20 minutes, making it an ideal lunchtime procedure. There’s little to no downtime, so you can resume your normal activities right away.
When Will I See Results, and How Long Do They Last?
Dysport® typically starts working within 2–3 days, faster than some other wrinkle relaxers. Full results are usually visible within a week and can last up to 3–4 months, depending on the individual.
Is Dysport® Painful To Get?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort during treatment. Dysport® is administered using fine needles, and a topical anesthetic can be applied if needed. The procedure is quick, and patients often describe it as a series of small pinches.
What is the Difference Between Dysport® and Other Treatments?
Dysport® is one of several neuromodulators on the market, including Botox®, Daxxify®, Jeuveau®, and Xeomin®. What sets Dysport® apart is its slightly faster onset and wider diffusion, making it ideal for treating larger areas like the forehead.
Choosing the best injectable depends on your treatment goals, how your body responds, and your preferences. Our team will guide you through your options during your consultation.
