Dysport®

Dysport provides temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines that are caused by the activity of the procerus and corrugator muscles in patients. Dysport helps them look consistently natural—not frozen—because it allows the untreated facial muscles to work normally, which in turn helps patients freely show facial expressions in untreated areas.

Just one 10-20–minute Dysport treatment may help improve the look of the frown lines between your eyebrows for up to 5 months. There should be little to no downtime after your treatment. Dysport delivers noticeable results in as little as 24 hours after treatment, and typically within 2-3 days, with results that may last up to 5 months.

Botulinum Toxins

Dysport and Botox are both made from botulinum toxin type A. All botulinum toxins have the same mechanism of action: blocking the release of acetylcholine (ACh) and preventing the muscles from contracting to maintain the aesthetic effect. However, the dose of Dysport is not the same as the dose of any other botulinum toxin product and cannot be compared to the dosage of any other botulinum toxin product that you may have previously used.

Who Should Not Receive Dysport?
