BOOK NOWDysport® is a prescription injection used primarily for the temporary improvement of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, known as glabellar lines, in adults. It is a type of botulinum toxin, similar to Botox, that works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles. This relaxation of the muscles reduces the appearance of wrinkles caused by facial expressions. Dysport® may also be used for other purposes, such as treating certain types of muscle stiffness or spasms in other parts of the body. It's important for treatments like Dysport® to be administered by qualified healthcare professionals to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Dysport® injections are primarily used for aesthetic purposes on the face, but they can also have therapeutic applications in other parts of the body. Here are some common areas where Dysport® can be administered:
Perioral Lines: Lines around the mouth or "smoker’s lines" can be softened with Dysport®.
Dysport® must be administered by a healthcare professional familiar with the anatomy and proper technique to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Dysport® and Botox are both injectable neuromodulators used primarily to treat and prevent wrinkles, but they have some differences in terms of formulation, dosing, diffusion, and potential uses. Here are the key distinctions:
Although both are derived from botulinum toxin type A, the proteins that accompany the toxin in Dysport® and Botox are slightly different, which affects their diffusion and potency.
The units of measurement for Dysport® and Botox are different. This means that a specific number of units of Botox does not equate to the same number of units of Dysport®; Dysport® generally requires more units to achieve similar effects as Botox.
Dysport® tends to spread more than Botox, which can be beneficial or undesirable depending on the area being treated. This characteristic makes Dysport® potentially more effective for treating larger areas with fewer injections, but it also increases the risk of affecting unintended muscles.
Some studies suggest that the effects of Dysport® may appear sooner than those of Botox, which can take several days to take full effect.
The duration of the effect is similar for both treatments, typically lasting about 3 to 4 months, although this can vary based on the individual, the area treated, and the specific conditions of the treatment.
Both Dysport® and Botox are approved for aesthetic and medical uses, but their specific approved indications can vary. For example, both are approved for treating glabellar lines, but Botox has a wider range of FDA-approved therapeutic uses.
The cost may vary between the two treatments depending on the provider, location, and required dosage.
