Dysport

Dysport is an injectable neuromodulator made from abobotulinumtoxinA, a purified form of botulinum toxin type A. To put it simply, Dysport works by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles that cause those little lines that deepen when you smile, squint, or frown (AKA dynamic wrinkles).

Although it’s often compared to Botox, Dysport has unique characteristics that make it a favorite for treating larger areas, such as the forehead and glabellar lines. Dysport spreads slightly more than Botox, making it ideal for broader zones of correction.

In the Dysport vs. Botox conversation, both deliver amazing results. The right choice depends on your individual goals, muscle structure, and how quickly you want to see results.

Here’s one of Dysport’s biggest perks: it works fast. Many people notice a smoother, more relaxed appearance in just two to three days, with full results developing in about a week. Results typically last about four months, depending on your metabolism, muscle movement, and treatment area.

After your Dysport injections, we recommend:

• Staying upright for four hours
• Avoiding strenuous activity for 24 hours
• Skipping facials or massages for a day or two

Mild redness or swelling at injection sites is totally normal and usually fades within a few hours. To maintain your results, plan for follow-up treatments every three or four months. Over time, after receiving Dysport, Houston patients tend to find they need fewer units to keep wrinkles at bay.
