Dysport

What It Is

Dysport is an FDA-approved neurotoxin known for its quick onset and natural-looking results. Like Botox and Xeomin, it temporarily relaxes muscles that cause dynamic wrinkles, but Dysport spreads slightly more after injection, making it especially effective for treating broader areas like the forehead. Clients often appreciate Dysport's softer, more diffused effect that smooths a wider area with fewer injections. It's a favorite for those who want fast results without sacrificing facial expression.

How It Works

Your provider will assess your facial movement patterns and recommend an injection plan tailored to you. Treatment involves a series of small injections into targeted muscles using a fine needle. The appointment takes 10–15 minutes, and you can resume normal activities immediately. Many clients begin seeing results within 2–3 days with full effect within a week. Results typically last 3–4 months.

Ideal Candidate

Dysport works particularly well for clients with moderate-to-severe forehead lines or frown lines and those who prefer a softer, more diffused effect. It's a great choice for new neurotoxin users and experienced clients looking to try something different. Avoid Dysport if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, allergic to cow's milk protein (an inactive ingredient), or have certain neuromuscular conditions.

Aftercare & Recovery

Stay upright for at least 4 hours after treatment. Avoid touching or massaging treated areas for 24 hours. Skip vigorous exercise, alcohol, and saunas on the day of treatment. Minor redness, swelling, or bruising at injection sites is normal and short-lived. Avoid blood-thinning supplements before treatment when medically possible to reduce bruising risk.
