Treatment Areas
Dysport® injections are minimally invasive, can be completed in just 10 minutes, and require no recovery period. While you should refrain from strenuous exercise and remain upright for a few hours after treatment to ensure your injections settle correctly, you can resume most activities immediately following your appointment. Dysport® injections are commonly used to treat lines and wrinkles in the following areas:
Glabellar lines (the “11s”)
Forehead lines
Perioral lines (the “lipstick lines”)
Dysport® vs. Other Injectables
Dysport® is a frequently used brand of wrinkle-reducing injectable, but it’s not the only choice. Here are three other alternatives to compare:
Xeomin
Unlike other botulinum toxin treatments, Xeomin® does not include additional proteins, which means patients are less likely to develop a tolerance. Xeomin is an excellent option if you no longer see results with similar treatments.

Botox
Although Botox is similar to Dysport®, it has larger and slower-moving molecules. In other words, while Dysport® works better spreading across larger areas, like the forehead, Botox performs well on smaller areas.
Jeuveau
Other wrinkle-reducing neurotoxin treatments were developed for medical use first, then approved for cosmetic procedures. Jeuveau was created solely for aesthetics and is also one of the newest treatments on the market.
Is Dysport® right for me?
Dysport® is recommended for people between 18 and 65 who want to reduce the appearance of frown lines. It may not be appropriate for people with certain medical conditions. As with all injectable treatments, you may experience mild swelling, bruising, bleeding, or redness at the injection site. However, these side effects are usually minimal and resolve within a day or two.
