Should You Choose Dysport or BOTOX?

Dysport is made from the same botulinum toxin protein. Although BOTOX remains very effective, there may be some factors that make Dysport the right choice for you.

If you have mild to moderate wrinkling between your eyebrows, Dysport might be the best choice for you. There are several reasons to consider Dysport for your aesthetic treatment.

Treatment sessions are quick. In a simple office visit that takes less than 20 minutes, the Dysport is injected into specific areas around your forehead. These are generally not painful and feel like small pinpricks.

There is virtually no recovery period. Outside of some soreness and redness, you can return to your regular life as soon as you leave the office. Best of all, you should begin to see results in about 3 days. These results will also last around 4 months.

Results may be seen faster than with BOTOX. Many patients have reported seeing results up to 4 days faster than when undergoing similar treatments with BOTOX.

It is less expensive per unit compared to BOTOX. While both products help reduce wrinkles and lines on the face, in the same way, Dysport is about 3 times more diluted than BOTOX. This results in a less expensive price per unit. Although more might be needed to achieve similar results in some areas, this allows for more even distribution over the face.

Although you will need to come in for additional treatments as the results fade, a simple and short office visit can fit in with your schedule. Depending on how well your body reacts to the Dysport, you may see longer-lasting results.
