What Is Dysport?

Dysport is an injectable neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. It contains botulinum toxin type A, which works by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract.

By softening these repetitive movements, Dysport helps create a smoother, more refreshed appearance without altering natural facial expressions. The treatment is quick, minimally invasive, and typically requires little to no downtime, making it a popular choice for individuals seeking subtle, natural-looking rejuvenation.

Dysport vs. Botox: What's the Difference?

Dysport and Botox both include botulinum toxin type A, but are made by different companies. Botox has been available for longer, but Dysport is now FDA-approved and has been found to be as safe and effective as Botox.

Dysport and Botox differ in the number of proteins that surround the active molecules. Dysport has less protein than Botox, which means it spreads over a wider area more effectively than Botox. This allows for quicker absorption and fewer needle punctures in areas such as the forehead and armpits.

Dysport Injection Procedure

Consultation

Dysport treatment begins with a consultation, where our provider evaluates your facial anatomy and discusses your aesthetic goals. During this visit, you’ll have the opportunity to share the specific areas you’d like to address, such as forehead lines or frown lines, and we will explain how Dysport can help achieve a smoother, natural look. We will also review your medical history and determine whether you’re a good candidate for treatment.

Preparation

Prior to treatment, you’ll receive detailed instructions to help ensure the best possible results and minimize side effects. We typically recommend avoiding alcohol and blood thinners for several days before your appointment, as these can increase the risk of bruising. Your provider will also cleanse the skin and mark the injection sites for accuracy and symmetry.

Injections

During the procedure, a series of small Dysport injections are placed directly into the targeted muscles. The process is quick and generally well-tolerated, with most appointments lasting approximately 10 to 20 minutes. The number of injections and the dosage depend on the treatment areas and your individual muscle activity. The goal is to relax the muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles while maintaining natural movement and facial expression.

Post-Procedure Care

After the injections are complete, your provider may gently cleanse the area again and review simple aftercare instructions. While there’s no significant downtime, you may be advised to avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas for a few hours. Following these steps helps the Dysport settle properly and ensures the best possible aesthetic outcome.

Aftercare Tips

Following your Dysport injections, simple aftercare steps can help you achieve optimal results while minimizing any temporary side effects. Although there is little to no downtime, being mindful of these tips supports a smooth recovery and long-lasting improvement.

Avoid lying down or bending forward for at least four hours after treatment.
Refrain from rubbing or touching the injection sites to prevent product movement.
You can apply makeup a few hours later if any mild redness or swelling occurs.
Skip strenuous exercise and heat exposure for the rest of the day.
Full results typically appear within one to two weeks as the treated muscles gradually relax.

Am I a Good Candidate for Dysport Treatment?

Dysport is suitable for many patients who want to soften facial lines and achieve a more youthful appearance without surgery. Ideal candidates are adults with moderate to severe expression lines, such as frown lines or crow’s feet, caused by repeated muscle movement. Individuals in good general health and with realistic expectations tend to achieve the best results. During your consultation, your provider will assess your facial anatomy, discuss your goals, and determine whether Dysport is the right option for you.

Achieve Natural-Looking
Results with Dysport

Dysport helps soften fine lines and refresh your overall look without making your expressions appear stiff or frozen. The results depend greatly on precise injection technique, which ensures that treated muscles relax naturally while surrounding areas of the face continue to move freely. In New York City, many people opt for Dysport for its subtle yet noticeable improvement in the early signs of aging, resulting in smoother skin and a more rejuvenated appearance.

Your provider may discuss whether a combination of treatments could enhance your outcome or help address deeper lines that take longer to resolve. Over time, as muscle movement begins to return, results may gradually fade, but repeat treatments can help maintain your refreshed look. Everyone’s response and duration of results may vary compared to others, so your provider will help you create a personalized treatment schedule to support ongoing improvement.

Questions? We've Got Answers

Are Dysport injections safe?

Yes. Dysport injections are considered safe when administered by a qualified provider. The formula contains botulinum toxin type A, the same active ingredient used in other neuromodulators, and has been approved for both cosmetic and therapeutic use. When injected in small, controlled doses, it works precisely on targeted muscles without affecting surrounding tissues.

Is the injection site numbed?

Dysport treatments involve minimal discomfort and typically do not require numbing. Most people describe the sensation as a quick pinch or slight pressure during injection. For those who are more sensitive, applying a topical numbing cream or using ice beforehand can help enhance comfort.

Is Dysport FDA-approved?

Dysport was FDA-approved for use in the USA on April 30, 2009.

What is botulinum toxin type A?

Botulinum toxin type A is a purified protein that has been safely used for decades to treat patients for both cosmetic and medical purposes. When injected into specific muscles, it temporarily reduces their activity, helping smooth wrinkles and fine lines caused by repeated facial movements.

Why is Dysport so effective for smoothing dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and crow's feet?

Dysport is specifically formulated to target moderate to severe frown lines, also known as glabellar lines, by addressing the underlying facial muscle activity that causes them. Its unique diffusion properties allow it to spread evenly with fewer injections, helping to temporarily improve the appearance of wrinkles and create a softer, more relaxed look.

Can Dysport change facial expression?

No. Dysport does not alter your natural expressions when performed correctly. It relaxes only the targeted muscles, allowing the untreated areas to move freely. The result is a smoother, more refreshed look without a frozen or artificial appearance.

Is Dysport used to treat non-cosmetic conditions?

Yes. In addition to its cosmetic uses, Dysport is approved to help relieve certain medical conditions, such as neck pain related to cervical dystonia, a condition that causes involuntary muscle contractions.

What are the risks/side effects?

Dysport is generally well tolerated, and most patients experience only mild, temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, or minor bruising at the injection site. These effects typically resolve within a few days. Serious complications are rare when an experienced injector performs the treatment.

Is the effectiveness of Dysport supported by clinical studies?

Yes. Dysport has undergone extensive testing and is supported by numerous clinical studies that demonstrate proven results for reducing facial wrinkles and treating medical conditions. Its long-standing safety record and effectiveness make it a trusted choice for both patients and providers.
