Dysport is the newest injectable in the U.S. market. It treats deep lines and wrinkles by immobilizing muscles, similar to Botox. Developed in the United Kingdom in the early '90s, Dysport has been used overseas for many years. Dysport was approved by the Federal Drug Administration for the treatment of head-and-neck muscle spasms and deep lines between the eyebrows.

Dysport is made from the same botulinum toxin Type A as Botox and is injected in the same way as Botox. Both work by temporarily immobilizing muscles, which reduces lines and furrows.
Dysport is injected around expression lines -- the creases caused by frowning, scowling, smiling or looking surprised -- to diminish their appearance or keep them from forming.
The three most common areas for Dysport injections are between the eyebrows, the forehead and next to the eyes, where "crow's feet" form. Dysport can improve your appearance and prevent the formation of deep expression lines that make you look older. It will not help fine lines or wrinkles that are not due to facial expressions.
Dysport has fewer proteins surrounding the toxin and so should stimulate a weaker immune response to break down the toxin. Dysport vs Botox, this may make it a good choice for Botox patients who find Botox no longer works because their body has developed antibodies.

There are some claims that Dysport works faster and lasts longer but doctors who work with injectables have different opinions on whether Dysport is really more effective. Dysport costs are said to be slightly cheaper than Botox. Just having a competitor to Botox may bring prices down. You can get Dysport injections at both medical spas and dermatologist's offices.

  • What's the difference between Dysport and Botox??

  • @kayslove1 Hello,

    They are essentially the same formula. I like Dysport a little better. It lasts slightly longer and has a faster onset. Thank you for the message.

  • I just had it (Dysport) done for the first time, and it didn't hurt AT ALL. I had it done for the frown lines between my eyebrows....I can't say what it feels like to get the injections done for crow's feet.

  • oooouuuuccchhhh....!!! that looks so painful. I always check these kind of videos everytime I think about having Botox or Dysport done,and everytime I see them I decide not to do it. Which,of course,upsets me,lol,cuz that's not why I come here-to change my mind. Oh boy! That's not good,hehe :-P A lot to think about. Again ;)
