What Is Dysport?

Dysport is a prescription injectable treatment made from botulinum toxin type A, specifically formulated to target dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movements. With its unique formulation, Dysport diffuses more widely than other neurotoxins, making it particularly effective for treating larger areas like forehead lines. This injectable temporarily reduces muscle activity in the treated area, softening lines while allowing for natural movement and expressions.

Benefits of Dysport

  • Quick treatment sessions typically completed in under 20 minutes
  • Fast-acting formula with results visible in as few as two to three days
  • Smooths moderate to severe expression lines and wrinkles
  • Natural-looking results that don’t restrict normal facial expressions
  • FDA-approved treatment with an established safety profile
  • Complementary to other aesthetic treatments for comprehensive rejuvenation

How Does Dysport Work?

When strategically injected into specific facial muscles, Dysport blocks signals sent from the nerves to the muscles, preventing them from contracting and wrinkling the skin. The formula’s unique spreading properties allow it to diffuse evenly across treatment areas, creating a smooth, natural appearance. This controlled muscle relaxation softens existing wrinkles and prevents new ones from developing, all while maintaining your ability to show emotion. Each treatment provides results that typically last three to four months before a touch-up is needed.

Dysport Treatment Areas

  • Glabellar lines (frown lines between eyebrows)
  • Horizontal forehead lines
  • Crow’s feet around the eyes
  • Eyebrow lifting
  • Bunny lines on the nose
  • Dimpled chin
  • Neck bands
  • Corners of the mouth
  • Masseter muscles for jaw slimming

What to Expect During Treatment

Your Dysport experience at Austin Skin & Wellness begins with a friendly consultation to understand your aesthetic goals and design your personalized treatment plan. After cleansing the treatment area, we may apply a topical numbing cream or ice pack for added comfort. Using a very fine needle, our skilled providers will administer Dysport into the targeted muscles. The procedure is quick and comfortable, with each injection feeling like a slight pinch. You’ll be in and out in under 30 minutes, making it easy to fit Dysport into your busy schedule.

Is There Any Downtime or Recovery?

Like other neuromodulators, Dysport involves little to no downtime. Most patients return to their normal activities immediately after treatment, though we recommend avoiding saunas, hot tubs and strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours. You may experience a bit of redness, swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but these effects typically subside within a day or two. To maximize your results, avoid lying down for four hours after treatment and don’t rub or massage the treated areas, as this could cause the product to spread to unintended muscles.
