Dysport

Dysport® is a treatment to temporarily improve the appearance of both moderate to severe frown lines between the brows, horizontal forehead lines and crows-feet lines in adults.

Rejuvenate Your Expression with Dysport®


Dysport® is an FDA-approved solution specifically formulated to smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal forehead lines, and crow’s-feet in adults. Derived from natural sources, Dysport® contains minute, highly-purified quantities of botulinum toxin protein, which are meticulously refined from the bacterium, Clostridium Botulinum.

Dysport® not only shares the same mechanism of action as Botox but also boasts a distinct molecular weight that promotes a quicker onset and durability of 3-4 months. It is FDA-approved for a range of applications, including the treatment of migraines, excessive sweating, uncontrollable blinking, TMJ disorders, and more. Its uses extend to improving facial aesthetics such as wrinkles, forehead lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, crow’s feet, downturned mouths, and neck bands.

How Dysport® works


Dysport® acts by relaxing targeted muscles, thereby erasing wrinkles and preventing the formation of new ones. It smooths out static wrinkles, which are visible even when the face is at rest, and may eliminate them entirely with repeated treatments. Dynamic wrinkles, which appear during muscle contractions, are significantly reduced or softened. The optimal outcome is a natural, refreshed appearance, further enhanced by Dysport®’s ability to minimize pore size, giving your skin a radiant glow.

The effects of Dysport® begin to manifest 72 hours post-injection, with full results apparent within two weeks. The aesthetic enhancements last approximately 3-4 months, offering you a sustained, youthful visage.

  • Crow’s Feet: Relax lines at the outer corners of the eyes for a more radiant gaze.
  • Bunny Lines: Gently reduce wrinkles on the sides of the nose.
  • Top Lip Lines: Erase fine lines above the upper lip for a smoother contour.

Each treatment plan is carefully tailored to meet your individual goals, ensuring natural, balanced results.

Tailored Applications of Dysport®


  • Brow Lift: Often administered to the ’11’s’—frown lines between the brows—Dysport® helps soften these lines and elegantly contour the eyebrows.
  • Horizontal Forehead Lines: Dysport® is used to achieve a smoother forehead while ensuring that details like brow position and symmetry are meticulously maintained. Follow-up appointments are recommended two weeks post-treatment for any necessary adjustments.
  • Crow’s Feet: These lines, created by the contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle, are softened through precise injections along the sides of the eyes.
  • Nefertiti Neck Lift: Inspired by the famously elegant Egyptian queen, this treatment relaxes the platysmal muscle in the neck, enhancing the jawline, smoothing the neck, and lifting the corners of the mouth to convey a happier demeanor.
