About Dysport Injections

Top plastic surgeons administer a number of anti-aging injectables, including Dysport — a new FDA-approved alternative to Botox. Dysport is a wrinkle relaxer that is most effective when used to treat forehead wrinkles and frown lines. The main ingredient of Dysport is a small amount of a botulinum toxin Type A. Once injected, the toxin temporarily paralyzes facial muscles and wrinkles begin to fade.

It is unclear how Dysport and Botox differ. Although, recent research suggests that Dysport may act quicker and last longer than Botox. However, Dysport may be more likely to activate the body's antibodies that work to fight off the neurotoxin and possible prevent it from actually working. Most patients who are interested in anti-aging treatments first visit a top board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss the benefits of each injection, how they differ and decide which product will most effectively address their unique aesthetic concerns.

Dysport is administered via an injection at one or more facial sites identified by a cosmetic specialist prior to treatment. According to clinical studies, Dysport reduces more than 90 percent of facial lines and wrinkles, and its aesthetically pleasing effects last anywhere from six to 13 months. Dysport results first appear after a few days following treatment and in some cases within the first 24 hours.

Dysport is considered to be a safe cosmetic treatment; however its main ingredient may be life threatening in rare cases. Dysport common side effects include nose and throat irritations, headaches, and skin reactions at the injection site.

Dysport is more likely to be safe and effective when administered by a trained medical professional who specializes in performing a wide range of cosmetic procedures. In fact, plastic surgeons who are board certified have helped a number of patients from across the country eliminate obvious signs of aging to create a radiant, beautiful face by utilizing similar anti-aging techniques.

Patients seeking a more permanent solution to facial wrinkles, lines and crow's feet should talk to their cosmetic surgeon about advanced plastic surgery procedures, including face lift, brow lift, eyelid surgery, chin augmentation, rhinoplasty and facial implants.
