Dysport®

Dysport®

Smooth Expression Lines. Refine Movement. Reveal Your Natural Look.

Dysport is an FDA-approved neuromodulator used to treat dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive muscle movement—most notably in the frown lines (glabella), forehead, crow’s feet, and lower face. Manufactured by Galderma, Dysport is one of the top three neuromodulators in both the U.S. and Europe, known for its soft, natural appearance, fast onset, and impressive spreadability—making it a favorite for both first-time and long-term injectable patients.

At Spectrum Skin Clinic, Dysport is used with precision and purpose, tailored to your unique facial anatomy and expression patterns, and selected based on individual aesthetic goals or toxin rotation plans.

Why Choose Dysport? A Molecular Advantage

Dysport contains a smaller molecular weight protein complex compared to Botox and Daxxify. This structural difference allows Dysport to diffuse more broadly across the muscle plane, meaning it can cover more surface area with fewer injection points—ideal for larger zones like the forehead, crow’s feet, or masseters.

Compared to:

  • Botox: Larger molecular complex, more localized effect
  • Xeomin: Pure neurotoxin without accessory proteins, tighter diffusion
  • Daxxify: Peptide-enhanced formulation, longer lasting but more expensive

Dysport’s molecular characteristics lead to softer, more blended results—which many patients prefer when treating highly expressive areas like the brow or around the eyes.

Unit Conversion: Dysport vs. Botox

Because Dysport is dosed differently than Botox, it’s important to understand unit equivalency:

  • 1 unit of Botox ≈ 2.5–3 units of Dysport

This does not mean Dysport is weaker—just that it’s measured differently. Our providers at Spectrum Skin Clinic are trained to convert dosing accurately for consistent, clinically proven outcomes.

FDA Approval and Off-Label Use

On-label, Dysport is FDA-approved to treat glabellar lines (the “11s” between the eyebrows). However, it is widely and safely used off-label for a variety of cosmetic and therapeutic indications:

Common treatment zones include:

  • Forehead lines
  • Crow’s feet
  • Bunny lines (nose scrunch lines)
  • Lip flip or perioral lines
  • Downturned mouth corners
  • Chin dimpling
  • Platysmal (neck) bands
  • Masseter hypertrophy (jaw slimming)
  • Lower face lift and DAO relaxation

How Long Does Dysport Last Compared to Other Brands?

Dysport offers an onset time of 2–3 days, which is often faster than Botox or Xeomin. Full results are typically seen within 7 days, with longevity lasting:

  • 3.5 to 5 months for most patients
  • Longer in areas of low movement, such as masseter or platysmal bands
  • May outlast Botox or Xeomin in select patients with optimal metabolism and injection technique

What to Expect During Treatment

Treatments typically take 15–20 minutes, with minimal discomfort and no required downtime. Results begin to appear as early as 48 hours post-injection.


You’ll be able to return to work or social plans the same day. We advise avoiding heat, exercise, and facial massage for 4–6 hours following your appointment.
