Botox. You've heard the word, and very likely you or someone you know has had this treatment done.So what is Dysport? If you haven't heard of Dysport yet the word will probably become more and more familiar to you!
Dysport Explained:
Prescription Dysport is an injection used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults less than 65 years of age.
How does Dysport work? With just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and above the eyebrows, Dysport stops the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines.

The untreated facial muscles still contract normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.
You should not be treated with Dysport more frequently than every 90 days.
Dysport is certainly being compared to Botox though the measurements and pricing differ. It is always advised to speak with your healthcare professional about what is best for you and all potential risks involved.
Does this mean we are saying, "Bye Bye, Botox?" Not likely. But it does mean that we are making room for Dysport...
