What is Dysport?
Dysport is a controlled medication that’s prepared from botulinum toxin—which has been utilized for medicinal purposes for decades, primarily for treating muscle pain and spasms. Whenever it is injected into the uncomfortable or damaged muscles, this solution can help prevent excessive/unconscious movements in the area that might result in further discomfort and delay recovery, such as in the case of TMJ disorder. Dysport can also be used cosmetically, as it can keep the muscles in the face from creating wrinkles and fine lines. The results will usually show between five to ten days, and you’ll be able to enjoy them for three to six months before needing another injection.

Dysport FAQs
Is Dysport Safe?
Dysport is made from a purified form of the botulinum toxin. It is completely safe for most patients with good health. Your cosmetic dentist will learn more about your health history and any medications you are taking to ensure there are no risk factors for complications. Only a handful of adverse reactions have been reported in decades. Most complications were not caused by the injection itself, but instead, underlying health issues. At most, you may experience temporary pain, redness, or swelling at the injection sites. Dysport may not be suitable for some patients with underlying skin conditions or health issues, including pregnancy.
Are Dysport Results Permanent?
You can enjoy long-lasting results with Dysport, but your results will not be permanent without regular injections. You can enjoy continual improvement with injections every few months. If you stop receiving Dysport, the appearance of your wrinkles will return; however, they will not be worse than they were before beginning your cosmetic injections.
Does Dysport Injections Hurt?
Dysport only causes slight discomfort when the needle is injected into your skin. Your cosmetic dentist can also use a topical numbing medication to reduce discomfort. It is normal to experience slight bruising, redness, and tenderness at the injection sites for a couple of days.
How Long Does Dysport Last?
Dysport can last for up to 5 months, but many factors will affect the duration of your results. Your body will naturally eliminate the serum over time. Your cosmetic dentist will create a regular injection plan to help you maintain your results.
How Long Does It Take Dysport to Work?
You may see slight changes in as few as 24 hours, but you will see an improvement in moderate-to-severe frown lines within a couple of days. You can see a continual improvement for up to a few weeks.
