What is Dysport?
Dysport is a neurotoxin, a type of injectable treatment that contains the botulinum toxin. It’s a neuromodulator, meaning it works by blocking the nerve signals to certain muscles, reducing their activity and consequently softening the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and creases.
Perfect for those wanting to diminish the signs of aging, Dysport is less invasive than plastic surgery and offers a quick and straightforward way to a more youthful appearance.
Benefits of Dysport
- Quick treatment time, usually around 10-20 minutes
- Minimal downtime, allowing you to return to regular activities quickly
- Effective for reducing frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines
- Produces natural-looking results
- Longer-lasting compared to some other treatments
What Can Dysport Treat?
Dysport is versatile and can address a variety of facial concerns. Primarily, it is used to treat:
- Frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines)
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes

Advanced Cosmetic Surgery Reviews
Ashley is amazing, Advanced Cosmetic Surgery is amazing! Everyone is always polite and very informative. ♥️
Ashley is the best! She is very professional, knowledgeable and kind. The staff is very helpful.
Dr. McFadden is absolutely outstanding! Over the past 10 years, he has performed numerous cosmetic procedures on me, and he has never failed to impress. Previously, I had a tummy tuck with muscle repair done by another surgeon at a different practice, but I was dissatisfied with the results, even after a revision. In November, I chose to have the same procedure performed by Dr. McFadden, and the results have been nothing short of remarkable! The photo to the left shows my abdomen one year after the initial tummy tuck, during which I experienced distension and hardness from day one post-op, with no changes over time. I was continually told by the first surgeon that it was merely swelling and fascia issues. The photo to the right, taken just 10 weeks after my tummy tuck with Dr. McFadden, highlights a significant improvement. As you can see, I am already quite flat despite some lingering swelling. I am eagerly anticipating what my final results will look like in a year! Dr. McFadden has truly become my hero through this procedure. I cannot recommend him highly enough for exceptional results. After all, who undergoes a tummy tuck without the goal of achieving a flat abdomen? That’s the entire purpose!
Treated respectfully, met with a knowledgeable employee who explained in educated detail regarding the procedure.
I truly adore & love seeing Rachel White. She has done both Botox and filler on me and is a master of her craft and true artist. She always takes her time, is patient, and warm. I highly highly recommend seeing her

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Dysport have any side effects?
While Dysport is generally considered safe, some individuals may experience temporary side effects. These could include mild pain at the injection site, redness, swelling, or bruising. It’s essential to discuss any concerns with your practitioner during your consultation.
What’s the difference between Dysport and Botox?
Dysport and Botox both contain botulinum toxin and serve to relax muscles that cause wrinkles, but there are some subtle differences. Dysport tends to have a quicker onset of action and may spread to a broader area after injection, which can be advantageous depending on the area being treated.
How long does Dysport last?
The effects of Dysport can last up to four months, although this varies from person to person. It’s worth noting that over time and with regular treatments, you may find that you’re able to extend the period between sessions as the results can become more long-lasting.
Is Dysport safe for all skin types?
Dysport is generally safe for most skin types. However, it’s essential to have a thorough consultation with a qualified practitioner to discuss your medical history and any skin conditions that could affect your treatment outcomes.
Can Dysport be used in conjunction with other treatments?
Yes, many people choose to combine Dysport with other non-invasive treatments such as dermal fillers for a more comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation. Consult your practitioner to develop a customized treatment plan that’s right for you.
What should I avoid doing after a Dysport treatment?
After receiving Dysport injections, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sun or heat exposure, and consuming large amounts of alcohol for at least 24 hours. These activities can exacerbate side effects or decrease the effectiveness of the treatment. Always consult with your practitioner for personalized aftercare instructions.
