What Is Dysport®?

Dysport is a neuromodulator, similar to BOTOX®, that temporarily relaxes the facial muscles responsible for dynamic lines. It’s commonly used to treat frown lines, forehead creases, and crow’s feet—those fine lines that develop from years of smiling, laughing, and frowning. With a few small injections, Dysport smooths the skin while keeping your natural facial expressions intact.

What Concerns Can Dysport Treat?

Dysport is highly effective at softening visible lines and rebalancing facial expressions. Common treatment areas include:

  • Glabellar lines (between the brows)
  • Forehead wrinkles
  • Crow’s feet
  • Bunny lines on the nose
  • Brow asymmetry or drooping
  • A gummy smile
  • Smoker’s lines
  • Chin dimples
  • Neck bands
  • Downturned corners of the mouth
  • A prominent or square jawline

Dr. Michael Connor will tailor your treatment to focus on the areas that matter most to you.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Dysport?

During your consultation, Dr. Connor will determine if Dysport is a good fit for you by reviewing your goals, medical history, and facial anatomy. In general, ideal candidates are at least 18 years old, are bothered by expression lines such as frown lines or crow’s feet, and seek a non-surgical option with little to no downtime. 

Patients should not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to any of Dysport’s ingredients. It’s also important that candidates do not have serious neuromuscular or clotting disorders and have realistic expectations for their results.
