Dysport vs Botox...What's the difference and which one is best for me?

Updated: Jun 19, 2020

Botox and Dysport; the two wonderful injectables that save our faces from the dreaded wrinkles of time.

At Modern Vitality Medical Spa, we offer both injectables, but...

"What's the difference between the two?"


FAST FACTS:
  • Both Botox and Dysport are used to treat and prevent fine lines and wrinkles in the face.

  • Both injectables require little to no down time, are fairly painless, and you can be in and out of the office within a few minutes!

  • Both ~procedures~ reduce the appearance of wrinkles by relaxing the muscles underneath the skin, which then makes the skin appear smoother and more youthful.

Botox

In the world of wrinkles, Botox is probably the treatment that you are most familiar with. For the last 30 years, Botox has been effectively attacking lines and wrinkles found on the forehead, crow's feet and the glabellar lines (between the eyes). Botox is given through several injections over the needed areas, and treatment usually varies between 12 and 64 units. After treatment, results will begin to show after a few days, but you may not be able to see the final results until about 2 weeks. When it comes to fighting wrinkles, Botox is super reliable- making it the number one nonsurgical cosmetic "procedure" in the United States!


Dysport

Similar to Botox, Dysport is also a Botulinum that treats wrinkles and fine lines in the face, and the number of units used is typically higher than you would receive from Botox. Dysport is more commonly used only on the glabellar lines of the face, but at Modern Vitality Medical Spa, it can be used to treat the whole face! Dysport can also be an alternative to Botox for candidates who have more moderate to severe lines and wrinkles. After treatment, Dysport results are quicker to appear, and can come as soon as 1-2 days post injection! Have an event coming up in a few days and need a quicker fix?! Thank you Dysport!!


Whether you are trying to prevent OR treat wrinkles, regardless of your gender, skin or age, chances are you are a good candidate for Botox or Dysport.



MOST IMPORTANTLY, our skincare professionals at Modern Vitality Medical Spa can help you make the best decision for you and your skin goals. If you are interested in learning more about Dysport or Botox, call or text us at 234-208-6867.
