At CapMed Spa, we understand the importance of maintaining a youthful appearance. One of the most popular treatments we offer is Dysport injections. Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable that is used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face. Here you will explore the benefits of Dysport and why it is an excellent choice for anyone looking to achieve a more youthful appearance.
What is Dysport?
Dysport is a cosmetic injectable that contains botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that paralyzes muscles. The toxin is produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which is found in soil, dust, and improperly canned foods. While botulinum toxin can be dangerous in high doses, it is safe and effective when used in small amounts for cosmetic purposes.

What is Dysport?
Dysport is a neurotoxin that is used to temporarily relax facial muscles that cause wrinkles. It is made from the same type of bacteria that causes botulism, but in a purified form that is safe for cosmetic use. Dysport is injected directly into the muscle that is causing the wrinkle, and within a few days, the muscle becomes relaxed, resulting in smoother skin.
How is Dysport different from Botox?
Dysport and Botox are both injectable neurotoxins that are used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, Dysport has a few key differences that make it an excellent choice for many patients. First, Dysport tends to spread out more than Botox, which means that fewer injections are needed to cover a larger area. This can result in a more natural-looking appearance. Additionally, Dysport tends to take effect more quickly than Botox, with results visible within a few days rather than a week or more.
What areas can be treated with Dysport?
Dysport is most commonly used to treat wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around the eyes (crow’s feet). However, it can also be used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the nose and around the mouth.
How long does Dysport last?
The effects of Dysport typically last between three and four months. After this time, the muscle will gradually regain its strength, and the wrinkles will begin to reappear. However, many patients find that the results of their Dysport injections last longer with each subsequent treatment.
Is Dysport safe?
Dysport is an FDA-approved injectable that has been used for cosmetic purposes for many years. When administered by a trained professional, the risk of side effects is low. However, as with any injectable, there is a small risk of bruising, swelling, or infection at the injection site. These side effects are typically mild and resolve on their own within a few days.
