/ ABOUT DYSPORT®

HOW IS DYSPORT® DIFFERENT FROM BOTOX®?

DYSPORT® and BOTOX® are both Botulinum Toxin Type-A, but are made by different companies. BOTOX® has been available longer, but DYSPORT® is also now FDA approved and has been found to be as safe and effective as BOTOX®.

Although DYSPORT®, like BOTOX®, is made from Botulinum Toxin Type-A, they differ by the number of proteins that surround the active molecules. Due to DYSPORT® having less protein than BOTOX® means that this injectable spreads over a wide range. This allows for quicker absorption and less needle sticks.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH DYSPORT®?

DYSPORT® is approved to treat the “elevens”, or frown lines between the eyebrows. Also called glabellar lines, the muscles between the eyebrows can be relaxed using DYSPORT® in order to decrease the appearance of lines and creases between the eyebrows.

/ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT DYSPORT®

HOW DOES DYSPORT® WORK?

1 injection. 5 points.

DYSPORT® temporarily treats moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows by reducing specific muscle activity. Wrinkles are caused by repeated movements and muscle contractions. 1 injection into each of the 5 points between and above the eyebrows temporarily prevents muscle contractions that cause frown lines.

DYSPORT® is an injectable-neuromodulator, which means it works by temporarily blocking the nerve impulses of the target muscle.

HOW SOON WILL I SEE RESULTS?
Results typically appear 2-3 days after treatment.
HOW LONG DO RESULTS LAST?
Results may last up to 5 months.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS/SIDE EFFECTS?
In some cases, the effects of DYSPORT® and all Botulinum Toxin products may affect areas not related to the injection site. These effects can cause symptoms of a serious condition called botulism. Symptoms of botulism can occur hours to weeks after injection and may include swallowing and breathing problems, muscle weakness all over the body, blurry or double vision and drooping eyelids, loss of voice or hoarseness, difficulty speaking, and incontinence.
IS DYSPORT® USED TO TREAT NON-COSMETIC CONDITIONS?
Yes, DYSPORT® is used to help treat Upper Limb Spasticity (ULS), which is a condition that affects the way you move your arms. It is also used to treat Lower Limb Spasticity (LLS), which is a condition that affects the way you move your legs. With these conditions, the muscles in the arms or legs become stiff and may twitch or even move in an uncontrolled manner.

DYSPORT® is also used to treat Cervical Dystonia (CD) also known as spasmodic torticollis. This condition is a rare neurological disorder in which the muscles in the neck contract and spasm involuntarily causing abnormal movements to the neck and head.

If you’re under 65 and seeking treatment to temporarily improve the look of wrinkles between the eyebrows, ask your specialist if DYSPORT®® is right for you.
