Is It True That Dysport is a Lighter Toxin Compared to Botox? If so, what are the advantages of this? In what circumstances do you prefer Dysport to Botox?

A: No, Dysport is not a "lighter toxin" compared to Botox. They are cousins.

Dysport and Botox are brand names that represent different version of the same basic underlying toxin molecule. This protein attaches to the junction between nerve and muscle and blocks muscle activation, leading to weakened muscles. Some people do respond better to one or the other, and some respond well to both. Some people don't respond so well to either. If you like the one you've tried, there is no real reason to try the other, but if the one you've used did not give an ideal result (wore off quickly, etc), it is ok to try the other. Make sure you are seeing a GOOD, well-qualified injector who knows how to use both well, so you can be sure that your results are because of the substance used properly, and not questionable because of the injector.

How Widespread is Bruising After a Dysport Injection? Does it just bruise around the injection site, like an IV, or will it be more significant? 　

A: Bruising following treatment of wrinkles with Dysport is actually quite uncommon, and

most patients can attain the result they are looking for without significant or long term bruising. We prefer to use a tiny insulin needle syringe for injections, and have our patients apply ice immediately after the injection. With this combined approach, we rarely see bruising, and if there is any bruising it quickly dissipates.

50% of Scarsdale reviewers said Dysport was worth it

	“Dysport is Excellent - Mount Kisco, NY” Kicks in faster and has a more smoothing effect than Botox. I also think it lasts a little longer although no toxin lasts all that long on me. This is forever for the upper third of the face. I think Botox works better for me when I use it in my mentalis and DAOs. more
	“Dysport - Immediate Results - New...” I have very strong furrow muscles on my forehead and I used to receive Botox to alleviate them. When Dysport came out, my Dr. reccommended that I try it as Dysport dispenses out over a greater area than Botox and since I have very strong furrow muscles, I should see more immediate results. Well, she was right and I really LOVE Dysport. It also lasts longer than Botox, I would say by 3 weeks.... more
	“Never again - dys-aster! - Westwood, NJ” I had dysport two weeks ago in the forehead and crows feet. I have had botox 3x in the past with great results but the doctor only did my forehead and outer corners of my eyes. I went to a new doctor and he injected below my eye directly into the crows feet wrinkle where it puckers when you smile. I thought this was weird but it happened so fast. I also had severe bruising in both corners of... more
	“Dysport and Botox Together - Tight Head” Almost 2 weeks ago I had dysport for the first time in my forehead and botox in my upper forehard and around my eyes.The doctor did not tell me that they are usually not combined. I had a bad reaction when she injected the dysport with pain and swelling so I asked her to switch. Since then, my eyelids are swollen and my whole scalp is tight and tingly. I have chest tightness too and went to... more
	“Dysport Experience Was Negative -...” I've used Botox six times and recently went to a different doctor due to a relocation. The doctor pushed Dysport. Unfortunately, I experienced slight swelling, two bruises and what they call "spreading."This procedure was $50 more and my experience was negative. I had excellent experiences and results with Botox. more
	“Loved Dysport - Much Better Than...” Had Dysport this time over Botox. I had started experiencing less & less effectiveness with Botox. I feel this smoothed my glabellar more than the botox did.I'll do it again...definitely. more
