Dysport may be a more cost effective option to botox

Scott Trimas, MD answers: What are the best Botox alternatives?

Not so sure I want to try Botox.  Are there good alternatives that will help me get rid of wrinkles on my forehead the same way Botox does?

Dysport may be a more cost effective option to botox. It is a type of botulinum toxin that has been recently approved for use in the glabellar region in the United States. It has been used in Europe with success and minimal side effects similar to Botox. It might be a less expensive alternative for you and your physician might offer some discounts to use this product in lieu of traditional Botox.
