Botox or Dysport

Khaled El-Hoshy, MD answers: Which takes effect faster, Botox or Dysport?

I have an appointment with my doctor for Botox/Dysport on Friday at 10a.m. I have two occasions: one on Sunday, the other on Tuesday. Which between these two treatments takes effect faster?

Dysport is thought to start working faster. However, the speed of onset of effect varies greatly among individuals. The duration of the effect is thought to be longer for Botox.
