What is Average Price for Dysport in the Midwest? I've Found Everything from $5.50/u to $11/u at Facilities Only Miles Apart.

I realize that price point is something totally left to the provider's discretion but is sort of looks like one place is price gouging.

Average price for Dysport

The average price for Dysport, yes, will depend on the injector, including if this is a physician, or someone else (nurse, PA, etc). I charge $285 for 75units of Dysport, and $550 for 150units. I have never heard of someone charging $11/unit for Dysport, even in LA. I have heard of people charging (and this is within the normal range) $11/unit for Botox. But Dysport and Botox are not 1:1 with their unit dosing. Be sure you're comparing apples to apples. My guess is that someone gave you a... more
