Frequency and Duration of Dysport
Like Botox Cosmetic, Dysport typically lasts between 3-4 months, depending on the person and the amount of Dysport injected. It is safe to schedule subsequent Dysport injections back to back in other areas on the face, such as glabellar lines, crowsfeet, lines running alongside of nose, and wrinkles above the lip. If your doctor went too conservative on your forehead and you do not see a result within 2 weeks, I recommend scheduling a follow up appointment...

Effects of Dysport on Wrinkles
Thank you for your question. Dysport can last an average of 3-4 months depending on an individual's metabolism. You may return for another injection before it has completely metabolized, around 2-3 months. You may have Dysport performed on other areas such as between your brows (glabella), crow's feet, bunny lines, etc. Be certain to be under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with expertise in injectables for the safest and most effective treatments.

Dysport
Both Dysport and Botox last approximately 3-4 months. It is fine to have Dysport back to back once you feel like the effects are wearing off.

How Long Does Dysport Last?
Using 1 injection between and over the eyebrows, Dysport blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines. You should not be treated with Dysport more frequently than every 90 days.

How Long Dysport lasts for wrinkles on the forehead.
Dysport lasts approximately as long as Botox which is about 3-4 months. Other sources report that Dysport lasts between 4-6 months on average.
It is perfectly acceptable to have Dysport procedures back to back if you do not want to experience an intermittent time interval where the effects have worn off. Some patients prefer to let the Dysport injection completely wear off before receiving their next treatment. However this is a matter of personal choice.

Dysport and Botox: duration of effect
Thanks for the question. There are five areas I commonly treat with Dysport and Botox:
1) horizontal forehead wrinkles
2) vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows
3) crow's feet
4) platysmal bands (neck bands)
5) masseter (bite) muscles: to reduce teeth grinding (bruxism) or shrink the jawline in patients with large, square jaws.
The effects of these neuromodulators usually last between 3 and 4 months though many of my patients have been able to break the habit of...

Dysport effect lasts about the same time as Botox
Since all wrinkle relaxers work the same way (Dysport, Botox, Xeomin) the effect lasts about the same. The reason is that they cause a change in the conection between the nerve ending and the muscle it activates, and it takes the body about 3-4 months to re-establish the connection. It is often a good idea to do all areas at the same time so that there isn't an imbalance as they wear off.

Dysport lasts 3-4 months
Like other neurotoxins (Botox), Dysport lasts about 3-4 months. If you had one area treated (like the glabella) and wanted to have another area treated separately (like the crow's feet), that's totally fine. Many people come in for one main area to be treated and like it so much, they return to treat the rest of the forehead and crow's feet separately. If you're asking if you need to alternate being Dysport and Botox (like receive Dysport, then the next treatment receive...

How Long Does Dysport Last?
Hello. The duration for Dysport is not significantly different than Botox. 3-4 months is normal. In our practice we get slightly longer duration with Dysport because we use a conversion ratio of 3:1, 3 units of Dysport for 1 unit of Botox. This is slightly higher than 2.5 to 1 that would be used if going by the FDA approvals. We can afford to do this because Dysport is cheaper for practitioners and we pass this saving onto our patients.
