I've heard that supposedly Dysport (Reloxin) is better than Botox because the Dysport lasts longer. Has anyone else heard this? Does the Dysport being used outside the U.S. right now usually last longer than Botox? Thx

Answer: Does Dysport last longer than Botox? Some patients do report that Dysport seems to last longer for them than Botox does, but this is not something that I readily observe clinically. In general, it seems to last about the same amount of time as Botox (3-4 months for most patients). All the best,

Answer: The Battle of Relaxers Botox is the most requested since it's the most familiar. Dysport was thought to possibly last longer when it first launched, but after years of use, we've discovered that there's not really a head to head study that bears that out. Often it comes to personal preference.We've learned that certain facial areas work better with one product than the other. Dysport can be more advantageous when a more diffuse result if desired such a fine lines. But in the end it is more often injector skill that determines the results. In my practice, we'll often use some of both to get the best outcome.

Answer: Advantages of Dysport over Botox Both Botox and Dysport are made with botulinum toxin type A proteins and work in a similar fashion. The Dysport® protein is slightly smaller allowing it to work more quickly; 2-3 days after treatment. For people wanting to look good for an event, trip, etc. with short notice, Dysport® might be a better option since results can be seen faster than with Botox®. Both seem to last as long after treatments.#DysportvsBotox #Dysportlastslong #DysportandBotox
