I was told that I need double 50 units of Dysport to get the same effect of 25 units of Botox. Is this true or is the place I called trying to get me pay more since Dysport is 3.99 a unit and Botox is 9.50 a unit?

Answer: Dysport vs Botox dosing The common conversions used by physicians between Dysport and Botox is 2.5 units of Dysport for every Botox unit, or 3 units of Dysport for every one unit of Botox.another way to say this is that ~50 units of Dysport is needed to treat the frown lines to get a similar effect as 20 units of Botox. Based on this, I would say they may even be under treating you.

Answer: Amount of Dysport vs Botox Dysport comes in 300 unit vials and Botox comes in 100 unit vials. The conversion of the units is what may make it seem like you need more Dysport, but it should not really make a big difference in pricing. An experienced injector will know exactly how much Dyport/Botox to use in each area so that you do not have to worry about the conversion of units between the 2 products.
