Can Dysport be used instead of Botox for platysmal bands?

Yes, you can use either Dysport or Xeomin as alternatives for Botox. Results will resolve in 3-4 months. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

You can use either Botox or Dysport for treatment of platysmal bands. They are essentially the same with the exception of minor differences. True Botox or Dysport resistance is very rare. If your platysmal bands are present at rest (secondary to muscle separation and not overactivity) then neither Botox or Dysport will work. Make sure you are under the care of an experienced injector. Best wishes.
