How Many Units of Dysport is Normal for Horizontal Forehead Lines?

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®.  A skilled provider can determine the amount of units needed to optimally treat forehead lines or frown lines.#Dysportunits    #Dysporttreatsforehead   #DysportvsBotox

Like
the more well known Botox® brand,Dysport® is an injectable used to temporarily
improve the look of frown lines without changing the look of your whole face.
The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show
facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas. Over time, the
use of muscles above and between the eyebrows
cause wrinkles. Injecting Dysport® into these areas, blocks the
signal from the nerve to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. The
result is temporary softening or elimination of visible wrinkles/lines.A skilled provider will help decide how many units are needed for the forehead line corrections.#Dysporttreatsforeheads   #Dysportforeheadlines    #Dysporttreatments

The dose that is appropriate is tailored to the individual patient, but a common dose is ~50 units.  For actors and younger patients that want to maintain their full range of facial expressions while still reducing and softening their lines, I use 20 units.  For patients with large foreheads and extensive forehead lines I may use as many as 60 units.  One thing to keep in mind is that in general, a higher dose will last longer than a lower dose injected with the same pattern.
