BothBotox and Dysport are made with botulinum toxin type A proteins and work in asimilar fashion. The Dysport® protein is slightly smaller allowing it to workmore quickly; 2-3 days after treatment. For people wanting to look good for anevent, trip, etc. with short notice, Dysport® might be a better option sinceresults 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
Likethe more well known Botox® brand,Dysport® is an injectable used to temporarilyimprove the look of frown lines without changing the look of your whole face.The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely showfacial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas. Over time, theuse of muscles above and between the eyebrowscause wrinkles. Injecting Dysport® into these areas, blocks thesignal from the nerve to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. Theresult 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.
Hi Debra. We usually use 30-60 units depending on how deep the lines are and how many of them there are. 45 is a good average. Good luck.
In general, 30-50 units of Dysport is adequate to improve the appearance of lines present on the forehead. However, this may vary depending on the patient. The amount of Dysport necessary to get the desired effect may depend on: 1) Severity of the lines that require correction 2) Time since previous treatment, if applicable 3) Any other circumstances unique to the patient I would recommend a consultation with an experienced physician, as he/she may be able to best assess your needs. Thanks and good luck!
