Both the Botox and Dysport Botulinum toxin are the same, so the effects of both treatments are similar.

According to some Dysport reviews from both patients and medical professionals, it works faster and lasts longer. Its effects typically take effect in 2-5 days while those of Botox usually take 4-7 days. Regarding the duration of results, some patients have reported results lasting over 12 months, although the normal time is 3-4 months, slightly longer than the 3-month average for Botox. However, keep in mind that these results are mixed and inconsistent.

A very important distinction is the amount of targeted area that each treatment covers. Once injected, Dysport seems to spread over a slightly larger area of the face – it’s reported that Dysport spreads three centimeters out from the injection site whereas Botox spreads only about one centimeter.

A treatment takes approximately 15-30 minutes.

No! The Botox injection is virtually painless and doesn’t require anesthesia. If you prefer, you can request a numbing cream applied to the area prior to application.

The full effect won’t be noticed for several days, but results will appear within a week.

For frown lines between the eyebrows, the vertical lines that resemble an “11,” Botox can be an excellent treatment. An area where it is particularly effective is on glabellar lines, the forehead lines caused by squinting, stress, or thinking hard about something.

Another area where BOTOX injections work quite well is the area around the corners of the eyes, commonly called crow’s feet.
