DYSPORT
Reduce aging lines with an effective treatment that relaxes muscles and smoothes your wrinkles
Tackle the early signs of aging with Dysport® at Balanced Beauty & Wellness.
The early signs of aging are an annoying part of life that we all experience at some point. Over the course of time, it’ll eventually steal away our youthful good looks and leave us looking much older than we feel. At Balanced Beauty & Wellness, we specialize in fighting back the early signs of aging with wrinkle reduction treatments using Dysport®.
Dysport® is an injectable neurotoxin toxin designed to relax the facial muscles responsible for the formation of wrinkles and fine lines. Dysport® differs from BOTOX® Cosmetic treatments in that it spreads further from the injection site than BOTOX®, making it better suited for treating larger areas.
Dysport injections are a cosmetic treatment that reduces the appearance of wrinkles by relaxing the muscles beneath the skin. A small amount of Dysport is injected directly into the muscle, which causes it to relax and smooth out the skin above it.
How Does Dysport work?
Dysport vs Botox: Are They the Same Thing?
Botox and Dysport are both cosmetic treatments made from botulinum toxin, but they have different uses. Dysport is primarily used for correcting frown lines between the eyebrows, while Botox can be used to treat many different types of wrinkles. Dysport is more diluted than Botox, so more product may be needed depending on the location of the injection.
Dysport® Treatments
Many people choose to combine their Dysport® treatments with dermal fillers such as Restylane® Injectable Gel. Dermal fillers can add volume to smooth folds and restore youthful facial fullness. Others choose skin resurfacing techniques such as Plexr Plus or Plexr shower.
The Benefits of Dysport®
Dysport® and other neurotoxins work by relaxing facial muscles, allowing the skin to lie smooth and wrinkle-free.
Treatment with Dysport® is a very quick, in-office procedure that causes only minimal discomfort (typically compared to an insect bite). Little to no downtime is required, so you can get back to your usual activities immediately.
Results should be visible in 3 to 4 days and will last for up to 6 months. The procedure is easily repeatable, so you can keep your youthful-looking results fresh.

Dysport dosage varies depending on the area being treated. For example, the dose for treating glabellar lines in adults is a total of 50 units given intramuscularly in five equal aliquots of 10 units each. Dysport is also used to treat spasticity, and the dosing for this depends on the specific muscles being treated. The number of units per injection site is calculated by dividing the number of units per vial by the dilution in mL.
