Dysportâ„¢
Prescription Dysportâ„¢ (abobotulinumtoxinA) from Galderma is an injection used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines).
Dysportâ„¢ is a purified formulation that has been shown to deliver temporary improvements in moderate to severe frown lines, even with repeat treatments. So, the effect of repeat treatment with Dysport may be comparable to your first use.
How It Works
Over time, the muscles above and between the eyebrows repeatedly contract and tighten, causing wrinkles. With just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and above the eyebrows, Dysport stops the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines.
What to Expect
The untreated facial muscles still contract normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.
Results
Long-lasting, natural-looking results last up to 4 months.
Is It Safe?
You should not be treated with Dysportâ„¢ more frequently than every 90 days.
The most common side effects are nose and throat irritation, headache, injection site pain, injection site skin reaction, upper respiratory tract infection, eyelid swelling, eyelid drooping, sinus inflammation, and nausea.
