Dysport, fast onset, smooth diffusion.

Dysport in Raleigh NC is the Galderma neurotoxin, FDA-approved since 2009, best known for its faster onset compared to Botox. Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA) begins working in 2 to 3 days and spreads slightly more across treated areas, making it particularly useful for the forehead where smooth diffusion is desired.

What this is

How Dysport differs from Botox and Daxxify

All three treat the same dynamic wrinkles. The differences are subtle but useful in clinic.

Onset: Dysport 2 to 3 days. Botox 4 to 7 days. Daxxify 7 to 14 days. Duration: Dysport 3 to 4 months. Botox 3 to 4 months. Daxxify 6+ months. Spread: Dysport diffuses slightly more, useful for broader areas like the forehead. Botox is more localized, better for precise areas. Daxxify behaves like Botox.

Unit conversion: Dysport and Botox aren't 1 to 1. Roughly 2.5 Dysport units equal 1 Botox unit. Pricing reflects this, so quotes look different even when the clinical effect is similar.

At La Miel

Where Dysport fits at La Miel

Adriana selects Dysport when faster onset or smoother forehead diffusion is the goal.

  • Forehead lines

    Where Dysport often shines. Slightly broader spread produces smoother forehead softening with fewer injection points.

    Standard treatment area. Dysport works the same as Botox here with the faster onset benefit.

    Suited for: Patients with an event in under a week who want results fast.

  • Crow's feet

    Localized spread works for the orbicularis. Dosing converts cleanly from Botox.

    Suited for: Patients who prefer the Galderma product line.

  • Switching from Botox

    Easy transition. Your injector accounts for the 2.5 to 1 unit conversion so dosing stays appropriate.

Common questions

Common questions about Dysport

  • Dysport works the same way as Botox but with slightly faster onset at 2 to 3 days and slightly broader diffusion, useful for areas like the forehead. Dysport and Botox both relax targeted facial muscles, but Dysport has slightly faster onset (2 to 3 days vs. 4 to 7) and diffuses slightly more, which can be advantageous for broader areas like the forehead. Duration is similar (3 to 4 months). Unit dosing is different (approximately 2.5 Dysport units equal 1 Botox unit), which is why pricing structures look different but effective cost is similar.
