Dysport®

Dysport in Columbus, OH

The vertical lines between your eyes are caused by muscle contractions. Dysport® contains active ingredients that work on the muscles to soften the creases. Downtown Dermatology offers Dysport® treatments to men and women in the Greater Columbus area.

What is Dysport®?

Dysport® is a non-surgical injectable product that works on the muscles that cause vertical frown lines between the eyes. The active ingredient in Dysport® is botulinum toxin, a substance that temporarily paralyzes the muscles. After the treatment, you are unable to voluntarily or involuntarily use the muscles that cause frown lines.

Dysport® Benefits

Patients who use Dysport® to treat frown lines enjoy the following benefits:

  • No surgery needed
  • Minimally-invasive treatment
  • No downtime
  • Immediate results
  • Frown lines are controlled for three to six months in most patients
  • Product can be used as an alternative to Botox®

Where Dysport® Be Applied?

Dysport® is FDA approved for treating vertical lines between the eyes, known as “frown lines.” The product may also be used to treat forehead lines, crow’s feet and the neck area (off-label treatments).

How is Dysport® Administered?

Dysport® is injected into the muscles with a very tiny needle. You may feel a slight pinch as the needle is inserted into the skin and muscle. Most patients can tolerate the sensation, but we can treat the area with a topical numbing agent if you find the procedure uncomfortable. Dysport® is most effective for treating frown lines when multiple injections are made into the muscles.

Dysport® Procedure Preparation

The procedure for Dysport® is quick and easy. Just set up an appointment and clear about an hour of your day. You can return to your normal activities immediately after the appointment.

Dysport® Procedure Recovery

Some patients experience tenderness, swelling and slight bleeding at the injection sites. The symptoms last only 24 to 48 hours.

How Much Does Dysport® Cost?

Dysport® treatments are considered elective by your medical insurance. As such, you are responsible for the cost. Payment can be made by cash, check, major credit card or CareCredit® financing.
