What is Dysport?
Dysport is a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, the same family of neuromodulator as Botox, used to smooth dynamic wrinkles. It is FDA approved to treat moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, and it is trusted worldwide as a proven, well studied wrinkle relaxer. When injected in small, precise amounts by a physician, Dysport relaxes the targeted muscles so the overlying skin can smooth out, while leaving your natural movement intact.

How is Dysport different from Botox?
Dysport and Botox are close cousins with a few practical differences. Dysport often begins working a bit faster, sometimes within two to three days, and its formulation spreads a little more, which makes it efficient for larger areas such as a broad forehead. Botox is highly precise and is often preferred for small, detailed areas. Importantly, the units are not measured the same way, so Dysport and Botox are not interchangeable unit for unit, and prices cannot be compared per unit. Dr. Banionis chooses the product that best fits your muscles and goals.
What areas does Dysport treat?
Dysport is most known for the upper face and treats many of the same areas as other neuromodulators. Here are the common Dysport treatment areas.
| Treatment area | What Dysport addresses |
|---|---|
| Frown lines (the 11s) | Vertical lines between the eyebrows, its FDA approved use |
| Forehead lines | Horizontal lines across the forehead, where its smooth spread shines |
| Crow's feet | Fine lines that fan from the corners of the eyes |
| Bunny lines | Wrinkles on the sides of the nose when you scrunch |
| Brow lift | A subtle, nonsurgical lift and opening of the eyes |
| Chin | Dimpling or an orange peel texture on the chin |
| Neck bands | Vertical platysmal bands on the neck |
Treatment of the forehead, crow’s feet, and other areas beyond the frown lines is considered off label but is common and well established. Dr. Banionis will confirm the right areas at your consultation.
Is Dysport right for me?
Dysport is a great fit for most healthy adults who want to soften expression lines or slow their formation, especially across broader areas like the forehead, without surgery or downtime. It works well for both first timers and longtime patients. Dysport is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for people with certain neuromuscular conditions or an allergy to its ingredients, which include a small amount of cow’s milk protein. A consultation with Dr. Banionis is the best way to confirm it is right for you.
What happens during a Dysport appointment?
A Dysport appointment is quick and comfortable, usually finished in about fifteen to twenty minutes. Dr. Banionis first studies how your muscles move and maps the precise injection points for your goals. He then uses a very fine needle to place small amounts of Dysport into the targeted muscles. Most people feel only a tiny pinch. No anesthesia is needed, and you can return to your day right afterward.
How long does Dysport take to work?
Dysport often starts to take effect within two to three days, which is a little faster than some other neuromodulators, with the full result at about one to two weeks. Lines continue to soften as the muscles relax. Because it builds in gradually, the change looks natural rather than sudden. We may schedule a quick check about two weeks after a first treatment to fine tune if needed.
How long does Dysport last?
Dysport results typically last about three to four months. As the effect wears off, muscle movement returns and lines slowly reappear, which is the signal for maintenance. Many patients treat a few times a year, and with consistent treatment some people find their results hold a little longer over time.
What is the difference between Dysport and filler?
Dysport and dermal filler solve different problems. Dysport relaxes muscles to smooth dynamic lines from movement, like frown and forehead lines. Dermal filler restores lost volume and refines contours in areas like the cheeks, lips, and jawline. If your concern is expression lines, Dysport is usually the answer. If it is volume or structure, filler is. Dr. Banionis often combines them in a facial balancing plan.
How much does Dysport cost in Wellington?
Dysport is priced per unit, and because Dysport units are measured differently from other neuromodulators, the number of units is not comparable to Botox. Your total depends on the areas treated and how much product your muscles need. We provide an exact quote at your consultation and dose conservatively for a natural result. Members receive a preferred rate on neuromodulators.
Does Dysport hurt, and is there downtime?
Dysport is nearly painless. The needle is very fine, and most people feel only a brief pinch at each point. There is essentially no downtime, so you can return to work and normal activities right away. Some patients notice minor redness, small bumps, or occasional light bruising that settles quickly, which makes Dysport easy to fit into a busy schedule.
What is the aftercare for Dysport?
Dysport aftercare is simple, and a few easy steps help your results settle evenly:
- Stay upright for about four hours and avoid lying face down
- Avoid rubbing or massaging the treated areas for the rest of the day
- Skip strenuous exercise, saunas, and hot yoga for about twenty four hours
- Avoid facials or other treatments on the area for a day or two
- Follow any specific instructions Dr. Banionis gives you
Will Dysport make me look frozen?
No, not when it is done well. A frozen look comes from too much product or poor placement, not from Dysport itself. Our approach is built around natural, refreshed results. Dr. Banionis doses conservatively and balances the whole face, so you keep your natural expressions and simply look smoother and more rested.

Dysport vs Botox vs Daxxify: how do they compare?
Dysport is one of several neuromodulators we offer. Here is a simple comparison.
| Neuromodulator | Onset and duration | Often chosen for |
|---|---|---|
| Dysport | Works in two to three days, lasts about three to four months | Faster onset and smooth spread, great for larger areas like the forehead |
| Botox | Works in three to five days, lasts about three to four months | Precise control for small, detailed areas |
| Daxxify | Works in a few days, may last longer for some patients | A peptide formulated option known for longer lasting results |
Because the units differ between products, there is no direct per unit price comparison. Dr. Banionis recommends the best option for your muscles, your goals, and how long you want results to last. Learn more on our Botox and Daxxify pages.
