What is Dysport?
Top of page
Our physician-administered Los Angeles Dysport treatments
originate from the cosmetic form of botulinum
toxin, often referred to by its product name
Dysport®. This popular non-surgical injection
that temporarily reduces or eliminates frown
lines, forehead creases, and crows feet near
the eyes. The toxin blocks the nerve impulses,
temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause
wrinkles so that the skin has a smoother, more
refreshed appearance.
How long does
your Los Angeles Dysport treatment take?
Top of page
Our Dysport treatment takes about 10-15 minutes. For those who prefer numbing cream
beforehand, plan on an extra 20-30 minutes so
that the numbing cream has time to take effect.

to work after your Los Angeles Dysport treatment?

What are the side
effects and risks of your Los Angeles Dysport
treatments?
Top of page
Along with its desired effects, Dysport treatments can cause unwanted effects. These are rare, but can include temporary soreness or mild bruising around the injection site. Some people may experience a slight headache that lasts for several hours after treatment (it is safe to take Tylenol or other pain reliever to help with this).
In a very small percentage of cases there can be a complication called "ptosis" (a drooping eyelid) which may last a few days or up to 4 weeks. Rarely, an allergic reaction can cause a skin rash or "flu like" symptoms. Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any of these side effects.
You should not have Dysport treatments if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or at all if you have a neuromuscular disease.
