Dysport treatments are ten-minute affairs, which makes them highly convenient for our patients with busy or stressful lifestyles. Dysport works by relaxing your muscles and reducing muscle activity, thus alleviating the formation of wrinkles, crow’s feet, and frown lines on your face. Depending on your unique needs, Dr. Adatia in Calgary, AB, may recommend that you come in every three to six months for subsequent Dysport treatments.
Advantages of Dysport
Muscle tension in your face and jaw areas can result in temporomandibular joint disorders (TMDs). When left untreated, TMDs can be extremely unbearable and often negatively impact the quality of your life. Dysport relaxes your muscles, thus preventing tension headaches or migraines, which are usually indicative of TMDs.
Dysport allows you to enjoy a more youthful appearance without opting for surgery. A single appointment is enough to give you back your glow, and you will only need to come in a couple of times every year.

FAQs
Dysport is a cosmetic injectable (a neuromodulator) that relaxes facial muscles to even out fine lines and wrinkles. It’s injected into specific areas of the face to help reduce dynamic lines caused by facial expressions.
Both Dysport and Botox are facial injectables that relax muscles, but Dysport may spread a bit more under the skin and sometimes shows results a bit faster, often within 2–3 days. The total cost and effect can be similar once the correct dosage is used.
Results typically last about 3–4 months, but this varies depending on your individual muscle activity, metabolism, and treatment area. Regular follow‑ups help maintain results.
Most people recount the sensation as a quick pinch or slight discomfort. The procedure is fast, usually around 10–15 minutes, and there’s minimal downtime.
Pricing varies by provider and the number of units used. Many clinics charge by the unit, and while Dysport is often less per unit than some other injectables, the total cost depends on your treatment plan.
Most patients notice improvement in 2–3 days, with full results around a week after treatment.
Adults looking to reduce the appearance of expression lines, such as frown lines between the eyebrows, or forehead wrinkles, and who are in good overall health may be good candidates. A consultation helps decide the best approach for your goals.
