Dysport®

Understanding Dysport®: How It Works and What to Expect


Dysport® is a prescription injectable medication that contains botulinum toxin type A, commonly used to diminish the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face. By relaxing the underlying muscles, Dysport® helps smooth out the skin, giving it a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Similar to BOTOX®, Dysport® is frequently applied to areas such as the forehead, around the eyes, and between the eyebrows to target expression lines and prevent new wrinkles from forming.


Quick and Effective Wrinkle Reduction with Dysport®


The treatment process with Dysport® is both quick and relatively painless, making it a convenient option for those seeking to improve their facial aesthetics without extensive downtime. Most patients begin to see noticeable results within a few days of treatment, enjoying a smoother and more rejuvenated look.

If you're interested in reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, consider scheduling a consultation with one of our experienced providers at Cumberland Skin. Our team is here to help you achieve your desired results with personalized treatment plans designed to enhance your natural beauty.

What to Expect at Your Dysport Appointment

Your provider will create a personalized treatment plan, cleansing the area before administering Dysport through injections. Post-treatment care instructions may be given, and results, noticeable immediately, may take a few days to finalize. Your provider may discuss follow-up plans, and individuals can usually resume normal activities shortly after the session with minimal downtime.

Dysport Maintenance Recommendations

For effective maintenance after Dysport treatment, schedule follow-up appointments as recommended for result assessment and potential touch-ups. Regularly apply broad-spectrum sunscreen to extend the benefits, and adopt a healthy skincare routine with gentle products. Avoid harsh skincare items immediately post-treatment to prevent irritation. Ensure overall skin vitality by staying well-hydrated and maintaining a balanced lifestyle with proper nutrition, exercise, and sufficient sleep. Consider using dermatologist-recommended topicals tailored to your skin's needs and attend scheduled check-ins with your provider for ongoing skin assessment and care.

These appointments serve to assess the results of the treatment and determine if any touch-ups are needed.
