In-Depth
What You Need to Know
Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA) works through the same mechanism as Botox — blocking nerve signals to relax muscles — but has some differences in formulation. It tends to diffuse more broadly from the injection site, which can be advantageous for larger treatment areas like the forehead. Many patients report seeing results 2-3 days sooner than Botox. Dysport uses a different unit measurement than Botox (roughly 2.5-3 Dysport units equals 1 Botox unit), so pricing and dosing should not be directly compared unit-for-unit. Results last 3-4 months. Some patients alternate between Botox and Dysport, and individual preferences for one product over the other are common.
