What Lasts Longer: Botox or Dysport?

While Botox and Dysport are both used as weapons in the never-ending battle against wrinkles, there remain differences in the way each treatment works. For example, Both methods are powerful anti-wrinkle fighters, but which one lasts longer?

This article examines some of the basics of both treatments such as what lasts longer, Botox or Dysport and what youth-seekers should expect from both methods.

Botox is injected into specific muscles to stop them from creating the expression that causes wrinkles. Dysport, on the other hand, is injected into a wider area of muscles to relax them. The result is a smoother skin that lasts longer – up to a year with a single treatment.

Everyone worries about wrinkles as they age. Unfortunately, as we grow older, the muscles in our face begin to look fatigued and worn as fine lines form. We all know that Botox is a trendy way to help reduce the appearance of these lines. Fewer people know how Dysport works or why it can help with their anti-aging goals.

Botox vs. Dysport

Botox is an injectable drug that relaxes the muscles in the face to reduce wrinkles by paralyzing them. It has been used by millions worldwide for years now because it is a safe and effective way to smooth out those stubborn wrinkles.

When injected directly into specific muscles where wrinkles appear, Botox effectively “turns off” those facial expressions so that you can enjoy long-lasting results for up to a year with a single treatment.

On average, Botox injections last for about three to four months. That means you can go up to six months without having another injection if you don’t want too many lines on your forehead or around your eyes.

There are some drawbacks to Botox, especially when it comes to cost. It costs anywhere from $300-$600 per treatment depending on where you live and how much product is used during the procedure. And because it only lasts for a few months, you’ll have to get injections every four to six months to maintain the anti-wrinkle benefits. 

Also, it takes about 10 days for Botox to take full effect, but you may notice smoother skin right away.

Like Botox, Dysport is also an injectable drug, but it works differently. Dysport is a neurotoxin that relaxes the muscles in your face, but it also temporarily freezes them. This means that the results of Dysport treatments last longer than Botox injections because the muscles are paralyzed for a longer period of time.

Dysport treatments usually last for about three to four months as well, but they cost less than Botox injections. You can usually find Dysport treatments for around $200-$300 per treatment. And like Botox, you’ll need to get treatments every four to six months for anti-aging benefits.

The cost and length of treatments means that both Botox and Dysport injections are effective ways to prevent wrinkles, but most people choose between these two options based on where they live.

Some doctors only use one drug over the other, so if you want to get an injection in your forehead or crow’s feet you might have to go through a few different procedures with different doctors.

There are some who say that they like the idea of not having any downtime after getting their injections done with Dysport whereas others prefer the instant gratification of seeing results from Botox right away.

Ultimately both products have pros and cons so it all comes down to what works best for you.
