Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved neuromodulators that temporarily relax the muscles responsible for fine lines and wrinkles. Botulinum toxin type A is used in both cosmetic and medical applications, describing its mechanism of action and effects on wrinkles and conditions like chronic migraine. By blocking nerve signals, these treatments smooth out existing wrinkles and help prevent new ones from forming.
There are various types of botulinum toxins, each with specific applications and brand names associated with these injections. For example, Dysport and Botox are compared for their potency differences and implications for treatment outcomes.
Botox is the most reputable neurotoxin available in the market today. As the oldest neurotoxin, its use and effectiveness have been confirmed by several studies. Botox contains additive proteins, which protect botulinum molecules from external influences. However, it has been suggested that the protective proteins may render the botox injection less effective since some people may create antibodies against these proteins.
Dysport uses smaller protein molecules to induce muscle relaxation. These smaller proteins are less likely to be broken down by antibodies. Some people have experienced faster results with Dysport, noticing a reduction in only 2-3 days while Botox can take up to a week to appear.
While both Botox and Dysport serve the same purpose, they have slight differences:

The effects of all neurotoxins should last 3-4 months, sometimes longer. As we age, the duration tends to be shorter. There is a period of time that the injection takes to wear off and the body to regain the ability to trigger muscle movement. For this reason, it’s important to establish a neurotoxin regimen to maintain optimal results.
Botox: 5-10 days
Dysport: Within 24 hours
