What areas of the face can be treated with Dysport?
Dysport is commonly used to treat various areas of the face to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines caused by facial muscle movement. Some of the primary areas of the face that can be treated with Dysport include:
Glabellar Lines (Vertical Frown Lines)
These are the vertical lines that appear between the eyebrows when you frown. Dysport can effectively relax the muscles responsible for these lines, resulting in a smoother forehead.
Forehead Lines
Dysport can be used to soften horizontal lines that form on the forehead when you raise your eyebrows.
Crow’s Feet
These are the fine lines that radiate outward from the corners of the eyes when you smile or squint. Dysport can be used to minimize the appearance of crow’s feet.
Bunny Lines
Bunny lines are diagonal lines that appear on the sides of the nose when you scrunch up your nose. Dysport can be used to reduce these lines.
Eyebrow Lift
Dysport can be strategically injected to create a subtle lift in the eyebrows, resulting in a more open and refreshed appearance.
Chin Dimpling
Dysport can be used to minimize the appearance of dimples or “orange peel” texture on the chin area.
Jaw Contouring
Dysport can be injected into the masseter muscles (jaw muscles) to achieve a more slender and balanced appearance of the jawline.
Gummy Smile Correction
Dysport can be used to reduce excessive gum exposure when smiling, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing smile.
Neck Bands (Platysmal Bands)
Dysport can be used to address prominent vertical bands on the neck by relaxing the underlying muscles responsible for their appearance.
It’s important to note that Dysport injections should be administered by a qualified healthcare professional who has experience with the product and a thorough understanding of facial anatomy. They can help determine the best treatment plan to address your specific concerns and achieve natural-looking results. As with any cosmetic treatment, individual results may vary, and a personalized consultation is essential to create a tailored treatment approach.


The duration of Dysport’s effects can vary from person to person, but on average, it typically lasts around 3 to 4 months. After receiving Dysport injections, you may start to notice the smoothing effects within a few days, with full results appearing within 1 to 2 weeks. As time passes, the treated muscles gradually regain their function, and wrinkles may begin to reappear.
Can I get Dysport injections during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
TThe use of Dysport (and other botulinum toxin type A injectables) during pregnancy and breastfeeding is generally not recommended. The safety of using Dysport in pregnant or breastfeeding individuals has not been extensively studied, and there is limited data available on its effects during these periods.
“Dysport works by temporarily relaxing muscles, and its effects can potentially spread beyond the intended treatment area. Because of this, there is a theoretical risk that it could affect other muscles in the body or cross the placenta during pregnancy.”

To err on the side of caution, most healthcare professionals advise against undergoing Dysport injections while pregnant or breastfeeding. It is essential to prioritize the health and safety of both the mother and the baby during these periods.
If you are considering Dysport treatment and are pregnant or breastfeeding, it’s essential to discuss your situation with your obstetrician or primary healthcare provider. They can provide personalized advice based on your medical history and individual circumstances.
In any case, it is crucial to avoid self-administering any cosmetic treatments and to consult with a qualified healthcare professional before undergoing any cosmetic procedures during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
