Reduce Unwanted Frown Lines With Dysport®
Dysport® is a cosmetic injectable FDA-approved to correct moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, also known as the glabellar lines or angry 11s. When injected into targeted facial muscles around the eyebrows, Dysport® suppresses the unwanted wrinkles, making your facial skin look smoother and more youthful. Beyond its FDA-approved application for frown lines, Dysport® can also correct other dynamic wrinkles, such as the forehead lines, crow’s feet, laugh lines, and more.
Fountain of You MD offers Dysport® at our Virginia Beach and Chesapeake locations.
Dysport® is a neuromodulator (botulinum toxin injection)
To understand how Dysport® works, you must understand dynamic wrinkles, also known as expression lines. Dynamic wrinkles are those that appear when conveying certain emotions, such as the frown lines between the eyebrows and the crow’s feet around the eyes. When you’re young, these wrinkles only appear when you’re actively communicating emotions. But as you grow older, the overuse of these facial muscles leads to the permanent onset of expression lines, making them stay on your face even at rest.
Dysport® is a neuromodulator made of botulinum toxin, the same neurotoxin protein as Botox®. Botulinum toxin type A can essentially block communications between nerve endings and specific facial muscles. When injected into targeted facial muscles, Dysport® can relax the muscles responsible for the onset of your dynamic wrinkles. Over time, the associated expression lines fade away, making your facial skin look smoother and younger. The results appear within a few days and last for several months.
Dysport® Can Correct the Following:
- Horizontal forehead lines
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Nasolabial folds around the nose
- Marionette lines around the mouth
- Perioral lines around the lips
- Chin creases and dimples (cobblestone chin)
- Muscle bands on the neck
Dysport® Dosing Guide by Treatment Area
Dysport® dosing is never one-size-fits-all. Your injector will evaluate your anatomy, muscle strength, and aesthetic goals to build a personalized treatment plan. While most patients fall within standard ranges, your exact dosage is determined by what’s right for you specifically. Men often require higher doses to address naturally stronger facial muscles.
Prevent Wrinkles With
Early Dysport® Treatments
Early Dysport® intervention can help you prevent or delay the onset of wrinkles for years or decades. Dynamic wrinkles become permanent because of the overuse of certain facial muscles to produce expressions. If you start undergoing treatments of Dysport® in your early 20s, your facial muscles won’t be used enough to produce permanent wrinkles, helping you maintain wrinkle-free skin longer. With early intervention, you can delay the signs of aging by years or even decades.
Book a consultation at either our Virginia Beach or Chesapeake location to see if preventative Dysport® is right for you.
Benefits of Dysport® Treatments:
- No incisions or scarring
- Only a few injections to achieve smoother skin
- Addresses the root cause of dynamic wrinkles
- Prevent new wrinkles from appearing
- No harsh side effects or complications
- No post-treatment downtime
- Long-lasting results
Your One-on-One Personalized Dysport® Consultation
Your treatment of starts with a simple, in-office consultation. Our medical providers and nurse practitioners examine your facial skin, discuss your goals, review your health history, and curate a personalized treatment plan. Unlike most other medical spas, we personalize the Dysport® dosage to ensure naturalized results that betray no signs of cosmetic work. We ensure your results are perfectly natural, no overcorrection, frozen expressions, or stiffness.
Your Dysport® Experience
The medical provider cleanses your face, applies a numbing gel, and administers the appropriate units of Dysport® into the targeted treatment areas using ultrafine needles.
Minimal Post-Treatment Side Effects
The Dysport® treatment involves minimal post-treatment side effects, such as redness, swelling, discomfort, itching, bruising, and irritation around the targeted areas. The side effects dissipate within a few days.
No Downtime or Activity Limitations
Dysport® doesn’t involve any downtime. You can resume your daily activities and work immediately after your Dysport® treatment, but you should avoid strenuous physical activities and facial massages for a day or two.
See Optimal Results Within 2 Weeks
The Dysport® results start appearing within a few days, with continued improvements for 2 weeks. The final results last for 3 to 4 months, following which you need additional maintenance treatments.

What is the difference between Dysport and Botox?
Both Dysport and Botox are FDA approved neuromodulators used to soften expression lines by relaxing targeted facial muscles. They work through the same general mechanism, but their formulations are slightly different, which can influence how they behave once injected. Onset time and how it spreads may vary between the two, although the end result is similar when the treatment is placed correctly. Choosing between them usually comes down to your injector’s recommendation, your anatomy and how your body responds to each option. Learn more about the differences between Botox and Dysport.
How much does Dysport cost?
Dysport is priced per unit, and because we consider Dysport dosing in terms of Botox Equivalent Units (BEUs), the price is directly comparable.
At Fountain of You MD, we price Botox and Dysport the same (unless a specific promotion states otherwise). Overall treatment cost depends on the area being treated and how much product is needed to achieve your desired look.
How many units of Dysport do I need?
At Fountain of You MD, we consider Dysport dosing in terms of Botox Equivalent Units (BEUs). Dysport dosing is personalized for each patient and depends on the area being treated, the strength of your facial muscles, your anatomy, your treatment history, and the result you want to achieve. During your consultation, your injector will assess your natural movement patterns and create a dosing plan tailored to your goals.
Typical ranges include:
- Frown lines (glabella or “elevens”): 20 to 30 units
- Forehead lines: 10 to 20 units
- Crow’s feet: 6 to 12 units per side
- Lip flip: 4 to 8 units
- Masseters: 25 to 50 units per side
Dysport Dosage for Men
Men typically require approximately 20-50% more units than women due to their stronger facial muscles. Your injector will assess your muscles and recommend the right amount.
Is Dysport safe?
Dysport has a long history of safe use when administered by a trained medical professional. Side effects like mild bruising, headache or temporary asymmetry can occur but serious complications are uncommon.
Does Dysport hurt?
Most patients find Dysport treatments very easy to tolerate. The injections are quick, and at Fountain of You MD we use the thinnest needles available to keep the experience as comfortable as possible. This typically feels like a brief pinch rather than true pain. We also provide simple comfort options such as a stress ball, a vibration device to help redirect sensation, and a short ice application for those who prefer additional numbing. Our injectors use a gentle and efficient technique, so any fleeting discomfort settles immediately once the injection is finished. The entire process is completed within minutes.
How long does Dysport last?
Expect results to last about three to four months. Longevity varies depending on metabolism, muscle strength and dosing. Regular treatments help maintain consistent softening.
How quickly does Dysport work?
Most people start to notice results in two to three days. While some may see improvement sooner, others need the full week before they begin to see peak smoothing. It is generally considered a slightly faster acting option compared to Botox.
What is Dysport?
Dysport is an FDA approved neuromodulator used to soften facial expression lines by relaxing targeted muscles. It works similarly to Botox but has a slightly different formula, which can influence how it spreads and how quickly it takes effect.
