The composition and treatment modality for Botox and Dysport is very similar, but these injectables are also distinct from each other in certain ways. An experienced med spa treatment provider will explain the pros and cons of various treatment options at the time of initial consultation to enable the patient to make an informed decision. Dr. Q Medical Spa provides Botox and Dysport to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and surrounding communities.

Popularity and Acceptance

Botox injectable anti-aging facial treatment has been around for more than 15 years. It received the FDA’s approval in 2002 for the reduction of frown lines, and ever since then it has continued to be the most popular and widely accepted non-surgical anti-aging facial injectable in the US and internationally. Botox is manufactured by Allergan, Inc., which is a leading company producing high quality medical products and devices.

In 2013, the FDA further approved Botox for the cosmetic reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes, which has boosted its credibility further. Over the years, a number of celebrities have acknowledged the benefits of Botox, which has contributed to its popularity. More than a million women and men in the US receive the benefits of Botox each year.

Dysport, on the other hand, was the leading anti-wrinkle injectable in Europe for many years before it was approved by the FDA in 2009 for the US market. Dysport is manufactured by Medicis, which is also a prominent company for aesthetic medical products, including Restylane group of dermal fillers. Dr. Q Medical Spa receives patients from Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, and nearby areas for Botox and Dysport injections.

Key Differences

One of the differences in the composition of Botox and Dysport injectables is that the size of molecules in case of Botox is slightly bigger than that of Dysport. Therefore, the unit measure of the two treatments is done differently. Due to its relatively lower popularity, Dysport may cost a little lower at some practices, but this will ultimately depend on the pricing policy of an individual practice.

Effectiveness as well as risk profile in both Botox and Dysport has shown to be quite similar in various research studies. But some physicians tend to believe that the results with Botox may be a little more sustainable and longer lasting as compared to Dysport.

On the upside for Dysport, some analysts suggest that the results with this injectable treatment can be established faster (within two to five days) as compared to Botox, which may take about four to seven days. Dysport may diffuse to a relatively wider area, which may be both an advantage and a disadvantage, depending on which area is being treated.

YOUR HYDRAFACIAL™ EXPERIENCE Beauty doesn’t have to be painful! Many patients describe the HydraFacial™ experience as a relaxing treatment akin to having “a cool paintbrush moving over the face.” Your HydraFacial™ can be custom-formulated with different serums to address your specific skincare concerns.  See what Hydrafacial can do!   YOUR MICRONEEDLING EXPERIENCE The Eclipse MicroPen™ harnesses powerful medical-grade micro-needling technology in order to maximize your skin’s natural wound-healing capabilities. This minimally-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment is ideal for patients who are dissatisfied with their tired, worn appearance and are seeking improvement. See what Microneedling can do! YOUR EMATRIX EXPERIENCE The eMatrix™ system is a non-laser and non-light−based treatment that directs powerful fractionated bi-polar radio frequency (RF) heat energy to the inner layers of the skin (dermis), where it produces significant deep tissue improvements. eMatrix™ acts to “jump start” your body’s healing capabilities and stimulate the growth of new collagen, all without damaging the surface of the skin, which allows for minimal post-treatment downtime.  See what eMatrix can do!   YOUR IPL PHOTOFACIAL EXPERIENCE Although there are many advantages to living in a warm, sun-drenched climate such as California, the cumulative effects of persistent sun exposure is one of the primary causes of severe skin damage, which can manifest in the form of aesthetically undesirable pigmentation spots on our face, arms, hands, shoulders, and chest. An IPL Photofacial is a non-invasive, light-based skin rejuvenation treatment that helps to enhance the tone, appearance, color, and texture of the skin with minimal discomfort and no post-treatment downtime.  See what IPL can do!
