Dysport in Ellicott City & Columbia, MD

Dysport is an injectable treatment that relaxes the facial muscles responsible for frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead lines. Dr. Beth Comeau has administered thousands of neuromodulator treatments for patients throughout Ellicott City, Columbia, and Howard County, and offers Dysport as an alternative to Botox Cosmetic for patients seeking a different onset, spread, or feel from their treatment.

Dysport vs. Botox: Which Is Right for You?

Dysport and Botox Cosmetic both belong to the same family of treatments and work in a similar way, but they aren’t identical. Dysport tends to have a slightly faster onset, often visible within days, and some patients find it spreads more evenly across larger treatment areas like the forehead. Dr. Comeau evaluates each patient’s facial anatomy, goals, and treatment history to recommend the product that will give the best result.

How Do I Get Started?

Dysport is highly effective in treating moderate to severe lines and wrinkles. As the photos above show, frown lines between the brows are greatly diminished 14 days after the initial treatment. Individual results may vary. For more information, visit the Dysport website at www.dysport.com.

If you’ve never used Dysport, your first step is to schedule a consultation. Dr. Comeau will evaluate your skin type and your goals, and make a recommendation that is right for you.

What Dysport Treats

Dysport is most commonly used for frown lines between the brows (glabellar lines) and can also address forehead lines and crow’s feet. Results typically become visible within 2–5 days, continue to improve over the following two weeks, and last approximately 3–4 months.

What to Expect During Treatment

With just 1 injection into each of 5 points between and over the eyebrows, Dysport blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, ultimately resulting in a reduction of muscle activity and temporarily preventing contraction of the muscles that cause frown lines. You should not be treated with Dysport more frequently than every 90 days.

Treatment takes about 10–20 minutes and involves several small injections into the target muscles. Most patients return to normal activities immediately afterward, with no meaningful downtime. Dr. Comeau will discuss aftercare and follow-up timing based on your specific treatment.

Can I Use Dysport and Still Look Like Me?

Prescription Dysport is an injection used to temporarily improve the look of your moderate to severe frown lines without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas.

Important Safety Information

Dysport may cause serious side effects, including difficulty swallowing, speaking, or breathing, which can occur hours to weeks after treatment and require immediate medical attention. Dysport should not be used by anyone allergic to Dysport, botulinum toxin products, or cow’s milk protein, or by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Tell your doctor about all medical conditions and medications before treatment. Full prescribing and safety information is available at dysport.com.

How Long Has Dysport Been Used?

Though approved in the United States for aesthetic use in April 2009, Dysport has a history of use in other countries since 1991. Outside the U.S., it was first approved for aesthetic use in 2001.

What Should I Avoid While Getting Dysport?

Dysport may cause loss of strength or general muscle weakness, blurred vision, or drooping eyelids within hours to weeks of taking Dysport. If this happens, do not drive a car, operate machinery, or do other dangerous activities.
