DYSPORT™
Dysport™ is a cutting-edge solution for reducing wrinkles, much like its well-known counterpart, BOTOX® Cosmetic. As a purified protein, Dysport™ works by weakening the muscles responsible for creating common wrinkles in areas such as the forehead and between the eyebrows.
Approved by the FDA in April 2009, Dysport™, developed by Medicis Aesthetics, Inc., the same trusted creators of Restylane and Perlane, offers a compelling alternative to BOTOX® Cosmetic. It specifically targets the lines between the eyebrows (known as the "11" lines) and effectively relaxes the muscles that contribute to wrinkle formation. Extensive research and studies have shown that Dysport™ is not only safe but also equally effective as BOTOX® Cosmetic.

ABOUT DYSPORT
Dysport™ (abobotulinumtoxinA) is a botulinum toxin type A that effectively reduces muscular spasm by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine from nerve endings. With a history of safe use in patient care since 1991 and marketing authorizations in 75 countries, Dysport™ has gained recognition for its therapeutic benefits. In the United States, it is FDA-approved for two indications: the treatment of cervical dystonia to alleviate abnormal head position and neck pain, and the temporary improvement of moderate to severe glabellar lines in adults under 65 years old. Medicis proudly markets Dysport™ for its aesthetic use in addressing glabellar lines.
WHAT DYSPORT TREATS
-
Dysport™ is approved for the treatment of cervical dystonia, a neurological disorder characterized by abnormal head position and neck muscle spasms. It helps reduce the severity of abnormal head movements and associated pain.
-
Dysport™ is indicated for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines, which are the vertical lines between the eyebrows. It can help smooth and soften these lines for a more youthful appearance.
-
Dysport™ is effective in reducing muscular spasms caused by various conditions. It works by inhibiting the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter involved in muscle contractions, providing relief from spasms.
-
Apart from the above indications, Dysport™ has marketing authorizations in multiple countries for additional therapeutic uses, such as the treatment of spasticity in upper limb muscles, focal spasticity, and certain types of facial wrinkles.
