Columbus, Ohio: Dysport®… The Newest Injectable NOW at Donaldson Plastic Surgery

A new wrinkle treatment is available at Donaldson Plastic Surgery in Columbus, Ohio. Dysport®,has recently received FDA approval to smooth age-related fine lines, frowns and deep creases. Dysport® (pronounced
‘DISS-port’) has been used safely and successfully in Europe for years, and it is now considered the first real competition for BOTOX in the United States.

Many patients report that Dysport® works quicker and lasts longer than BOTOX. Both products relax the facial muscles using the same active ingredient, botulinum toxin type A; however, Dysport is made with a smaller molecule which may account for improved effects. BOTOX usually starts working in 3-14 days, and some patients have noticed a faster onset when using Dysport. This is especially useful for patients desiring quick results before an important social event or public appearance.

Dysport may also last longer. Some patients who have tried both products report that a single treatment with Dysport® lasted at least one month longer than BOTOX — four months instead of three.

Dysport could prove to be more cost-effective. While the per-treatment cost for BOTOX and Dysport is similar, an additional month of therapeutic effect would result in considerable savings over the course of a year — potentially one less treatment annually with Dysport. Columbus, Ohio patients who experience longer-lasting effects with Dysport will also find increased value.
