DYSPORT the BOTOX® Alternative is here!
Introducing a new Botox alternative called Dysport. Dysport has been used in Europe for over 18 years with over 2 million users. The FDA in the USA approved Dysport in July of 2009.
Blue Medi Spa Los Angeles Top Medical Spais pleased to provide Dysport as a new alternative to Botox for our clients. We are very confident in this new product, members of our medical staff have been injecting this product for many years in Europe prior to coming to the USA and have had great results.
Discover The Dysport Difference
Dysport is very similar to Botox® Cosmetic. They are both from the same drug family, Abobotulinum Toxin A.
However, there are some differences. Dysport can be more cost effective as the cost per unit is less; though, Dysport requires more units per treatment. Clinical studies have also shown visible results within 24-48 hours. There is also evidence that Dysport injections may be more effective with large muscle groups.

Dysport Injection Results
Moderate to severe wrinkles are temporarily reduced in appearance by blocking nerve impulses to muscles where the wrinkles show. Under the supervision of our medical director, a few tiny injections are directly applied to muscles that cause stubborn lines. A cooling pack may be applied prior to injection for numbing and comfort. Approximate time
20 minutes
Number of Dysport Treatments Required
Roughly four times per year. Results can last up to four months. Continued treatments help continue the wrinkle-reduced appearance and effects can last longer between intervals. Once treatments are stopped, your former appearance will return.
What to expect with Dysport Injection for Wrinkles and Fine Lines
No downtime. Discomfort is usually mild. People usually go right back to work or normal activity post-visit.
Some injection-associated events can occur in the first week, such as flu and headache symptoms and temporary drooping eyelid, or a bruise at the injection site. Less common side effects include redness and swelling at the injection site and muscle weakness.
You don't have to go to an expensive Beverly Hills Dysport treatment spa to get the celebrity treatment.
Blue Medi Spa also offers Dysport treatments for Hyperhydrosis (a condition resulting in excessive underarm perspiration). FDA-approved, this amazing Dysport treatment, through precise placement of Dysport injections, can dramatically reduce underarm moisture for up to a full year.

DYSPORT for Wrinkles: FAQS
What can Dysport do for you?
Whenever you laugh, frown, concentrate or squint into the sun, your facial muscles contract and your skin creases. As you get older your skin loses its elasticity and those creases deepen into lines that become permanently etched on your face. Frown lines between your eyes can become particularly noticeable at a relatively young age, making you look angry or worried even when you're not.
By temporarily immobilising the muscles you use to frown, Dysport can smooth out those lines, restoring a more youthful, less stressed expression to your face. Because you will be physically unable to frown after treatment, you may even lose the urge to frown. The lasting effect of treatment with Dysport can differ between individuals after which further courses of treatment may be necessary. Speak with your specialist about the results you can expect with Dysport.
Many people find after several treatements that they don't need another one for longer, because they have "unlearned" the habit of frowning or squinting that originally led to the development of these lines.
What exactly is Dysport?
Dysport is a protein extracted from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum. The protein was initially used for the treatment of motor disorders and various kinds of involuntary muscular spasms, including cerebral palsy. It was further developed to treat a wide variety of neuromuscular disorders, for which it is licensed in over 60 countries.
In New Zealand, Dysport now has registration approval under the Medicines Act for the treatment of frown lines and for excessive sweating under the armpits.
How is Dysport used?
Tiny amounts of Dysport are injected directly into the facial muscles underlying the frown lines. It usually takes three to five small, almost painless injections between the eyebrows for an effective treatment. No local anaesthetic is usually required but if you are concered your doctor can numb the skin over the area before injecting. You can expect treatment to take around 10-20 minutes.
Over the next few days, the muscles gradually relax. You probably won't notice it happening - you'll just become aware that you can't contract your frown muscles. But because you can still blink normally and raise your eyebrows, you will not look unnatural. Rather, you can enjoy a more youthful appearance while maintaining a natural expression.
Who can benefit from Dysport?
Deeply etched frown lines affect not just your appearance, but also your self-esteem and even your choice of career. Dysport can help you look younger, more relaxed and in control - for around the same price per month as a cut and colour by your hairdresser.
Many people with frown lines can benefit from Dysport - and it can work as well for men as it does for women. In fact many men are already experiencing the benefits of a younger, more relaxed looking appearance that Dysport can provide. Discuss with your specialist about the benefits of Dysport for you.
Are there any side effects and risks with Dysport?
Along with its desired effects, treatments can cause unwanted effects. This does not happen very often. The most common side effects are temporary soreness or mild bruising around the injection site. Some people may experience a slight headache that lasts for several hours after treatment; it is safe to take a mild pain killer to relieve this.
In a very small percentage of cases there can be a complication called "ptosis" (a drooping eyelid) which may last a few days or up to 4 weeks. Rarely, an allergic reaction can cause a skin rash or "flu like" symptoms. Tell your doctor if you experience any troublesome side effects.
You should not have Dysport treatment while you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or at all if you have a neuromuscular disease.
Who can provide treatment with Dysport?
Dysport is a prescription medicine containing 500 units of Clostridium botulinum type A toxin-haemagglutinin complex. It should be administered only by medical professionals, who have an excellent understanding of the muscles and expressions of the face and the skill to retain your natural expression while removing the signs of aging.
Tell your doctor what you expect to achieve in advance, be guided by their advice and ensure you are being treated by a specialist who has been properly trained in the use of Dysport.
