Botox® Cosmetic is an FDA-approved injectable that can be used to temporarily improve the appearance of forehead wrinkles, wrinkles in between the brows (glabella), and crow’s feet in adults. Botox® uses a form of botulinum toxin to temporarily paralyze muscle activity, which effectively relaxes the muscles and reduces the appearance of wrinkles on the skin. Botox® can also be used to reduce the effects of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis).
The injections are nearly painless and there is no downtime! The average amount of units required varies by treatment area and muscle strength and a consultation is required.
Areas that can be treated include:
- Frown lines (those pesky 11’s between your eyebrows)
- Forehead lines
- Crows feet (around the eyes)
- Jelly roll (wrinkles underneath the eyes)
- Masseters (muscles around your jawline that are activated especially if you grind your teeth)
- Underarms to treat Hyperhidrosis
- Mentalis muscle (dimpling chin)
- Corners of your mouth (smile lift) treating Depressor Anguli Oris

Dysport is used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, forehead lines and the wrinkles around your eyes. The main difference between Botox and Dysport (besides the manufacturer) is the number of units. One unit of Botox is equivalent to three units of Dysport. The pricing is equal but we can discuss during your consultation which product is best for you!
Dysport and Botox are used to treat and prevent wrinkles in adults. These noninvasive injections help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by relaxing the underlying muscles beneath the skin. By relaxing and stilling the muscles, the skin above them turns smoother.
Neither treatment gets rid of existing wrinkles for good, but the effects are meant to make wrinkles less noticeable.
While both treatments contain a similar main active ingredient, trace protein amounts can vary. This can make one treatment more effective than another for some people.
