Dysport Injections in Atlanta, GA
Many people start to see changes in their appearance as they begin to age, and it can be disconcerting when the face you see reflected in the mirror no longer looks like you.
If you desire to conceal some signs of aging so that the “real you” once again appears in the mirror, a neuromodulator treatment may be the answer you are looking for. You can temporarily reduce the look of frown lines, crow’s feet, and furrowed forehead lines with Dysport® as an alternative to BOTOX without sacrificing your natural facial expressions.

Schedule A ConsultationWhat Is Dysport®?
Similar to Botox®, Dysport® is composed of botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin developed for aesthetic purposes. Dysport prevents the dynamic wrinkles caused by facial muscle contractions by blocking the nerve signals that cause them. These lines are caused by repeatedly squinting, smiling, and frowning and can make you feel less confident. Dysport injections are quick and easy, and the results can make you look years younger.
Who Is A Candidate?
You may be a good candidate for Dysport if you would like to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on your face, forehead, and around your eyes. Dysport relaxes the muscles responsible for creating these lines and gives your skin a smoother and more youthful look. Dysport may be a good choice for you if:
- You are at least 18 years of age;
- You are not pregnant or nursing;
- You are in good health;
- If you have noticeable dynamic lines or wrinkles on your face;
- You want to look refreshed but very natural;
- You are looking for a non-surgical treatment that is quick to perform and does not require any downtime;
- You have been using Botox, but it no longer seems to be working as well for you.
Procedure Steps
A surgical pen may be used to carefully mark the targeted areas where the Dysport injections will be placed to ensure the injections are done with utmost precision.
Dysport injections are generally well tolerated, but a local anesthetic can be applied to the treatment area to enhance patient comfort if desired.
Your qualified IBI Plastic Surgery & Med Spa professional will inject Dysport into the predetermined areas based on the desired results. The entire procedure usually only takes about 15 minutes.

Recovery
There is virtually no recovery time after Dysport injections, but there are some things you should do to ensure you get the best possible results. Your IBI Plastic Surgery & Med Spa specialist will provide you with post-treatment guidelines.
Results
Dysport results in a smoother, more youthful appearance by relaxing the muscles that cause fine lines and wrinkles. Many patients begin to see improvements as soon as 2 to 3 days after the injections, with full results manifesting within 10 to 14 days.
The effects of Dysport typically last 3 to 4 months, depending on your metabolism, lifestyle, and your specific facial muscle activity. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the results and prevent deep wrinkles from becoming more pronounced as you get older.
How Much Does Dysport® Cost In Atlanta?
The cost of Dysport varies by patient and the number of units needed to treat the target area. Keep in mind that Botox and Dysport are not dosed equally; it takes 3 units of Dysport to treat each location compared to 1 unit of Botox. The cost of Dysport units usually ranges from $6 to $8, and during your consultation, our team will discuss the cost and details of your exact procedure. We will also be happy to share information about our available financing options.

Dysport FAQs
Are There Any Dysport Side Effects?
Dysport is approved by the FDA and is considered safe, but Dysport can have side effects, though they are usually mild and temporary. Some common side effects include:
- Redness, swelling, bruising, or mild irritation at the injection site is common and typically resolves within a few days;
- Some people experience a mild headache after treatment, which usually goes away quickly;
- Since Dysport relaxes targeted muscles, some people may notice temporary weakness in nearby areas;
- If Dysport spreads beyond the intended area, it can cause slight drooping, but this is rare and usually temporary;
- A small percentage of patients report mild flu-like symptoms, such as fatigue or body aches, which typically resolve within a day or two.
Are Dysport Injections Painful?
Dysport injections may cause minimal discomfort, but most people only feel a quick pinch, but numbing cream can be applied before the procedure to help mitigate discomfort.
Can Men Use Dysport?
Yes, many men choose to have Dysport treatments to help minimize wrinkles and lines on their faces, making them look more relaxed and approachable.
How to Care for Your Dysport Injections for Best Results?
Some of the most common things you should do right after your injections include:
- You should remain in an upright position for at least four hours after you get your Dysport injections to prevent the product from migrating into unwanted areas;
- You need to avoid touching or rubbing the treated areas for the first 24 hours to ensure the product stays in the areas where it was intended;
- Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before and after your injections because it can thin your blood and increase the risk of bruising and swelling at the injection sites.
