How does Dysport work?
Facial wrinkles appear because of the overuse of certain facial muscles to produce expressions, such as laughing and frowning. When you overuse certain muscles, they become larger and more prominent, leading to the constant presence of wrinkles and creases on your facial skin. This makes you look older, tired, and more upset, which can also affect how you feel internally and how you’re perceived by others.
Dysport is a neuromodulator, just like Botox and Xeomin. It’s composed of a neurotoxin protein called botulinum toxin type A, which, when injected into the facial tissues, paralyzes the muscles responsible for your wrinkles. Dysport essentially blocks communication between specific nerve endings and facial muscles, thereby preventing the muscle contractions that cause wrinkles. The results are smoother, softer, and more youthful facial features.
