Question 1

What is the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Accepted Answer

Both Botox and Dysport are FDA-approved neuromodulators used to relax facial muscles and reduce wrinkles. Dysport typically diffuses more quickly, making it ideal for larger treatment areas, while Botox may offer more precision for smaller zones like crow’s feet or frown lines.

Are Botox and Dysport safe?
