Dysport and Botox treatment in Mumbai are both forms of Botulinum Type A neuromodulators that have been FDA-approved for minimizing fine lines and wrinkles. Both products work by temporarily paralyzing the muscles in your face. This reduces wrinkles and smooths out skin.

Cost
The price of Dysport or Botox treatment in Mumbai varies from doctor to doctor, but on average, they cost about $400 per session. That amount varies depending on the areas you want treated and the number of units needed.
Both are botulinum toxin injections that mainly treat wrinkles by temporarily blocking the nerve impulses that control muscle contraction. They’re most effective on dynamic lines that form when you make facial expressions like smiling, frowning, or raising your eyebrows.
Unlike dermal fillers, Dysport and Botox don’t require surgery and are more affordable. They’re also less likely to irritate the skin and cause allergies. Moreover, they’re safe to use on younger patients and those with milder lines and wrinkles.
Dysport is an injectable medicine that contains the same botulinum toxin as Botox, but in a different form. It is made by adding a small amount of specific proteins to the botulinum toxin.
Safety
As a rule of thumb, it is safe for most people to receive Botox or Dysport injections. However, there are some side effects and risks associated with these treatments.
One risk is spread of the toxin to areas away from the injection site, which can cause muscle weakness and droopy eyelids in other parts of the body. Other side effects include a sudden loss of strength in the face muscles, difficulty breathing or swallowing, speaking problems, and a change in how your face looks.
Fortunately, most of these risks are rare when a professional medical professional administers Botox or Dysport. In less than 1% of cases, these injectable have serious side effects. Typically, these effects occur after the treatment and are temporary.
Efficacy
Botox and Dysport both, says our celebrity dermatologist in Mumbai, work as neuromodulators that block the nerve signal that causes your facial muscles to contract. This prevents your wrinkles from forming and smooth’s them out.
These treatments are also safe in small amounts, and they can be used on many areas of the face. However, they can differ in efficacy and how long they last depending on which one you choose.
The botulinum toxin released by the bacterium clostridium botulinum is responsible for Botox’s ability to freeze and paralyze your facial muscles. It’s injected into specific points of the skin to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions.
It’s also effective at reducing the appearance of vertical wrinkles between your eyebrows, which are called glabella lines or frown lines. In addition, it’s a good choice for patients with moderate to severe forehead lines and wrinkles.
Side Effects
Botox and Dysport are both safe to use for a variety of cosmetic procedures. They can help reduce forehead lines, crow’s feet and laugh lines.
Both treatments work by temporarily paralyzing facial muscles. This works to smooth wrinkles caused by repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting and raising eyebrows.
A skilled injector can combine both products into a single treatment to achieve the best results for your unique face. They will also consider your specific goals and preferences to determine which product is right for you.
Side effects of both treatments, according to our best dermatologist are minimal, but may include bruising, redness and swelling at the injection site. If you experience serious side effects such as droopy eyelids, trouble talking, swallowing or breathing or weakness in your face, seek emergency medical treatment.
Conclusion
Both products have an FDA-approved use for certain conditions including cervical dystonia, upper and lower limb spasticity, migraines, urinary incontinence, strabismus (crossed eyes) and chronic headaches. However, Dysport is not FDA-approved for treating excessive underarm sweating.
