The Treatment
Why Skinsation LA for Dysport
Dysport is the faster-onset Botox alternative — softening lines in 24-48 hours instead of 4-7 days — and it spreads a little further than Botox, which is why injectors often favor Dysport for broad-area skin tightening on the forehead.
Dysport isn't 'cheaper Botox.' The per-unit price is lower because the unit system itself is different — typical Dysport doses run 2.5-3x the Botox unit count for the same result. The final fill cost is comparable; the experience and timing are what differ.
At Skinsation LA, your injector picks the right neurotoxin for your goal — Botox for precision around the eyes and lips, Dysport for wider-area softening across the forehead. Same family, different spread profile. Not every face gets the same answer.
Dysport vs Botox at a glance
Dysport onset: 24-48 hours. Botox onset: 3-5 days. Dysport spreads wider (good for forehead), Botox stays more precise (good for 11s and crow's feet). Duration is the same — 3-4 months.

What clients say
★★★★★
Wow, as someone who's never done this kind of stuff before, I'm very impressed. The staff at Skinsation LA were super accommodating and answered all my questions about Botox for my forehead and even recommended me Morpheus8 treatments to help tighten my saggy skin around my neck and jawline. This was such a great and painless experience with the team!
★★★★★
The staff at Skinsation LA is the best! Very knowledgeable. They have the best deals, too! I did the pop up special special of 20 units of Botox and 2 syringes of volbella in the lips 👄 I was nervous about my lips because I've had them done elsewhere before and it was SO painful - but not with Alix. The experience was quick and literally painless because of the numbing cream she uses. I'm in love with my lips and wrinkle free forehead 🙃 Highly recommend and thank you so much, Skinsation LA
★★★★★
Okay, so I’m visiting LA for the first time, and I really needed a quick fix before my wedding! The whole Botox thing was honestly something I was kinda nervous about, but let me tell you, it was SO worth it! My forehead lines disappeared, and I felt way more confident. The clinic I went to was so chill and professional. They made sure to listen to what I wanted for the wedding photos.
★★★★★
Found my new go-to spot! Super convenient location right near Wilshire and La Brea. I saw Farah for forehead Botox and she was fantastic. She has a great eye for detail and the injections were surprisingly painless. Everything looks very natural, which was my main goal. The clinic is beautiful and Farah made me feel totally at ease. 10/10 recommendation."
★★★★★
Holly is the best! Very knowledgeable, quick and precise 💕 She has great deals too! I did the October special of 30 units of Botox and 1/2 syringe of volbella in the lips 👄 I was nervous about my lips because I've had them done elsewhere before and it was SO painful - but not with Alex. The experience was quick and literally painless because of the numbing cream she uses. I'm in love with my lips and wrinkle-free forehead 🙃 Highly recommend and thank you so holly!! 🙌
★★★★★
decided to book a consultation at Skinsation LA after admiring a colleague’s aesthetic work for some time. Having managed deepening facial wrinkles for several years, I was looking for a practitioner who prioritized facial anatomy and long-term skin health over a "one-size-fits-all" fix.

FAQ
Dysport questions
What is the difference between Dysport and Botox?
Both are botulinum toxin type A injectables used to relax muscles and smooth wrinkles. Dysport has a slightly smaller molecule that diffuses a bit further, making it well-suited for larger areas like the forehead. Onset is often faster (24-48 hours) and the per-unit pricing is lower because Dysport uses a different unit system — typical Dysport doses run 2.5-3x the Botox unit count for the same result.
How long does Dysport last?
Dysport typically lasts 3 to 4 months. Most clients report full effects within 7-14 days, with initial softening visible in 24-48 hours.
How many units of Dysport do I need?
Dysport unit counts are not interchangeable with Botox. Typical treatments range 50-120 units depending on the area — forehead 40-60, 11s 50-75, crow's feet 20-40 per side. Your provider will dose for your muscle strength, not a fixed number.
Is Dysport safe?
Yes. Dysport is FDA-approved and has been used clinically in the United States since 2009 (and in Europe since the 1990s). At Skinsation LA, every injection is performed by a licensed, experienced injector.
Can I combine Dysport with other treatments?
Yes. Dysport pairs well with dermal fillers, chemical peels, microneedling, and laser treatments. Your provider can build a combined plan at your consultation.
