Let’s be real—when it comes to injectables like Dysport, everyone seems to know someone who’s “heard something” about it. Whether it’s a friend who swears it freezes your face or a social media rumor that it’s the same as Botox, there’s a lot of misinformation out there.
At Harmonized Aesthetics, we believe confidence starts with clarity, so we’re here to set the record straight. Dysport is a powerful and precise treatment that helps smooth expression lines, like those deep lines between your brows, without sacrificing any of your natural movement.
Let’s dive into the truth behind Dysport treatments in Tallahassee and debunk 4 of the most common misconceptions standing between you and smoother, refreshed skin.
Myth #1: Dysport Is the Same as Botox
A lot of people confuse Dysport and Botox, and often assume that they are the exact same thing. Though both are injectable-based wrinkle relaxers that contain a purified form of botulinum toxin type A, their protein formulations are different.
Because of its unique protein structure, Dysport diffuses more easily throughout the skin after an injection. This means that the results can manifest quicker than results you would see with Botox, and providers often prefer it for larger treatment areas like the forehead.
Myth #2: Dysport Makes Your Face Look Frozen
This is one of the most common myths surrounding wrinkle relaxers. People often worry that Dysport will make their face look frozen or stiff. This “frozen” look is often the result of an inexperienced injector and a poorly executed treatment.
When it comes to wrinkle relaxers, not all providers are created equal. Choosing a provider who is qualified with years of experience ensures that your results are natural-looking. Dysport does not completely paralyze muscles, but relaxes them. This allows for natural facial expressions.
The providers at Harmonized have years of experience with wrinkle relaxers and always work to provide injections that help enhance your natural beauty, rather than overshadow it.
Myth #3: Dysport Isn’t Safe
There are people who think that Dysport (and other wrinkle relaxers) are unsafe because of misinformation surrounding botulinum toxins. Dysport is completely safe when administered by trained professionals like those at Harmonized Aesthetics.
Wrinkle relaxers like Dysport have been FDA-approved for cosmetic use and have a lengthy track record for safety. There is nearly zero risk of side effects from Dysport, with the most common being redness or swelling at the injection site.
Myth #4: Dysport Isn’t for Younger People
Many consider Dysport a treatment that is only for those who already have noticeable wrinkles or signs of aging. However, Dysport can be used as a preventive treatment for people in their 20s and 30s who want to help prevent and delay the onset of wrinkles and fine lines.
This is known as “preventive Dysport,” and has become increasingly popular in recent years. Your provider at Harmonized Aesthetics can customize your treatments with Dysport to meet your individual needs and desired results, regardless of your age.
