Meet Dr. Fatemeh Esfahani: Dysport Expert
Dr. Fatemeh Esfahani, MD, specializes in personalized Dysport treatments at Atossa Medical Spa.

What is Dysport?
Dysport is a wrinkle-relaxing injectable, similar to Botox, that helps smooth lines caused by everyday facial expressions. Many people know the name Botox first, but Dysport works in a similar way and is used for the same types of concerns, including frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. Atossa Medical Spa customizes each treatment for natural-looking results.
Dysport vs. Botox
Dysport and Botox are both wrinkle-relaxing injectables.
Atossa Medical Spa offers Dysport because of its unique advantages. Dysport can create smooth, natural-looking results and is often chosen for how well it treats common expression lines, including frown lines, forehead lines, and crow’s feet. It helps refresh your appearance without making you look overdone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dysport
Dysport is a prescription injection (abobotulinumtoxinA) used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe wrinkles. Like Botox, it is a neuromodulator that works by relaxing the specific muscles that cause expression lines, such as frown lines and forehead creases.
Generally, yes. While the total cost depends on your specific goals, Dysport is often more affordable than Botox on a per-treatment basis.
- Price Per Unit: Dysport typically costs significantly less per unit (around $4–$8) compared to Botox ($12–$20).
- The “Unit” Catch: You do need more units of Dysport to get the same effect as Botox (the ratio is roughly 3:1), but even with the higher unit count, the total session price often comes out lower.
Based on the treatment map used at Atossa Medical Spa, Dysport can address a wide variety of concerns across the face and neck:
- Upper Face: Frown lines (the “11s”), horizontal forehead lines, and brow lifts.
- Eyes & Nose: Crow’s feet and “bunny lines” on the bridge of the nose.
- Lower Face: Vertical lip lines, gummy smiles (lip pop), and lifting the corners of the mouth (smile lift).
- Jaw & Neck: Jawline reshaping (masseter reduction for a slimmer face), dimpled chins, and smoothing horizontal neck lines or platysmal bands.
Most people return to their normal routine immediately, though you might have tiny “mosquito bite” bumps at the injection site for an hour or two. Common side effects can include a temporary headache, slight swelling, or redness.
Pro Tip: Dysport contains a trace amount of cow’s milk protein. If you have a known milk allergy, be sure to mention it during your consultation so Dr. Esfahani can determine the best alternative for you.
