Dysport® In Franklin & Murfreesboro
Smooth Expression Lines with Natural-Looking, Personalized Results
The best Dysport® results should make you look refreshed—not noticeably “done.”
At AWSkinCo+, Dysport treatments are personalized to your facial anatomy, muscle movement, and aesthetic goals. Rather than treating every patient with the same injection pattern or number of units, our experienced injectors carefully evaluate how your face moves to soften unwanted lines while preserving natural expression.
With two locations in Franklin and one in Murfreesboro, AWSkinCo+ provides advanced injectable treatments for patients throughout Middle Tennessee who want subtle, balanced facial rejuvenation with little to no downtime.
Whether you are beginning to notice expression lines, considering a neuromodulator for the first time, or exploring Dysport as an alternative to Botox, our goal is simple: help you look refreshed, rested, and like yourself.
What Is Dysport and How Does It Work?
Dysport is an injectable neuromodulator used to temporarily improve the appearance of expression lines caused by repeated muscle movement. Dysport is FDA-approved specifically for the temporary improvement of moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows, also known as glabellar lines.
Every time you frown, squint, smile, or raise your eyebrows, facial muscles contract beneath the skin. Over time, repeated movement can contribute to lines that become increasingly noticeable.
Dysport works by temporarily reducing activity in targeted muscles. As those muscles relax, the overlying skin appears smoother, and expression lines become less noticeable. The objective is not to eliminate facial movement. With thoughtful placement and dosing, neuromodulator treatment can soften unwanted lines while maintaining a natural, expressive appearance.
What Areas Can Dysport Treat?
Dysport is FDA-approved cosmetically for moderate-to-severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Like other neuromodulators, Dysport may also be used by experienced aesthetic injectors to address muscle activity in other areas of the face when clinically appropriate. Your AWSkinCo+ injector will determine whether Dysport is appropriate for your particular concern.
Depending on your anatomy and treatment goals, neuromodulator treatment may be considered for areas such as:
- Frown lines between the eyebrows
- Forehead lines
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Bunny lines along the nose
- Neck bands
- Certain lower-face expression lines
- Lip positioning
Because some cosmetic uses outside the glabellar area are considered off-label, your injector will discuss the recommended treatment, expected benefits, and alternatives with you before proceeding.
What Are the Benefits of Dysport?
Dysport offers a nonsurgical way to soften expression lines while maintaining the features and movement that make your face unique.
Benefits may include:
- Smoother frown and expression lines
- A more rested and refreshed appearance
- Personalized treatment based on facial anatomy and movement
- Quick treatment appointments
- Minimal downtime
- Natural-looking improvement
- Results that develop relatively quickly
- The ability to incorporate neuromodulator treatment into a broader facial rejuvenation plan
Dysport can also complement treatments such as dermal fillers, SkinVive, and other skin rejuvenation procedures when different aspects of facial aging are contributing to your concerns.
Dysport vs. Dermal Fillers: What’s the Difference?
Although Dysport and dermal fillers are both injectable treatments, they work in very different ways.
Dysport: addresses muscle movement. As a neuromodulator, it temporarily reduces targeted muscle activity contributing to dynamic expression lines.
Dermal fillers: address volume and contour. Depending on the product and treatment area, fillers can restore lost volume, enhance facial proportions, or improve the contours of areas such as the lips, cheeks, chin, and jawline.
Many patients benefit from one treatment without the other, while others achieve their goals through a combination of neuromodulators and facial fillers. Your AWSkinCo+ injector will help determine which treatment—or combination of treatments—best addresses what you actually see when you look in the mirror.
What to Expect During Your Dysport Appointment at AWSkinCo+
Every Dysport treatment begins with a personalized evaluation. Your injector will discuss the areas that concern you and evaluate your facial anatomy both at rest and while you make expressions. This helps identify which muscles are contributing to the lines you want to address and allows treatment to be planned accordingly.
Small amounts of Dysport are then precisely injected into the targeted muscles using a fine needle. Treatment is generally quick, and most patients can return to their normal daily routine afterward. You may notice temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising around injection sites following treatment. Your injection specialist will provide individualized aftercare instructions before you leave.
When Will I See My Results, and How Long Does Dysport Last?
Dysport doesn’t work instantaneously, but results can begin relatively quickly. According to the manufacturer, some patients in clinical studies noticed changes within 24 hours, while more than half saw improvement in their moderate-to-severe frown lines within two to three days. Individual onset varies.
As the targeted muscles respond to treatment, expression lines gradually soften and the treated area appears smoother. Clinical studies have demonstrated improvement lasting up to four months, although individual longevity varies. Your metabolism, muscle activity, treatment area, dosing, and response to previous neuromodulator treatment can all influence how long you enjoy your results.
Many patients schedule maintenance appointments periodically. Your AWSkinCo+ injector can recommend a treatment schedule based on your individual response.
Will Dysport Make Me Look Frozen?
It shouldn’t—and this is where injector experience and individualized treatment planning matter.
The purpose of Dysport is not to stop every muscle in your face from moving. The goal is to selectively reduce muscle activity contributing to unwanted expression lines while maintaining balance with the surrounding face.
Some patients prefer very subtle movement and refinement. Others want a stronger degree of wrinkle reduction. At AWSkinCo+, your treatment plan is based on your anatomy and preferences rather than an identical injection pattern for every patient.
Preventative Dysport: Do I Have to Wait Until I Have Wrinkles?
No. You don’t necessarily have to wait until expression lines are deeply established to discuss treatment with a wrinkle-relaxing injectable. Dynamic wrinkles develop in part through repeated muscle contraction. For some patients, reducing particularly strong or repetitive movement before lines become deeply etched into the skin may help maintain a smoother appearance over time.
However, not every younger patient needs Dysport simply because preventative treatment exists. A consultation allows your injector to evaluate your facial movement, existing lines, and goals and determine whether treatment makes sense for you now—or whether waiting is perfectly reasonable.
How Much Does Dysport Cost in Franklin & Murfreesboro?
Dysport pricing depends on the number of units used and the treatment plan recommended for your selected areas. Because muscle strength, facial anatomy, treatment areas, and desired degree of movement vary between patients, treatment requirements can vary as well.
AWSkinCo+ currently offers Dysport membership pricing of $10.25 per unit. Membership options begin at $99 per month and provide additional aesthetic treatment and skincare benefits depending on the selected membership. Your provider will review your recommended treatment and the related costs with you before proceeding. Payment plans are available for qualified patients.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hormone Optimization
How long does Dysport last?
Clinical studies support improvement in moderate-to-severe glabellar lines lasting up to four months. Individual longevity varies based on factors including metabolism, muscle activity, treatment area, dose, and previous treatment history.
How many units of Dysport will I need?
There is no universal number appropriate for every patient. The amount needed depends on your treatment area, facial anatomy, muscle activity, and desired result.
It's also important to understand that Dysport units and Botox units are not interchangeable. The FDA prescribing information specifically states that Dysport's potency units cannot be compared with or converted into units of another botulinum toxin product. Your injector will determine appropriate dosing for the product being used.
Does Dysport hurt, and is there downtime after treatment?
Dysport is administered with a fine needle, and treatment is generally completed quickly. You may feel a brief pinch with each injection. Little to no downtime is typically required, although temporary redness, swelling, tenderness, or bruising can occur around injection sites.
How quickly does Dysport start working?
Some patients in clinical studies noticed improvement within 24 hours, while more than half saw improvement within two to three days. Results vary, and your response may develop at a different pace.
Can Dysport help prevent wrinkles from getting deeper?
By temporarily reducing repetitive muscle movement, neuromodulator treatment may help limit the repeated folding that contributes to increasingly noticeable dynamic lines. Whether preventative Dysport is appropriate depends on your individual facial movement, anatomy, and goals.
Can Dysport be combined with filler or SkinVive?
Yes. Because these injectables accomplish different things, they may complement one another. Dysport addresses targeted muscle activity, dermal fillers address volume and contour, and SkinVive is designed to improve cheek skin smoothness and hydration. Your provider can create a treatment plan based on the combination of concerns you want to address.
What happens if I stop getting Dysport?
Dysport is temporary. If you discontinue treatment, targeted muscle activity gradually returns, and the expression lines you were treating can become visible again. You aren't required to continue treatment indefinitely.
Is Dysport or BOTOX® better?
Neither product is automatically better for every patient. Both are neuromodulators used to temporarily reduce targeted muscle activity, but they are different products and their dosing units are not interchangeable.
AWSkinCo+ offers both BOTOX and Dysport, allowing your injector to recommend an option based on your anatomy, aesthetic goals, treatment history, and response to previous neuromodulator treatments.
