If you're considering Dysport for wrinkle reduction or facial contouring, you may wonder:
How many units of Dysport do I need?
Since Dysport is measured differently than Botox, understanding proper dosing is essential for achieving natural, long-lasting results. At Marlux Aesthetics, we personalize each treatment to ensure optimal outcomes. Here’s everything you need to know about Dysport dosing.
Understanding Dysport Units
Dysport is formulated differently than Botox, meaning you’ll need more units of Dysport to achieve the same effect. The standard conversion is:
📌 1 Unit of Botox = 3 Units of DysportFor example, if you typically receive 20 units of Botox, you will need 60 units of Dysport for a similar effect.
