Dysport® in Chicago & Lincoln Park, IL

Tired of frown lines that make you look angry or tired even when you feel great? Those stubborn creases between your brows don’t have to stick around. With Dysport®, a popular neurotoxin injectable, you can soften the signs of aging and rediscover a refreshed, naturally youthful appearance—without surgery or downtime.

Before and After:

What Is Dysport?

Dysport is an FDA-approved neuromodulator used to temporarily smooth moderate-to-severe frown lines, crow’s feet, and forehead creases. It’s a safe, non-surgical injectable made from a purified form of botulinum toxin Type A (Abobotulinumtoxin A) that gently relaxes the facial muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles.

As one of our most popular neurotoxin injectables, Dysport offers a quick, effective way to refresh your look. It can also be used to balance facial asymmetry and soften tight neck bands.

How Does Dysport Work?

Dysport targets the underlying cause of expression lines—repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, and raising your brows over the years. Once injected, the formula blocks the nerve signals that tell those muscles to contract, allowing the skin above them to smooth out.

Your provider will identify your problem areas and place precise injections to achieve the look you want. Most patients notice softer, smoother skin within a few days.

Who Can Benefit from Dysport?

There’s no set age for wrinkles to appear, and there’s no set age to start Dysport. Drs. Nael and Shazel Gharbi treat patients in their 20s who want to prevent deeper lines, as well as patients in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond who want to turn back the clock. If you’re bothered by frown lines, crow’s feet, or forehead creases, Dysport may be right for you.
