What is the difference between Botox and Dysport?

Question:

What is the difference between Botox and Dysport? How would you choose which brand is best for me?

Answer:

Both Botox and Dysport are neurotoxins that block the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, thereby inhibiting motor function. This results in temporary paralysis of the muscle, which in the face, reduces wrinkles. I currently use both Botox and Dysport in my practice.
