What Is Dysport?
Dysport is a cosmetic wrinkle treatment that improves dynamic lines and creases throughout your face, such as frown lines on the upper face. Like BOTOX®, Dysport is composed of a filtered strain of type A botulinum toxin to temporarily relax or freeze specific facial muscles. When these muscle groups are addressed, the common contractions that result in dynamic lines will be blocked, and the skin over the muscle will be softened. This allows you to frown, smile, and leave your face like that as long as you want without leading to dynamic wrinkles. It also provides rejuvenated outcomes that won't "freeze" your face. At Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa, we proudly offer Dysport injectable treatments to help patients in the West Palmdale, CA area appear rejuvenated and glowing.
How Is Dysport Performed?
After your initial exam and consultation, your Dysport treatments will be administered in one of our private treatment rooms. An anesthetic cream is usually not necessary since Dysport is provided using a fine needle that creates minimal discomfort, but it can be applied upon request. Once the treatment area has been sterilized, several injections will be made along the eyebrow area, followed by an ice pack to diminish bruising and swelling. Following your procedure at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa, you can resume your usual tasks, although you should try to avoid taxing activities for at least one day.
What Are the Benefits of Dysport?
With time, wrinkles make us appear older than we feel. Dysport treatments at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa can support our patients in rejuvenating their appearance and their confidence with many unique advantages, including:
- Target fine lines and wrinkles in the skin, particularly close to the glabellar ("11") line area
- Natural-looking, long-lasting improvements
- Build self-esteem and help you look like your best self again
- Provide sessions that are short and productive with no needed downtime following sessions
Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa Reviews
I am so happy that I went to Shandu Dermatology!Dr Harika Shandu is an excellent surgeon with outstanding attention to detail. Her stitchwork is so beautiful that it reminds me of fine embroidery on a silk cloth. She's that good!I had what looked like two pimples on my back, but they were just the tip of the iceberg. I heard a "snip snip" , it felt like a haircut, and when she was done, a non-cancerous cyst - the size of my thumb! - was removed from my back and placed in a medical jar. I was shocked! I had no idea!The second cyst was the size of a marble, and a third cyst, located on my left forearm, which I thought was a weird looking mole, but no, no, no - it was a cyst the size of a 1-inch ball bearing! My jaw dropped in disbelief.Because Dr Hakita Shandu did such an excellent job sewing me up, my wounds have closed completely now and there is no scarring. There is still some discoloration around the wounds, but I plan on buying the Post Care Silicone Gel when I go back next week for a follow-up appointment.I’m also seriously considering the monthly subscription for a hydro facial. It sounds wonderful and very relaxing.Dr Hakita Shandu is a very nice person with a gentle touch. I would strongly recommend Shandu Dermatology for any skin care needs. The entire staff is very nice, and they made me feel very much at ease. It’s like the tv show Cheers! - “where everyone knows your name”Thank you very much, Dr Hakita Shandu! You're the best!Morris Lee FeasterPalmdale, CA
Everyone is nice and welcoming and understanding. Michelle is so awesome, I been going to her for years. Honestly they are all amazing people
Doctors and Staff and Products are the Best in the Valley! Been a Patient well over 25yrs ! Highly recommend Dr Sandhu Dermatologist
The girls are terrified, very professional
I had my procedure today with Ashley and Dr. Sandhu, I felt NOTHING. Not even the syringe that Ashley used to numb me before the full removal of my mole. Ashley made sure I was comfortable and was able to talk me through the prep process. Dr. Sandhu was so quick with the procedure I couldn’t even think to feel anything. I am still going to get a biopsy and 6 week follow up. But I am highly satisfied with the progress. I did peak under my bandaid and I’m glad to no longer see an abnormal mole! Thank you Dr. Sandhu and team!_______________________________________________I had my first mole check-up with Dr. Sandhu and Amanda, and I was truly impressed by the entire experience. From start to finish, the appointment process was smooth and easy. Both Dr. Sandhu and Amanda were professional, kind, and extremely knowledgeable, which helped put me at ease right away.Unfortunately, the mole in question appeared abnormal, so I have a follow-up appointment scheduled for a shave and biopsy. While I’m definitely hoping and praying for a benign result, I feel confident knowing I’m in such capable hands.As a cash patient, I also really appreciated the clear and reasonable pricing—no surprises, just honest care. I’m very grateful for their support and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for attentive and thorough dermatologic care.

Am I a Candidate for Dysport?
Dysport is ideal for those looking for a nonsurgical procedure to improve moderate to severe vertical frown (glabellar) lines that appear between the eyebrows. Because dynamic lines are created by repetitive use, they can develop at any age and cause you to appear sad, mad, or tired. Dysport is a convenient, effective treatment that treats dynamic lines without leaving you with a "frozen" appearance. Because this product expands to treat a group of wrinkles, it's also an option to treat wrinkles around your eyes.
Dysport FAQ
How much does Dysport cost?
Your price for Dysport is based on the amount of formula required and the type of results you want to achieve. During your consultation, your provider will create your custom Dysport treatment plan so they can discuss pricing. Ask about our current injectable treatment specials at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa and the different types of payment we accept.
What's the difference between Dysport and BOTOX?
Both Dysport and BOTOX are injections that correct dynamic lines. Results from Dysport typically are seen faster than BOTOX. Also, many patients have found that Dysport outcomes tend to last longer than other wrinkle relaxer products. During your pre-treatment consultation, your provider will help you determine which formula is recommended for your needs.
Should I get Dysport or a dermal filler?
Many people aren't aware of the different uses of injectable wrinkle relaxers, like Dysport and cosmetic dermal fillers. A wrinkle relaxer addresses dynamic wrinkles by temporarily preventing certain facial expressions. Injectable fillers, on the other hand, are placed under the top layer of the skin to soften the skin, restore lost volume, and boost collagen production. During your initial consultation, Dr. Sandhu will ask about your cosmetic goals to help idenfity whether a wrinkle relaxer, a dermal filler, or a blend of both will provide your ideal results.
Relax and Refresh
If you want a nonsurgical way to enhance your skin by targeting dynamic wrinkles, a Dysport injectable wrinkle relaxer might be an ideal treatment. During your consultation, we will inform you about Dysport and other available treatments and design a customized treatment plan that fits your goals. We welcome you to call Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa with locations in West Palmdale, Ridgecrest, and Tehachapi, CA to hear more about our advanced treatments and to schedule an appointment today.

What to Expect After Dysport
After a Dysport session, you may see mild swelling and redness at and around the injection sites, but this generally will disappear within a few days. We recommend that you sleep upright for at least one night and still apply a cold compress if needed. Results are usually noticeable within 1 – 3 days as the appearance of your frown lines is decreased for a softer, youthful look. These results usually last for around 3 – 4 months, and supplemental injections can be scheduled at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa in West Palmdale, CA, to maintain your outcomes.
