Dysport
Dysport in Scottsdale – Soft, Balanced Rejuvenation with a Surgeon-Led Approach
Dysport treatments at Aesthetica by Ashley Howarth MD are designed to soften lines, refine facial movement, and preserve your natural expression. Like Botox, Dysport is a neuromodulator that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles, but it’s known for its smoother spread and faster onset—making it an excellent option for areas like the forehead and crow’s feet, or for patients who metabolize product more quickly.
Performed by advanced aesthetic injector JiJi Yoo, PA-C, and overseen by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ashley Howarth, every Dysport treatment is customized based on facial anatomy, muscle strength, and long-term aesthetic goals. JiJi draws from her background at one of Manhattan’s most elite aesthetic clinics to deliver results that are subtle, tailored, and precisely controlled.
Whether you’re looking to soften dynamic wrinkles, address facial asymmetries, or explore a lighter, more diffusible alternative to Botox, Dysport offers refined, flexible results that maintain natural expression. With a board-certified plastic surgeon guiding your treatment plan, you can expect more than wrinkle reduction—you can expect injectables that support the way your face moves, rests, and ages.

Smooth Movement, Softer Lines
Dysport is known for its elegant diffusion and natural feel—making it especially effective for treating larger areas like the forehead or dynamic regions around the eyes. At Aesthetica by Ashley Howarth MD, we use Dysport as a nuanced tool for softening expression lines while preserving the character of your face. The result is smoother movement, less visible tension, and a rested appearance that still feels completely like you.
With every treatment, we consider not just where wrinkles appear—but how your facial muscles interact, how your features express, and how you age over time. Under the direction of Dr. Ashley Howarth and administered by JiJi Yoo, PA-C, Dysport is part of a broader approach to facial refinement: thoughtful, medically guided, and designed for balance.
The Right Treatment for You
Dysport at Aesthetica by Ashley Howarth MD is ideal for patients who want visible softening of expression lines with a slightly more diffused effect. Its lighter touch and faster onset make it a preferred choice for treating the forehead, glabella, and crow’s feet—especially in patients seeking a smoother appearance without sacrificing natural movement.
This treatment is particularly well suited for those who are new to neuromodulators, or for those who have developed resistance or diminishing response to Botox over time. Because Dysport spreads differently, it often requires fewer injections while delivering beautifully even results across larger facial zones.
Each treatment is customized based on muscle movement, symmetry, and long-term aesthetic goals. Administered by JiJi Yoo, PA-C and overseen by board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ashley Howarth, your results are subtle, balanced, and completely tailored to you—supported by clinical knowledge and a commitment to facial integrity.
Faster Onset for Quicker Results
Dysport is known for activating faster than most neuromodulators, with many patients seeing visible softening within 2 to 3 days. This makes it an ideal choice for those preparing for a special event or simply wanting faster feedback from treatment. Despite the early onset, results remain refined and balanced, with full effect appearing around the 7-day mark and lasting several months.
Soft, Even Spread for Full-Face Balance
Dysport diffuses more smoothly beneath the skin compared to other products, which makes it particularly effective for broad or highly expressive areas—like the forehead and glabella. This characteristic allows for fewer injection points with a more uniform softening of lines, offering a graceful, blended result that supports natural movement across the entire upper face.
Tailored Correction Without Freezing Expression
Rather than over-correcting or flattening facial movement, Dysport softens specific areas of strain while allowing the rest of the face to move freely. This subtle refinement helps reduce visible fatigue and tension without erasing the natural emotional nuance in your features. The result is not less expression—just less effort behind it.

FAQ ?
How is Dysport different from Botox?
Dysport and Botox are both FDA-approved neuromodulators made from botulinum toxin, used to temporarily relax facial muscles and soften dynamic wrinkles. The key difference lies in their formulation and how they diffuse once injected. Dysport has a lighter consistency and tends to spread more smoothly, which makes it especially effective for treating larger areas like the forehead. It also tends to onset slightly faster than Botox. While both products offer excellent results, the choice depends on your muscle pattern, goals, and how your body metabolizes the product over time.
How quickly will I see results with Dysport?
Dysport is known for its fast onset—many patients begin noticing visible softening within 2 to 3 days after treatment, with full results developing around day 7. This makes it a strong option for those seeking results on a shorter timeline or before an upcoming event. Like all neuromodulators, the effects are temporary and typically last about 3 to 4 months, depending on your metabolism and the areas treated.
How long do Dysport results last?
Most patients enjoy results for approximately 3 to 4 months, although individual response can vary depending on your metabolism, muscle strength, and treatment history. Some areas—like the forehead—may hold results longer, while more active zones may need touch-ups sooner. With regular maintenance, many patients find that their treatments last longer and require fewer units over time.
What areas can Dysport treat?
Dysport is commonly used to treat dynamic lines in the upper face, including the forehead, glabella (11s), and crow’s feet. It can also be used for more advanced applications such as lip flips, masseter slimming, chin dimpling, and neck band softening. Because of its smooth diffusion, it’s particularly effective for broad muscle groups where even distribution is key.
Will I still be able to express emotion?
Yes. At Aesthetica by Dr. Ashley Howarth, every treatment is performed with restraint and clinical insight to ensure that you maintain natural movement and facial expression. Our goal is never to erase who you are—but to soften the strain and static lines that come from repeated movement. Most patients find they still look like themselves—just more rested, balanced, and at ease.
Who performs Dysport injections at Aesthetica?
All Dysport treatments are administered by JiJi Yoo, PA-C, a board-certified Physician Assistant with advanced training in aesthetic injectables. JiJi brings years of experience from one of Manhattan’s most elite clinics and works under the direct guidance of board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ashley Howarth. This level of collaboration ensures that your treatment reflects both medical precision and aesthetic restraint.
Is there downtime after Dysport?
Downtime is minimal. You may experience slight redness, swelling, or pinpoint bumps at the injection sites, which usually subside within minutes to a few hours. Most patients return to work or normal activities immediately. You’ll be advised to avoid lying down, vigorous exercise, or rubbing the area for the first few hours following treatment.
Is Dysport better for certain patients than Botox?
Dysport is often preferred by patients who have developed a tolerance to Botox or who desire faster onset and broader diffusion. It’s especially helpful in areas like the forehead, where even softening across a wider region is beneficial. Your injector will evaluate your facial anatomy, movement patterns, and previous treatment history to determine which product is best suited to your needs.
