Dysport — Neurotoxin Injections

Dysport neurotoxin injections at PURE Medical Spa, Chicago — an alternative neurotoxin to Botox that spreads slightly more broadly and can achieve a softer, more natural result for larger surface areas like the forehead. Standard rate $8.99/unit with new-client pricing of $2.99 for the first 30 units. Injected by physician Dr. Danuta Kowalski MD and RN-level nurse injectors at the Gold Coast clinic.

PURE Medical Spa offers Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA) as an alternative or complement to Botox at its Gold Coast Chicago clinic at 875 N Dearborn Street. Dysport is a botulinum toxin type A formulation, like Botox, but differs in molecular weight and diffusion characteristics. Dysport tends to spread slightly more broadly from the injection point, which can be advantageous when treating large surface areas — such as broad foreheads — where a more diffuse effect is desirable, but requires careful placement near small muscles where precision is paramount. Dysport's unit system is not equivalent to Botox: approximately 2.5–3 Dysport units are required to achieve a comparable effect to 1 Botox unit. Onset of effect may be slightly faster with Dysport (sometimes 1–2 days earlier), and duration is comparable at 3–4 months. PURE's pricing for Dysport is $8.99/unit at the standard rate. New clients benefit from an introductory promotional rate of $2.99 for the first 30 units, making a standard initial treatment accessible for first-time visitors comparing the two neurotoxins. Common treatment indications are identical to Botox: forehead lines, glabellar frown lines, crow's feet, lip lines, neck bands, brow arch, and chin dimpling. The PURE injector team — led by Dr. Kowalski MD with CCRN and RN-level injectors — manages neurotoxin selection in consultation with each client, taking into account the treatment area, desired outcome, prior neurotoxin history, and personal preference. Both Botox and Dysport results typically become visible within 3–7 days and peak around 14 days post-injection.
