Would Dysport Have Any Adverse Effect on Pregnancy?
What if a patient gets pregnant while Dysport is still in her system? Do patients need to be on contraceptives for any period of time after getting a Dysport injection?

Dysport and Pregnancy
Neither Dysport nor Botox is recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Many women have gotten pregnant subsequent to a treatment, and no report adverse effects on the fetus or baby have been reported. However, since there are no published studies testing Botulinum Toxin A on pregnant nor breast feeding women, we do not have a complete understanding of the effects on the fetus or on the baby is unknown. It is not worth the risk.

Neither Dysport nor Botox is recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Toughing it out for a few months is best in order to provide the safest environment for baby.

Dysport is great but not recommended during pregnancy

However since there are no published studies regarding the safety of the fetus, it is best not to take the chance. Regarding contraceptives after treatment, that is a personal choice. Safety is what matters so if you are trying to get pregnant we...

Dysport and pregnancy
I would not do Dysport or Botox if you were pregnant. If you are trying to get pregnant you may want to avoid these neuromodulators. If you get pregnant you will probably be fine. Many women have gotten pregnant after injections and have been fine. But why take any chances, if you are trying to get pregnant. After an injection Dysport stays locally where placed and does not go through the body. It should be out of your system in 3-6 months.

I would not advise these injections during pregnancy
I am unaware of any reports one way or another but the safe approach is ALWAYS the best. Consequently, I cannot advise this treatment while pregnant. In terms of contraception, the best choice would be to talk to your OB-Gyn but I suspect that if you were planning to get pregnant the advice would be the same
That being stated I do not typically advise my patients to use contraceptives after the injections nor have I seen any literature or heard any reports that doing so would be the...
