Dysport

Unfortunately this can occur with all injections whether it is Dysport, Botox, or Xeomin. It may be that the Dysport was placed incorrectly. As long as the Dysport is placed correctly, this should not occur again.

Eyelid droop after Dysport

Your left eyelid is heavier because the Dysport paralyzed the portion of your forehead muscle that raises the eyebrow (and eyelid). It may be possible to temporarily improve the situation until the Dysport wears off by putting a little Dysport at the tail of the L eyebrow to weaken the muscle that pulls your forehead down. One could also place filler into the L eyebrow to raise and lift it a little.

Don't blame dysport

All injections, whether filler, botox, dysport, or the new xeomin, are technique dependant. I would recommend waiting this out as it will resolve. Also I would recommend further treatments with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has experience with injectables.

Dysport is not the culprit of the eyebrow droop, it's your injector

I hate to see/hear about people with results from Dysport that they are unhappy with and vow to never have it again. It has nothing to do with the Dysport and all to do with the injector. Please give it another chance with a more experienced provider. Unfortunately, there are more and more people injecting Dysport with very little training and experience. I have been using it since the day it was approved by the FDA. What you have is eyebrow ptosis related to... more

Dysport for Glabella - Poor Result - Options

Unfortunately it appears that you were injected improperly and rather than having an elevated eyebrow, you have been left with a heavy, drooping eyebrow. The heaviness and drooping of the eyebrow will likely wear off, but it may take a good few months before you are satisfied. I definitely would not have anyone inject more Dysport into the areas unless it is a very experienced injector who knows how to inject to improve/reverse the heaviness of the brow. I am sorry for your frustrating... more

You have limited options.

If you do not want any more botulinum toxin treatment, then your best option is to ignore the situation. It will eventually wear off. This might take 2 to 4 months. Often it is possible to have a balancing treatment but obviously you would not want your injecting physician to do this service as they have just demonstrated that they basically don't know what they are doing.

Do not get more Dysport

Your eye drop is based on the site and amount of Dysport that was injected, most likely. When injecting the frontalis muscle the eyebrow itself can drop if the injection wasn't done properly for you. Usually people who experience this do not have it last for the entire 3-4 months, and it will begin to wear off sooner than that. While some very experienced injectors can fix this with some additional small amounts injected to raise the outer portion of the eyebrow, based on the fact that you... more

Forehead muscle [frontalis]

What has happened is that the muscle responsible for elevating the eyebrow [frontalis muscle in the forehead] has been weakened more so on the left side. It is possible to get the left brow slightly higher with a very directed injection just underneath the outside corner of the eyebrow, but you would need an experienced injector.

Dysport bad result

The bad result is not related to the drug. It is related to the experience , or lack of, of the injector. Your brow has drooped some. If the right muscles were injected as well then there is nothing to do but wait till the effect of dysport subside. If the frown muscles are still functional and the lateral brow was not injected further manipulation of these muscles may work. Best is not to do anything.
