Timeframe to See Results of Dysport

Dysport, which is an alternative to Botox, has different effects on different individuals. This is due to physiological differences. The strength of your muscles can certainly be a variable in the outcome. And this may warrant additional quantities at the discretion of your physician. Results can take up to a week to two weeks.

Exercise after Botox or Dysport

When to work out after Dysport injections

I tell my patients they are free to do anything they choose 1 1/2 hours after injection with a neurotoxin such as Dysport, Botox or Xeomin. Even lying down immediately after the injection should not have any adverse effects. Within 20 to 90 minutes after neurotoxins such as Botox, Dysport and Xeomin are injected, botulinum neurotoxin type A can be detected inside the motor nerve endings. Therefore the muscles and nerve endings take up the neurotoxin very quickly before it can spread far from... more

This is best answered by the doctor who injected you.

I advise my patients to wait 24 hours before working out. My concern is that working out immediately after a treatment increase the risk of bruising. Even my gymorexic patients can wait 24 hours before working out (most of them anyway).

Workout after dysport

Since this was asked five days ago, I guess that you can get on with your workout. I usually tell patients not to lie down or vacuum for four hours. That is my only restriction and I am not sure how much that even matters. Jo H
