Had Dysport Injected a Week Ago in my Forehead but my Eyebrows Got Raised in a Way I Have Permanent Wrinkles over Them? (photo)
Can I get extra shots to correct this ugly looking? How many units of dysport should be used to treat the glabella and the forehead?

Dysport close the eyebrow
Dysport is tricky to use close to the brow. The usual concern is the dropping down of the brow called 'brow ptosis' which does not look good and eye feel heavy. To avoid this situation doctors put the dyport higher up in the forehead but not close to the eyebrows. If a person is young then Dysport can be injected even close to the eyebrows.
Typical dose for me is Glabella 60units, Forehead 60units. If I am concerned about eyebrows dropping down then I use only 30units in the forehead and...

Dsyport and Forehead Wrinkles
The answer to this question is complicated. Yes, you can get additional units of Dysport injected above your eyebrow in the forehead muscle (frontalis) to correct the lines you are seeing now. That’s the good news, the bad news is you run the risk of dropping the level of your eyebrows when treating that close to the brow. From the look of it, the injector purposely left function above your brow so you have the ability to raise your eyebrows. At your next treatment, ask to retain more...

Abnormal Wrinkles
It appears that you have had too much Dysport centrally without any regard for the lateral aspects of the forehead. I prefer to use Botox and Dysport conservatively in the central forehead and use small amounts laterally as well. This allows for a natural, but smooth appearing forehead without the unnatural wrinkles above the brow laterally. Too much product placed laterally will make the brow drop and give a undesired result. I would return to your injector and...

Upper Face Muscle Balancing Critical To Excellent Dysport Results
The injection of neuro-modulators like dysport looks deceptively simple, but skill and techqnique are required to get an excellent result. A good result means softening of your wrinkles, good balance of the muscles of facial expression so that you do not have a peaked brow, deeper isolated wrinkles, brow drooping, or eyelid drooping. In your case, the frontalis muscle was overblocked centrally and not at all laterally making the lateral wrinkles more obvious. A touch of...

New wrinkles
First--to reassure--this will resolve as the effects of your treatment wear off. You won't get permanent wrinkles.
Some conservative treatment with botox/dyport can help with the appearance for now. Whenever I don't achieve the expected or ideal result with my patients, I do my best to fix the problem for free, and explain exactly what's going on. If you initially saw a plastic surgeon who you think is experienced, go back to her or him and they should be able to help improve...

How to Correct an Overtreated Forehead
Thank you for your question. It appears that quite a bit of Dysport was used to smooth your forehead. The only area which appears not to have been treated is the area above your outer eyebrow. When Dysport or Botox are injected into the forehead, the muscles in the area of injection are paralyzed. The outer brow tends to lift upwards giving a more dramatic arch. In your situation, your outer brow wrinkles can be softened with a tiny dose of Dysport into...

Dysport
This can be a common occurrence with both Botox and Dysport. Often times a conservative treatment just above the active areas can help to soften the area.

Prominent eyebrow wrinkles after Dysport injection
It's not uncommon to have increased prominence of wrinkles directly above your eyebrows after Botox/Dysport, especially when you have a hyperactive frontalis muscle (muscle that raises your eyebrows). Your injector was careful to leave some movement of your eyebrows to avoid brow ptosis (droopiness). 2.5 - 5 u of Dysport injected at the peak of the wrinkles should improve the appearance of those wrinkles tremendously while maintaining an attractive brow position.
