Could it take more than 14 days for Dysport to get relief on my masseters?

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Beautifulonce,

I am Sarah, a medical assistant at Aesthetic Skin MD with Dr. Anil Shah in Chicago! If you are still experiencing extreme jaw pain and interested in receiving masseter injections, I would highly recommend it. We see patients almost on the daily for this type of treatment and see great results for pain or even just for aesthetic purposes. Dysport starts to settle in about two to four days after injections, but for its full effects it may take up to 2 weeks.

Hi @Beautifulonce! It is absolutely possible for it to take up to 14 days for Dysport to kick in. That being said, 15 units of Dysport to each masseter is not enough to relax the masseter muscle. I typically use 20-40 units of Botox to each masseter. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications.
