Had Xeomin 2 weeks ago and still no difference. Went back to Dr. Guy and she offered to do it over for half price. I'm not sure that's such a good deal...

Great review?

I'm had other procedures done by Dr. Guy and was very satisfied with the results..this time I was disappointed. She offered to do it again for half price...I'm not sure if that's a good deal or not.

After having had both Botox and Dysport multiple times throughout the past 6 years, Botox & Dysport began to grow less effective in lower dosages. I've responded very well to Xeomin. I think what's important is where it's injected and how much - after a doctor becomes familiar with how you respond to it, dosage can be adjusted. The other thing that should be discussed with the injector is how strong or paralyzed you would like that muscle to be. Sometimes injectors remain on the safe side to prevent the effects from looking unnatural. Sure, they can always use "more" to obtain a more dramatic result - however, after a certain volume is used there are higher chances of side effects - i.e.; eyes to "wide open", drooping eye lids, impaired speech if used around the mouth; and not to mention, using too much can cause migration to unwanted areas. May be a good idea to discuss with both your doctors how many units were used and keep notes on what makes you happy.

I'm sorry to hear you didn't see results. Have you used anything like this before (ie Botox or Dysport)?

Yes, I've had Botox several times before (with a different Dr.) with great results. Dr. Guy's office called on Thursday and asked if I wanted to do it over for "full" price and I refused. I'm going to wait a while and go back to my other Dr. for botox.

Yeah, I don't blame you for not wanting to pay for it again. It is a little odd you didn't see any results though. If it were me, I would call the previous doctor you had and find out how much Botox was used, then I would ask the same question of Dr. Guy's office. Perhaps different amounts were used???
