Botox seems to work better. For me, it lasts for 3 months. I gave Dysport a try and it lasted for only 6 weeks. I tried it again but with a different technician and in greater quantity and again it lasted for only 6 weeks. Very disappointed! I wanted Dysport to work for me because the onset is much quicker. For me, Botox takes 10+ days to see the effects. Dysport takes about 3 days. I love the result I get with Dysport but with it lasting for only 6 weeks, I'm definitely going back to Botox.
Do you mind if I ask where you got your Botox done? I just had Botox 5 days ago to my crow's feet and have experienced the exact same side effects as you(chipmunk look, puffiness under the eyes, creping). I look 10X worse than before. I have been receiving Botox for many years and have never had this problem before. This last time I had it done, I went to a different doctor, one who was closer to work. Bad bad decision. From the responses you have received, it sounds as though I will have to wait for it to wear off which I am highly distraught about. What a nightmare :(
