There is no contraindication to having Dysport injections if you have asthma. Make sure to tell your injector about your condition, however, and always see a board-certified dermatologist for any injectable neuromodulator treatments.
Hello, and thank you very much for the question.There are no contraindications associated with Dysport treatment for patients with asthma. However, it is important to disclose any medical conditions to your provider prior to having treatment. I would recommend seeking the advice of a board certified facial plastic surgeon, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist; each is a fantastic choice. I hope this information helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
Dysport and other neuromodulators are safe to use in patients with a history of asthma. You should always inform your physician of all medical problems and medication prior to any treatments.
You are wise to be asking whether your injectable treatments well affect underlying medical conditions. With regard to your question, dysport can be used safely in patients who have asthma.
Thanks for your question. Yes, it is okay to have the Dysport treatment. Please mention your asthma condition with your surgeon or injector beforehand.
Thank you for your question. Having asthma is not a contra-indication to receiving Botox or Dysport injections. The neurotoxins act to paralyze the muscle they are injected into. No systemic effects result when injected by a competent professional. I always recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon who does a high volume of injectables.
Neurotoxins like Dysport and Botox have their target at the junction between the motor nerve and the muscle it innervates. There are generally no systemic effects with these chemicals when used for cosmetic purposes. There should be no contraindication for use in a patient with asthma.
Use of Dysport in a patient with asthma is fine if confined to the face.Not recommended for the neck area with asthma.

Thank you for your question. Dysport is used to temporarily paralyze muscles and it is most commonly used to treat facial wrinkles. Dysport is not to be used as a filler. I recommend you follow up with your board certified plastic surgeon to discuss treatment options for fuller lips.
Botox and Dysport can both work well to help reduce the masseter muscle and soften the jawline. The ratio of units needed is not equal; usually, the ratio of Dysport to Botox is 2.5 or 3:1. You will need less units with Botox, so the cost should end up coming out about the same.

From the description you have provided it sounds as if you are experiencing some affect from the dysport. I would suggest following up with your injector to determine whether you have achieved as much improvement as would be expected. I would typically recommend waiting approximately 2 weeks...
While Dysport normally can start working as soon as 2-3 days, it can take up to 14 days for it to take full effect. If after 14 days, you still do not see any change, then definitely contact your injector to add more units.
