Dysport wearing off too soon?

All neurotoxins (Botox, Dysport and Xeomin) should last between 3 and 4 months. In addition, if injected correctly, these three medications should yield similar, if not the same, results. It's unusual for the effects to only last a month. I'd recommend returning to the physician who performed the injection and asking their opinion. To answer your question:The most common reasons for an injection to be less effective or not last the full 3-4 months is using neurotoxins that have been allowed to sit too long in between the time they were reconstituted and the time they were injected or not injecting enough neurotoxin. If you have additional wrinkles that need to be treated, you most likely need more neurotoxin. I hope this helps!Good luck,Dr. Harmych

Thank you for your question. Your result duration will depend largely on the treatment pattern and the dosing that was used. It is very easy to make either a Dysport or Botox treatment appear to last a very short amount of time or last longer.  If you're concerned that your injector is being too conservative, then I would seek a more experienced injector to help meet your goals.

Dysport and Botox last approximately 12 weeks.  It may be that the injector was too conservative in the amount given.  When getting a product for the first time many injectors will go by experience combined with standard dosage amounts.  It may be that you require a bit more.  I would recommend a visit with your doctor to get their opinion on what may have happened and to discuss solutions.
