I had Dysport injected for my glabella lines and along my brows one week ago. There has been very little effect yet, I still have full movement in my eyebrows. I know that I could possibly see some improvement for another week still, but if I don't, am I able to request a switch to Botox at my follow up appointment? Can the two products be combined? Both Dysport and Botox have the same price per unit here, which confuses me, since I've now read (after my treatment) that Dysport needs more.

Answer: Dysport/Botox/Xeomin Results--takes 1-2 weeks Keep in mind, it can take 1-2 weeks for final results with Dysport. If you're unhappy with your final results, you can have a touch-up of Botox. Cost will vary. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Dysport and Botox Dysport typically takes effect in 2-4 days, so if you were injected one week ago the product should be working. At our practice, we recommend patients wait one week after Dysport injections before following up to ensure the product has had sufficient time to take effect. I would advise you to follow up with the injector and discuss why the Dysport has not given a good result. I would first review the dose to determine if an adequate treatment was given. If for any reason you are unhappy with the Dysport results, it is possible to inject the area with Botox even though Dysport was already administered. As always, speak with your provider to discuss expectations and outcomes before pursuing treatment.
