I had 36U of Dysport injected in my forehead, crows feet, glabella, as well as just above top lip & nasolabial folds 1 week ago. 3 days after the injection, my nose doubled in size. It feels numb and tingly, and is HUGE. I am devastated as it has changed my entire face, I look like a different person!
