I got dysport for cosmetic reasons and I had a terrible effect. Droopy eyelids, swollen brows, weakness, etc... And now this terrible rash on the injection sights. I went to a dermatologist that advertised botox, only when I got there he mentioned he didn't carry it, but that Dysport was just as good and more affordable...$400 later and I have this... It did not last 6 weeks despite 100 units... Help please...

Dypsort effects will fade gradually, typically lasting about three to four months. It may be somewhat earlier for you since you did not have a standard dose, but in any case it is temporary and it will wear off. I've included a video on neuromodulators like Dysport that I hope you find helpful.
The effects and longevity of Dysport varies somewhat between patients. The product will wear off gradually as it is metabolized. Typically the treatment effects last three to four months. At six weeks post treatment it is likely you'll begin to see a little more movement each week.
Your treatment dosing was too conservative to treat those areas which may have contributed to the results not lasting longer. It's important to remember that Dysport units are not equal to Botox units. An approximate relation is three units of Dysport equates to one unit of Botox.
