Day 6 after dysport to glabellar lines, I see a huge improvement with the lines fading but when I frown I still see muscles movement and lines ...is that normal?
Answer: Post Dysport Treatment
Thank you for your question. I would wait a full 2 weeks and get re-evaluated by your injector. You may just need more Dysport. For a natural look, often you will see the lines become softened, while still having facial expression. Be certain to be under the supervision of a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with expertise in injectables for the safest and most effective treatments. I hope this helps.

Answer: Dysport and frown lines Thank you for your question. The frown lines between the brows can be address two different ways: 1) Botox or Dysport can be used to soften the deepening of the frown lines when making a frown expression. The treatment may even soften the lines that are present at rest. The effects typically last 3-4 months depending on the dose. I generally use between 15-40 units of Botox (30-120 units of Dysport) in the frown area depending on the strength of the muscle and the degree of frown reduction we are trying to achieve. 2) Restylane or Juvederm can be used to soften the frown lines that are present even when you don't make an expression. This can last for a year or more when used in conjuction with Botox. For someone who has concerns with both the static lines (without expression) and the dynamic lines (with expression), then using both products would work well together. I often find that patients who return after a Botox or Dysport treatment in the frown areas complaining it didn't work, is due to the confusion between the static and dynamic frown lines. They continue to see the static lines even though the dynamic lines have softened considerably. If you are still seeing muscle movement and a deepening of the frown lines, then you may need some additional Dysport.

Answer: Why do I still see lines following Dysport injections?
One of the most common issues that can occur with Dysport and Botox when they are administered improperly is an expressionless appearance following the treatment. This can happen if too much is injected or if poor technique is used.
In general, additional side effects from Dysport injections may include the following:
1) Bruising
2) Headaches
3) Eyelid ptosis
4) Minor swelling
Duration and onset of side effects can vary from patient to patient, but generally will subside over a few weeks to months. If you still see lines, your treatment may have been on the conservative side and you may benefit from a touch up. An in-person exam would really be necessary to give you additional advice. I would recommend speaking with the individual who performed your injections. Thanks and good luck!

Answer: Six days post Dysport and still frowning?
Typically, Dysport has a very quick onset of action compared to Botox and Xeomin. I agree that it is possible that you will need a touch up.
