Answer: Dropped Brow After Dysport
Hi Ninette. Sorry to hear about the negative experience. Although ptosis (sagging eyelids or brows) is a potential side effect of Dysport injections, it is not common for experienced injectors.
The good news is that the remedial treatment it sounds like you had may help if it was done correctly. If you do not get the results you are looking for, check the link below and call our office as we are in Los Angeles and would be happy to offer a free consultation.

Answer: You live in Los Angeles so you could consider seeing me for a counter treatment.
Generally this services that drop the forehead weaken the frontalis muscle. This paralysis leads to unopposed action by the eyebrow depressors. These muscles are hard to treat selectively using standard methods. I have develop a patent method call microdroplet botulinum toxin (also call micro brow lift) that allow selective treatment of just the eyebrow depressors. For a counter treatment, I generally advise getting out a few weeks from the original treatment and then having counter treatment. Over the course of time, the forehead treatment will wear off and the counter treatment will have a stronger effect. In the future, avoid having this type of disabling service.

Answer: Dysport typically lasts about 3-4 months. Thank you for your question. Brow ptosis can occur when an injector uses to high of a dose when treating the forehead muscles or when the forehead is injected too low. Dysport typically lasts about 3-4 months. I recommend following-up with your injector to discuss your concerns as it may be possible to raise your brow with touch-up Dysport. Best of luck!

Answer: Return visit to fix eyelids
The first thing at you need to do is go back to the physicians office that did the procedure and show them your concerns. Any time that you receive these medications for frown lines, e number one side effect is lid ptosis, which is the dropping of the lid. If you had your forehead done as well as your crows feet, it may be difficult to fix. There are eye drops that can help with lid ptosis, but the only real fix may be with time, when the dysport wears off.

Answer: Drooping brows after Dysport
Greetings~
You do not have to have droopy or flat brows in order to treat horizontal forehead lines. Technique and dosage are very important when injecting the forehead for just this reason so it is important to find an injector with a great deal of experience. The newest injections that were done may help to weaken your natural brow depressors and give you a bit of a lift until the forehead wears off and returns to normal. The best remedy now is time. There is nothing more to counteract the effects of the Dysport.
Good luck and hang in there~
