Used botox 12 yrs, excellent results. New Dr used dysport. After touch up due to dysport not working, brows dropped and look hooded. Doctor 3rd time injected 3 sights below the brows to elevate them & correct hooding. @ 48 hrs, brows elevated but only to drop again after injected with botox Should I return to this doctor or seek a second opinion. Lost faith in this plastic surgeon, obviously, not a clue on proper injection sights. $1000 later, dysport 0 on lines but hooded brows!

Answer: Droopy after Dysport
I'm sorry your first Dysport experience wasn't a positive one. Sometimes, even in the best of hands, things just don't always go as planned. Though Dysport is very similar to Botox in many ways, its reconstitution, dosage, spread and injection techniques(to some extent) do vary. Unfortunately, when the brow droops, the problem can easily be made worse and not better by 'chasing' it. At this point you would be better served to just do nothing and try to wait as patiently as you can for the Dysport to wear off. Hang in there.

Answer: Dysport droop
It sounds like your injector is not experienced enough with Dysport. There are several differences between Botox and Dysport. These include: placement, amount of units, amount of saline to mix them etc. Brows certainly can droop if one isn't careful. Look for someone with Dysport experience, it is a good product.
