I'm considering getting Dysport but I want to know what the typical recovery is like. Is a couple of hours enough? Or will there be bruising or swelling that will require a longer downtime?
Answer: Dysport Recovery Recovery after Dysport injections is simple. Most patients will have very little to no bruising. Some small amount of swelling will be apparent immediately after the injections, but this goes away within just a few minutes in almost all patients. My patients are instructed to refrain from physical activity for 3-4 hours after injections, and to avoid inverting the head and rubbing or massaging the face until the next day. Otherwise, patients can resume their normal activities and gently re-apply any makeup immediately after the injections. All the best,

Answer: Dysport Recovery After any injection it is common to have redness and pinpoint swelling/bleeding at the injection site. Sometimes patients will also experience bruising. These side-effects can be reduced if patients discontinue the use of blood thinning medications and supplements 3-4 days prior to injections. I apply arnica topically post-procedure for my patients. I also ask patients to avoid laying down for several hours post-injection and to avoid contracting the muscles where the product was injected. Other day to day activities can be resumed immediately.

Answer: No Down-time Recovery with Dysport Like the more well known Botox® brand,Dysport® is an injectable used to temporarily improve the look of frown lines without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas. Over time, the use of muscles above and between the eyebrows cause wrinkles. Injecting Dysport® into these areas, blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. The result is temporary softening or elimination of visible wrinkles/lines.Besides the visible wanted effects of the treatment, little swelling or bruising should be apparent after a treatment.#Dysporttreatments #Dysportrecovery #Dysporttreatments

Answer: Easy Recovery from Dysport .Injecting Dysport® blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. The result is temporary softening or elimination of visible wrinkles/lines.The best way to avoid the side effects of bruising and swelling is to avoid aspirin, ibuprofen or Omega-3s for several days before your treatment. We also recommend a homeopathic oral tablet, Arnica, to help reduce the degree and length of time of bruising.#Dysporttreatslines #Dysportrecovery #Dysporttreatments

Answer: Downtime for Dysport There really isn't any recovery time for Dysport. I ask my patients to ice the areas we inject and avoid exercising the day of the injection to minimize swelling. Much like Botox, Dysport is administered using a similar technique. As such, the risk of bruising and swelling should be the same as a previous Botox injection.If this is your first time getting Dysport, the vast majority of patients have mild redness and swelling for 2-6 hours. Bruising is very rare, but if you do get a bruise, it is usually pinpoint in nature.
