I had a Dysport treatment 7 days ago without any results. I am a 37 year old male and this was my first injection. I keep reading that results are supposed to happen within the first 48 hrs. I have strong corrugator muscles, would this slow the results?
Answer: Dysport onset of action In my experience Dysport has a quicker onset of action than Botox more in the 2 day range than in the 7 day range. However I give it 7 - 10 days for both to see the full result. It also appears that Dysport diffuses more evenly and gives a smoother effect, and in my experience Dysport lasts somewhat longer than Botox, up to a month longer. Patients often will build up a tolerance or resistance to Botox and this does not seem to happen with Dysport. Patients in my practice have a much higher satisfaction with Dysport than with Botox, and Dysport has become my neurotoxin of choice.

Answer: How long will it take to see results from Dysport Thank you for your question. I offer both Dysport and Botox in my practice and I can tell you that some patients might take up to 10 days to see the results of their treatment from either of these products. If you don't see the results you want at that point, I would schedule a follow-up with your injector to see whether you might need a bit more Dysport. It is common for men to require a higher dose due to the stronger facial muscles.

Answer: Dysport Results- Men It usually takes patients up to 1 to 2 weeks to see the full result of Dysport. If you still do not see results after this time, I recommend seeing your provider. Receiving a higher dosage of Dysport may help to address the issue of the stronger muscles in your face, which is usual for men.

Answer: Give it 2 weeks Men have bigger muscles and typically require more units than women. I am not sure how many units that you had, but after two weeks, it may solve the problem to add a few more units then.

Answer: Onset of Dysport The onset of Dysport is typically 2-3 days, with final results evident around 10 days post treatment. I recommend that patients follow up 10-14 days post injection to determine if injections have been effective and if any touch up treatment is required. If you do not see the elimination of muscle motion that you desire, it is most likely that more product is required. Dysport simply softens muscle motion and thus a conversation with your provider about additional treatments such as laser, skin care or filler might be beneficial to help you achieve your goals.

Answer: It can depend on who did your injections Please watch the video below. I try to explain some key aspects of the technicalities of using or getting botox. It really does make a difference who is injecting, how much and where it is injected. It is one of those treatments that unfortunately has become a commodity and it really requires a bit more of an artistic finesse approach ini my mind. We use the neuromodulators to target and soften the muscle groups without giving that frozen look. Hope this helps, Best of luck, DrC
