Thanks for sharing. It likely represents swelling and or bruising from needle trauma. Get some rest, elevate the area, and if not better then see your injector! Best. Dr. Aldo

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to give you advice without examining you in person. However, your lumps can be due to swelling and bruising from the trauma of the needle and should have resolved by now. Also, the lumps may indicate that you had a reaction to one of the components of the Dysport. I recommend having a follow up with your injector for an evaluation. Best of Luck!

While this could represent bruising or swelling after injectables, I don't think this is the case and this is certainly not typical 24 hours after injection. You may have had a reaction to one of the components of the Dysport injection. I would followup with your injector in person for evaluation.

I would go back to your injector, Dysport is just ike Botox as far as injection site changes go. It could be a large volume injected but I would think that would be absorbed by now, it also could be from bleeding under the skin creating small clots that will resolve in time.however this should be shown to the injector.
