I had dysport injected into my frown lines, and crows feet. On day 2 I had terrible dry eyes, but are getting better with the help of some basic dry-eye eyedrops.. I'm now into day 8 after the injections. The last couple of days I have been experiencing what I can only describe as heavy eyelids. To look at them, they look about the same, but feel as though I've not slept for days. It feels very uncomfortable. Will this pass? Do I have to wait for the full 3-4 months for the Dysport to go?
