It's said that one's face returns to 'normal' once the effects of botox wear off. Is normal the same as 'how it was before'? As i presume if you freeze some muscles, others are going to have to over-compensate in the duration. Am most concerned about the eyes if the upper forehead and '11' frown lines are treated. Would that have lasting effect if you only have botox (Dysport) treatment once? Thank you-

Answer: What happens if you stop Botox treatment? Thanks for your question. You can discontinue Botox treatment at any time. If you do so, yes, the treated area will return to the way it looked before you had Botox treatment. Botox results tend to last anywhere from 3-4 months. As for your other muscles compensating for the areas where you received Botox treatment, yes, this is a possibility, however with an experienced and trained nurse injector who has an excellent grasp of facial anatomy, this can definitely be avoided. It's always best to receive your injections at a practice run by a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist. If you have any further questions or concerns about Botox treatment, I highly recommend that you have an in person consultation with your plastic surgeon or Botox provider.

Answer: Neurotoxins Neurotoxins such as Botox and Dysport have only temporary effects when used to treat wrinkles. The product is in full effect two weeks after treatment and the results will gradually wear off over 3 to 4 months. The areas injected will appear as they did prior to treatment once the treatment wears off.
