I go to a top Orange County, CA dermatologist. Botox has stopped working around my eyes. We switched to Dysport and it works fine. I recently tried botox in my platysmal bands (I was a perfect candidate) but it has done nothing.... been 2.5 weeks. 16 units for each band. 2 running up center of neck.
