How long should I wait after getting Dysport until I try to get pregnant?

Hi Keren.  You do not need to wait to begin trying to get pregnant.  Although there are no studies on pregnancy and Dysport, most physicians will tell you that there is little or no risk of the product affecting your baby. 

With that said, no responsible physician would treat you at a time they knew you were pregnant because it is an unnecessary risk.  If you want the product to be completely gone from the body, then 4 months is enough time to wait.  Good luck.

Dear kernhib,


I would wait until after pregnancy before going for your next rejuvenation

There have not been any studies in pregnant humans, but I would not take that risk

If you decide to breastfeed, then you should wait until you are no longer breastfeeding as well

With that said, I hope your wishes are fulfilled

Thank you for your question. I would recommend getting the advise from your Ob/Gyn. Dysport lasts an average of 3-4 months. After the effects have completely worn off, I would not receive any further injections and this may be an appropriate time to start trying. I hope this helps.

When it comes to pregnancy we do not have enough information to answer most questions. To be safe you should wait for about 4 months after your last injection of dysport before you try to conceive.

In general, the Dysport will be localized to the area it was injected and will not migrate throughout the body. In general, it should pose no risk to a pregnancy. However, there is no documented research that proves there is no risk. With that being said, you may want to wait until the effects of Dysport wear off. This is 3 months on average, and may last longer. I would recommend speaking with your physician for any further advice. Thank you and I hope this helps!
