Dysport is used to smooth out lines and wrinkles by paralyzing the muscles directly underneath the skin. When properly injected, there should not be any discomfort around the eyes. Consult a doctor to discuss your condition.
Bruising can result from Dysport injections. It's best to avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, Omega 3's, vitamin E, and other blood thinning agents a week prior to injections. Icing the area prior and after injections and using Arnica can be helpful in minimizing bruising.
Based on the dose you were given it would be uncommon for Dysport to already be wearing off. Typically neuromodulators' effects fade gradually over three to four months. I encourage you to return to your injector for an evaluation or if you prefer, visit another injector for a second opinion.
