30 units of Dysport in my forehead. How long for the brow ptosis to wear off?

Thank you for your question, kitkat213! Dysport will last about 3-4 months typically. Around 3 months you should begin to see your brows return to normal. Good luck!

Dysport results can last up to 3-4 months, depending on patients. As time passes, you may feel that the heaviness on your brows and forehead should begin to subside within the second to third week. Choosing the appropriate dose and placement of injections varies from patient to patient which is why it is very important to choose a well trained provider specifically a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. You might to wait at least 2 weeks and go in to see your prior injector and voice your concerns to them. Good Luck. Dr. Anil Shah MD FACS 

I'm sorry to hear of the issues you are having from your Dysport treatment. The drooping should begin to improve after about 6 weeks with complete resolution by 3-4 months. I encourage you to return to your injector for an evaluation so that any future adjustments can be made.

Hi There,
Dysport can be an effective way to decrease forehead wrinkles. 60 units is commonly used in that area of the face. Dysport can take effect as quickly as 2-5 days, but often takes a full 2 weeks to achieve its full effect. Dysport typically lasts 3-4 months, but this varies patient to patient. Some see effects wear off in 2 months, where as others see effects last as long as 6 months. In some patients who develop brow ptosis after forehead injection, the forehead and brow muscles may compensate and help raise the brows slightly in the first month after injection. However, brow ptosis can last as long as the dysport lasts in the forehead, which could be 3-4 months. I would recommend touching base with your injector to discuss this further.
Hope that helps!

Yes, 60 units is a lot.  It is appropriate in some patients, though 25 units is a more typical dose.  What are your options?1. Do nothing.  The Dysport will wear off.  Although the muscle-weakening effects will last about 3 to 4 months, the drooping will probably improve within 6 weeks.  2. Add Botox or Dysport to the glabella (between the eyes) and possibly the crows feet.  Injecting these muscles tends to elevate the brows, counteracting some of the adverse effects of the Dysport in the forehead.

Did you have your glabellar (frown) treated at the same time as your forehead? We recommend treating the glabellar when treating the forehead as it helps to provide a lift and reduces the risk of drooping.
We would recommend you return to the clinic where you had your treatment as there are some techniques which can help reduce a ptosis. 
Warm Regards,

Hi kitkat213, thank you for your question. I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with Dysport. The effects of Dysport typically last 3 months on average. However, you may notice the brow ptosis wearing off a little sooner than that, possibly 6 weeks depending on the dosage. We've created a video discussing Botox/Dysport and how they work, I hope you find this helpful in your research. 

Thank you for your question. Dysport results can last up to 6 months. That being said, as time passes, the heaviness you feel in your brow and forhead should begin to subside. Choosing the appropriate dose and placement of injections varies from patient to patient which is why it is very important to choose a well trained provider such as a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dermatologist or one of their designees.
