Hi, I am 30 years old and tried for the first time Dysport then moved to Botox for my glabella lines. I have been at it for the past three months waiting 14 days every time I've gotten injected no luck!!!!! why??? they are saying in rare cases people are just immune to the toxins...of course me! Now they are suggesting fillers. Please suggestions, I'm frustrated and now a little scared Thank you so much

Answer: Botox inactivity Im not sure what you mean by "won't work"? Are you able to still move the glabella muscle or do you mean that the wrinkle is still there? I find it hard to believe that if you were properly treated with legitimate product that is properly diluted and dosed, you won't see muscle weakening. I would find a new provider before you decide the treatment didn't work. As far as the wrinkle is concerned, the Botox or disport is designed to keep the dynamic wrinkles from worsening, it doesn't do much for static wrinkle or wrinkles at rest. Besides, it takes many injections over a couple of years to see gradual improvement in existing wrinkles. 3 months won't do it. Are you being treated by an experienced physician? if not, then thats part of the problem. Botox is a prescriptive medical treatment and should only be injected by a physician.

Answer: Toxin no responders! With both Botox and dysport they are manufactured with the same bacterium and carrier proteins while Xeomin toxin uses a different bacterium and carrier protein. Maybe try that one. Or yes fillers can fill but not paralyze!
