I am 44 and have vertical and horizontal lines on forehead. I did a Groupon for 40 units of Dysport and the Doctor told me it was not enough. So I paid to double it and he wrote down that I had 50 units. How much should I have had? He said I could go back for touch up in 2 weeks, but now I think I didn't have to pay for the extra!
Answer: Be careful with Groupon Please watch the video below. I try to explain some key aspects of the technicalities of using or getting botox. It really does make a difference who is injecting, how much and where it is injected. It is one of those treatments that unfortunately has become a commodity and it really requires a bit more of an artistic finesse approach ini my mind. We use the neuromodulators to target and soften the muscle groups without giving that frozen look. Hope this helps, Best of luck, DrC

Answer: Dysport Units The glabella is what we call the vertical lines between the eyebrows. 50 units is adequate to start for the glabella, however, it depends upon the individual patient to really determine how many unit s is sufficient. As for the horizontal forehead lines, they typically require a lower dosage than the glabella. But, many things must be taken into consideration, such as the size of your forehead and the motion of it to accurately estimate the dosage.

Answer: Dysport units for the forehead Each patient is unique, but most patients will require approximately 30 units of Dysport for the horizontal forehead lines and 60 units of Dysport for the vertical lines between the brows (glabella). This will vary from one injector to another, and from one patient to another. It may be affected by how the product is diluted, where the injections are placed, and other factors. Always see an expert physician injector. All the best,

Answer: How many units of Dysport Thank you for your question about Dysport. The amount of units given varies by patient. A typical dose for the "11's" between the eyes is usually around 50 units, give or take a few units. For the horizontal lines on the forehead, and typical dose is around 30 units, plus or minus units depending on the patient (depth of lines and strength of the muscles that need relaxation). I would certainly encourage you to follow up with the injector to verify how many units you had, and express to him/her any concerns. To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Treating Forehead Lines with Dysport Dysport® is an injectable used to temporarily improve the look of frown lines without changing the look of your whole face. The untreated facial muscles still work normally, allowing you to freely show facial expressions, such as smiling, in untreated areas. Over time, the use of muscles above and between the eyebrows cause wrinkles. Injecting Dysport® into these areas, blocks the signal from the nerve to the muscles, reducing muscle activity. The result is temporary softening or elimination of visible wrinkles/lines. A skilled provider will determine the number of units necessary for your optimal results.#Dysporttreatswrinkles #DysportvsBotox #Dysportforeheadlines
