I have had Botox once before with pretty good results on the forehead & 11's and it also gave a nice little lift to my eyes.

I received Dysport 2 weeks ago and now I have one droopy eyelid! Ir looks horrible. My forehead & 11's are not smoother than when I used Botox, so I will have to say I like Botox much better. NOW how do I get rid of my droopy eyelid. I can feel that it is very heavy & have a hard time trying to open the eye all the way; the eyelid also seems swollen with a thicker appearance than my other eyelid. HELP!!!!

I had my first Dysport injection today. My doctor informed me about a possible eye drooping side effect. He said if it happened, there were eye drops that could be taken for three weeks to bring the eye back to normal. I don't know the name of the eye drops. I assume it's by prescription only. But DO CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR. And as far as my results, it's been 12 hours and I haven't seen one improvement yet. I've read that effects can be in as little as 2-3 days, so I assumed I'd start to see a little progression by now. I still look mean and mad with my scowl-y eyes!!

Hi, This is my second post asking the few who are reporting the same issue I am having now, droopy eyelid approximately after the injection of Dysport. My clinic said it would probably go away after about 7 to 10 days or I could get the expensive eye drops, but to wait to see if I needed them. What happened with you? Thanks, V

I have the same problem. With injections of Botox my ebrows got lifted with dysport drooped so I don't look relax but tired. I don't like how my face looks generaly after dysport. I wouldn't recomend it. It isn't worth the discount.

The ptosis should improve within a couple weeks. A drop called iopodine can be given to lift the eyelid and improve things. This is a known temporary risk of botox. It will go away with time.

I took the "Dysport Challenge" and now get to "sport" the hideous drooping eyelid. Not only does it look extremely unattractive, my right eyelid is heavy and at times, I have blurred vision. One friend even told me I look like I have bell's palsy! Please tell me that this isn't permanent. The procedure was performed by the reputable Wilshire Aesthetics in L.A. but I have not been offered any drops. You can be sure I will ask for some when I "drop in" to see him tomorrow.
