I am a first time user and my Doctor recommended Dysport. About a week after my injections, my eyes are swollen and now my eye bags are more prominent and on top of that darker color. I look 10 years older from wanting to have frown lines treated. Then 2-3 days ago, I am starting to have blurred vision. I am absolutely certain that the toxin have affected my eyes. Unless you are willing to risk your eyes, do not go for Dysport.

Thank you, I did not have injections under the eyes. Just the vertical frown line between my brows. I really believe that Dysport 'travels' further from the intended spot. My vision had not change for 20 Years and I had eye exam every year. All of a sudden I have blurred vision. I will be discussing with my Dr. again today.

Depressed had Dysport mid December looked pretty good for a week or so then all of a sudden my skin was saggy. Apples in cheeks gone, jaw line more pronounced, supper saggy skin especially around my eyes. People look at me funny and ask if I am "tired" I have never had anyone ask if I was tired even on 2 hrs of sleep. The brightness in my smile is gone. Eyes droop down at corners, right eye squints more than the left also, both eyes are closed more and major bags. I have been keeping skin hydrated with good face cream. Changed glasses, hair, makeup and skin care and still look really CRAPPY and OLD I am 36 and feel awful when I look at pix from a couple months ago. My face would light up, looked healthy, wide eyed, etc. SO SAD!!!! Has anyone ever recovered fully from the same situation if so how long did it take. Feels like my face gets worse not better :( I do go and see the Dr. on Monday but really what are they going to do....look at me and say sorry just hang in there 4-6 months. I have soooo many NEW WRINKLES only had one next to mouth and 3 faint ones. How would new wrinkles go away after 6 months??? Sounds like non-sense Does Microcurrent work for the muscle tone?? Paid over $600 to make myself look like crap and 10 yrs old yeah me :( My eyes have been feeling really strange too I have to squint often or rub them. NEVER, NEVER USE DYSPORT.

Hi there, I am so sorry to hear about your situation. There isn't much you or your doctor can do now. I did it in September and my forehead started to loose the 'tight' feeling in December. My vision is still a bit blurry. Like I posted before, my vision was stable for 20 years. I hope more people can see this post because it is NOT worth your vision over Dysport. I did not have injections under my eyes at all, just between my brows at one spot!

I feel really bad to hear you had this awful situation happen to you too. My eyes have been closing up and a big bag under my last line has formed,vision is now a little foggy and have to clean the corners of my eyes often. My eyes feel kind of weierd and I have to squint most of the time which makes things worse. You are a couple months out any improvements????? Did they say the eye situation gets better or "maybe" it will??? When I did research on side effects before I went. I could not find these sites anywhere until I googled "why do I look old after Dysport?" I had a bad feeling before the appointment should have listened to it :(

Hang in there!!! Since I could not do a thing about the dark circles, I am refocusing and working out more at gym. I am staying with what I could control....occasionally I glance at the mirror when I work out and see the dark circles...but it is not going to stop me!!!! Keep your chin up, tell your friends to stay off Dysport!!!!!

Thanks "swollen eyes" what you are saying is everything went back to normal except now you have dark circles that you can cover with concealer??? Take Care.
Hi swollen,
I'm so so sorry. This sounds very painful not only physically, but emotionally. Did you get the injections under your eye? Often times the community and some of the Dr's on the site do not think that is always a good idea in case of complications. You might want to also check out the forum post, Side Effects of Dysport. Hopefully you will find some support there. Please keep us updated.
Thank you ,
