Dysport Post-Care Instructions

 

  • Neurotoxins take ~2 hours to bind to the nerve, during this time we do not want to increase circulation to the injection area and risk spreading the product. Avoid the following for the next 4 hours after your injections:

    • Laying Down

 

  • Avoid facials, peels, microdermabrasion, microneedling, etc. for 1 weeks after treatment.
  • Avoid wearing makeup for 24 hours allowing the injection sites to heal.
  • Gentle cleansers and light washing may be performed 4 hours after treatment if needed.
  • Full effects may take up to 14 days to appear and can last 2-3 months, depending on each person.
  • We recommend all patients make a 2-week follow-up appointment. (virtually or in person)
