FACIAL TREATMENTS

DYSPORT is a quick and safe procedure which has very little impact on usual activity on the day of injection. Tiny injections are delivered to relax the action of the muscles that create excessive movement and leave wrinkles on the skin. To allow the DYSPORT ®to work optimally in the target muscle, the following precautions are usually suggested:

• No rubbing or massaging of the injected area for 4 hours after treatment, including facials.
• No strenuous exercise for 24 hours after treatment.
• Keep upright for 4 hours — no lying on your front. Avoid activities such as shoe shopping.
• Avoid headwear that is tightly fitted across the forehead.
• Avoid excessive alcohol or medically necessary blood thinning medication before the treatment to prevent bruising.

Normal daily activity can be resumed immediately following treatment. Light exercise can be performed after 4 hours but it is recommended that strenuous activities are avoided for 24 hours.

After 4 hours you may perform light exercise such as:

• Walking
• Jogging
• Upright yoga (avoid any positions that leave you lying flat or upside down)
• Gardening

It is recommended that you wait 24 hours before attempting any strenuous exercise, including:

• Weight training
• Cross training
• Long distance running
• Yoga (positions where the body is inverted) Can I wear make-up after my DYSPORT® treatment?

Yes. Ideally, avoid make up for an hour or so. However, mineral make up can be applied immediately after DYSPORT®. Again, it is recommended that you do not apply too much pressure during these activities in order to ensure that the DYSPORT® does not disperse from the treated area.
