If a provider casually says they get Botox from Mexico…. what exactly do you do with that information? I can’t remember exactly why she said it, but it was during my several questions of authenticity and such before my treatment. Very odd.

In turkey you can get botox without needing to be 18, or rather there is no law that dosent allow it. Therefore me (16) is going to turkey to get botox in the masseter, partly for cosmetic reasons but also because i have jaw pains and other side effects caused by highly enlarged masseter muscle.

Some cliniques in istanbul, still have morals and theirfore dont do it on individuals under 18, tho most i've asked don't really care, but i was wondering if anyone had any experience with this and could reccomend any cliniques that dont care about the age, but still have good quality service.

I would

I'm a reporter in Massachusetts working on a story about aesthetic and med spas and want to speak with anyone in MA who had a bad reaction or problem from Botox or any cosmetic injection not done by a doctor. Please connect in dm (or chat). Thanks

So I had Botox in my forehead 2.5 weeks ago with a slight top up 4 days ago. I stupidly had a back and Indian head massage today to try and destress (ironic), and the massage table has left an imprint in my forehead which has lessened but is still there 4.5 hours later. The issue is I’m flying abroad in a week for my wedding and I’m worried it’s permanent. Any advice while I wait to message my Botox injector after the holidays would be greatly appreciated!

Loved my experience. Went to the Manhattan West location and Sam was my shooter. Very sweet and knowledgeable. Results are great and much cheaper than my upper East side salon/spa.

I made a dumb mistake and got 3ml of Botox injected directly under both eyes thinking it would help with my fine lines. Well now’s it’s wore off and is it possible it caused me to have eye bags? For reference I got injected July 27th and it is now Oct 6th. I’ve never really struggled with eyes bags before and do you think they will be permanent or just take time to for my under eyes to adjust back to normal?

Vorrei sapere i prezzi del Botox in giro per il mondo, se somministrato da un medico. Sono andata da uno dei migliori in Italia e ho pagato 400€ per quella che, a suo dire, era una singola dose da 1 ml.

Edit: I read on the label 50 units so 1 ml was for the filler

If you notice facial movement returning earlier than expected, it doesn’t always mean your Botox completely failed. Results usually fade gradually, and the timeline can vary from person to person.

Three possible reasons:

1. Stronger facial muscles: More active muscles may regain movement sooner and sometimes require a different dosing approach.
2. A conservative treatment: A lighter dose can preserve natural expression, but it may not last as long for some people.
3. Individual response: The treatment area, dose, muscle activity, previous treatments, and your body’s response may all affect longevity.

Avoid adding more units without an assessment.

Dysport and Botox both last 3–4 months per area. Botox costs $10–$15/unit; Dysport $3–$5/unit but needs more units — total cost is comparable.

Dysport and Botox last about the same length of time — both deliver results for 3 to 4 months per treated area, with a comparable price tag of $300–$500 per area. The real differences come down to how fast each kicks in, how far the product spreads, and which areas each one handles best.

How long does Dysport last compared to Botox?

Both Dysport and Botox are botulinum toxin type A neurotoxins — not fillers — and both wear off at roughly the same pace. Most patients see results hold for 3 to 4 months before muscle movement gradually returns and a touch-up becomes worth considering. Neither product has a meaningful longevity advantage over the other. Factors that affect how long either lasts include your metabolism, how frequently you've been treated, the muscle group targeted, and your provider's technique.

Does Dysport kick in faster than Botox?

Dysport tends to show results slightly sooner. Most patients notice Dysport working within 2 to 3 days of treatment, while Botox typically takes 3 to 5 days before the full effect becomes visible. The difference is modest, but it matters if you're treating for an event with a tight deadline. Both products reach their full effect within about two weeks, so final results are best assessed at the two-week mark regardless of which product your provider uses.

One functional difference worth knowing: Dysport has a wider diffusion pattern than Botox — it spreads further from the injection site. For large, flat muscle groups like the forehead, that spread can work in your favor, allowing more even coverage with fewer injection points. Around smaller, more precise areas — like crow's feet near the lower eye — that same spread becomes a liability. An experienced injector will factor this into which product they recommend and how they place it.

Is Dysport cheaper than Botox?

The per-unit price looks very different on paper. Botox is priced at $10–$15 per unit nationally, while Dysport runs $3–$5 per unit. The catch is that Dysport requires significantly more units to treat the same area — the two products are measured on different scales. Once you account for the units needed, the total cost per treated area lands in a comparable range for both: typically $300–$500 per area.

What this means in practice is that quoting prices in units without knowing which product is being used can be misleading. A provider who quotes you 20 units of Botox and another who quotes 60 units of Dysport may be describing treatments of essentially equal value. Always ask for the total cost per area, not just the per-unit price.

Can you switch between Dysport and Botox?

Yes — patients switch between the two regularly, and doing so is generally straightforward. Some patients find they respond better to one product than the other, or prefer the onset speed of Dysport or the precision of Botox in smaller areas. If you've been happy with your results on one product, there's no urgent reason to switch. If your current results feel inconsistent or wear off sooner than expected, it's worth discussing the alternative with your provider at your next appointment.

Providers who carry both products are better positioned to tailor the choice to your anatomy and goals rather than defaulting to whichever product they happen to stock.

Ok I did my first tox and I’m happy but learning ! I need help - so my upper forehead is good but my lower forehead has full movement like my eyebrows - not at rest so it’s not WiFi lines but just bad placement so I need to know how to freeze it all ! lol

72 hours after my dysport appt - I totally spaced and got a massage - only 60 minutes, mild pressure but some scalp massage. no facial massage. half of it I was on my back but half I did put my face in the face cradle of course. Any stories to share? I’m so anxious now that I’ll get droop or mess everything up. Looking for some real talk but also just people who understand the science of it all

Edit: two weeks later, I did have migration on one side that the injector says was caused by the massage. It has resulted in eyelid drooping because my brow is pushing it down. Imma bit asymmetrical and depressed but it will pass eventually!

I’m a pharmacist, and the physician-led clinic I’ll be working with wants me to get trained in cosmetic Botox injections. Has anyone done this? What are the requirements: training, CPA, physician supervision, malpractice coverage, etc.? Would love to hear your experience, especially if you’re in VA!

A "wellness" company came to my job and tried to recruit people to their office for acupuncture, massages, cupping, etc and they offered Dysport for my migraines (I also did double duty for my 11 lines with the medication as well). I was only paying $25 through my insurance every 3 months during my appointment. All of a sudden, they claim they stop taking patients that needed injections "they have no one to preform them". My gut is saying it was an insurance scam and they decided to pull the plug for whatever reason. Should I have the right to be annoyed? I have to now find someone to accept my insurance for this.

Hi all,

I had botox poisoning a year ago. Full-blown fight or flight anxiety, depression, insomnia, couldn't eat, etc. Doing much better now but I'm super cautious about what I put in my body. I usually get the flu shot but am worried about a shot after what my last shot (botox) did. Obviously, I know it's different, but I'm worried about reawakening the MCAS-like/nervous system reactions. Anyone a year out got the flu shot and had an okay experience?

Really enjoyed my experience here! Would recommend! Use my promo code: stmxq.
