Article Abstract
This study is the first to show in detail the long term results of treatments of hemifacial spasm with Dysport.The efficacy is constant throughout the first to 12th treatments in both the complete group and the subgroup.Ptosis can be reduced by moving the injection site further up to the lateral part of the orbital orbicularis oculi.The efficacy of Dysport is comparable with Botox in long term followup.
