About Botulinum Toxin

Botulinum toxin type A is a purified neurotoxic protein that temporarily relaxes targeted muscles responsible for dynamic wrinkles—those formed by repeated facial expressions. By preventing muscle contraction, neurotoxin injections smooth the overlying skin and help restore a youthful, refreshed appearance.

In the United States, the following FDA-approved botulinum toxin brands are used for cosmetic indications:

• Botox® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA – Allergan Aesthetics)

• Dysport® (abobotulinumtoxinA – Galderma)

• Xeomin® (incobotulinumtoxinA – Merz Aesthetics)

• Jeuveau® (prabotulinumtoxinA – Evolus)

• Daxxify® (daxibotulinumtoxinA-lanm – Revance Therapeutics)
