AESTHETIC BOTULINUM TOXIN TYPE A
History:
Botulinum toxin type A was discovered in the 19th century, but its medical use began in the 1970s to treat strabismus and blepharospasm. It was approved by the FDA in 1989 for therapeutic purposes and, in 2002, started its aesthetic revolution by being approved for the temporary treatment of glabellar lines (frown lines). Since then, it has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the world.
Benefits:
- Smooths dynamic expression lines such as crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, and frown lines.
- Helps prevent new wrinkle formation by relaxing muscle contractions.
- Provides a more rested and youthful appearance without altering natural expressions.
- Quick procedure with visible results in a few days and no downtime.
- Can also be used for subtle lifting treatments (like a non-surgical brow lift) and facial slimming (masseter muscle modulation).
Ideal Candidates:
- People with dynamic expression lines (forehead, frown lines, crow’s feet).
- Patients looking to prevent wrinkles without surgery.
- Younger individuals interested in preventive treatments.
