Botox Allergan 100 – The Gold Standard in Aesthetic Botulinum Toxin
1. Brand & Origin
Botox® Allergan 100 is a botulinum toxin type A product manufactured by Allergan, a leading pharmaceutical company based in the United States. It is the original and FDA-approved botulinum toxin, with a long-standing reputation for safety and efficacy in both cosmetic and therapeutic use.
2. Composition & Packaging
Each vial contains 100 units of botulinum toxin type A in a vacuum-dried (lyophilized) powder form.
It must be reconstituted with sterile saline (0.9% sodium chloride) before injection.
3. Mechanism of Action
Botox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter responsible for muscle contraction. When injected into specific muscles, it temporarily relaxes them, leading to:
Reduction of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines (glabellar lines), forehead lines, and crow’s feet.
Facial contouring, including masseter muscle reduction for a slimmer jawline.
Excessive sweating treatment (hyperhidrosis) in areas like underarms, palms, and soles.
Medical uses such as treatment for chronic migraine, muscle spasms, and strabismus.
4. Key Advantages
High purity and consistent results, with a proven safety profile in over 90 countries.
Visible effects typically appear within 3 to 7 days, lasting approximately 3 to 6 months.
Precise diffusion allows targeted application with minimal risk of toxin migration.
5. Ideal Candidates
Adults aged 18 to 65 seeking non-surgical cosmetic enhancement or therapeutic relief.
Botox 100 is particularly suited for fine adjustments and smaller treatment areas such as around the eyes and between the brows.
6. Storage & Handling
Store in a refrigerator (2–8°C) before and after reconstitution.
Must be administered by a licensed and trained medical professional.
