Kingtox – Botulinum Toxin Type A for Aesthetic and Therapeutic Applications
1. Overview & Manufacturer
Kingtox is a botulinum toxin type A injectable product manufactured in South Korea, developed for cosmetic and therapeutic use. Designed to meet global demand for high-quality, safe, and cost-effective neuromodulators, Kingtox is manufactured under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) conditions, offering a reliable and clinically efficient solution for medical professionals.2. Composition & Packaging
Each vial of Kingtox typically contains 100 units of Clostridium botulinum toxin type A, provided in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form
Requires reconstitution with 0.9% sterile sodium chloride (NaCl) prior to administration
Formulated with low protein content, reducing the risk of antibody development and ensuring effectiveness in long-term treatment plans
3. Mechanism of Action
Kingtox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction. This action temporarily inhibits muscle contraction, leading to:
Relaxation of facial muscles
Reduction of dynamic wrinkles and fine lines
Control of overactive glands (e.g., sweat glands in hyperhidrosis)
Improvement in certain muscle-related disorders
4. Key Advantages
Rapid onset of results – noticeable effects typically begin within 2–4 days
Duration of results – effects last around 3–6 months, depending on dosage and treatment area
Stable diffusion – ideal for controlled and natural-looking outcomes in both large and delicate facial zones
Cost-effective alternative – competitively priced without compromising clinical quality
Versatile use – suitable for both aesthetic and off-label therapeutic procedures
