Botulinum Toxin Description

The term “Allergan unit” upon which dosing is based, is a specific measurement of toxin activity that is unique to Allergan’s formulation of botulinum toxin type A. Therefore, the “Allergan units” used to describe BOTOX activity are different from those used to describe that of other botulinum toxin preparations, and the units representing BOTOX activity are not interchangeable with other botulinum products.

Injected botulinum toxin prevents the release of acetylcholine, preventing contraction of the muscle cells. Botulinum toxin causes a reduction in abnormal muscle contraction, allowing the muscles to become less stiff. Botulinum toxin is predominantly used as a treatment to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines.

Beyond aesthetic applications, Botox is used to treat a variety of medical conditions, including eye squints, migraines, excess sweating, and leaky bladders. Botulinum toxin is currently used to treat over 20 different medical conditions, with more applications under investigation.

It is important to follow and maintain the optimum storage conditions of Botox. Botox can be safely stored in large quantities for easy access, at room temperature before the application’s first usage. Once the Botox solution is made up for the first time, it must be stored in the refrigerator to ensure maximum sterility of its key active ingredients, the neurotoxin from Clostridium botulinum bacteria. It is this neurotoxin that numbs or paralyzes muscles that are subject to spasms.

Precautions

1. Facial massage, hot compress and rubbing are forbidden within one month after face-lifting with btx

2. Avoid eating hard-shelled foods after face-lifting with btx; fasting spicy and seafood foods, avoiding tobacco and alcohol within a week.

3. In the early stage of face-lifting with btx, chewing weakness and soreness may occur.

4. Because of chewing habits, there will still be slight asymmetry on both sides after injection.

5. A small number of people may be insensitive to the drug and the effect is not obvious, so you should return to the clinic after 2 weeks.

6. Btx is recoverable after face-lifting, which means that it needs to be injected again in theory to maintain the effect after three to six months.

7. The first injection of btx is suitable for early wrinkles. Although the injection for severe wrinkles for the elderly is effective, the effect is poor.

8. Do not use cosmetics on the day of btx injection. When injecting, cooperate with the doctor as much as possible to make the wrinkles clear.

9. Do not take aspirin or aminoglycoside antibiotics (such as gentamicin and kanamycin) within 2 weeks before the injection of btx, because they will enhance the toxicity of btx type A.

10. Rest quietly within 4 hours after injection of btx. Keep your body upright. Do not do strenuous activities within 24 hours.

11. Do not massage the area where the btx is injected to prevent the A-type btx from spreading to the muscles in other parts.

The precautions for btx injection must be strictly followed to avoid the side effects of btx injection. And it must be injected in a regular hospital.
