Botox from Allergan, Xeomin, Nabota — wrinkle reduction, facial contouring, jawline slimming, hyperhidrosis treatment
Botox (Botulinum Toxin Type A) is a purified protein that inhibits nerve signals to muscles, causing temporary relaxation to reduce wrinkles, contour facial features, slim jawline, and treat excessive sweating. Available brands: Allergan (4-5 months), Xeomin (3-4 months), Nabota (3 months).
Botox blocks acetylcholine release from nerve endings, causing muscle relaxation. Effects begin in 3-7 days, peak at 1-2 weeks (wrinkles) or 2-3 weeks (contouring).
Duration: 15-30 minutes
Downtime: No downtime. Avoid lying flat for 4 hours, heat/saunas for 24-48 hours.
Suitable for: Those wanting wrinkle reduction, jawline slimming, excessive sweating treatment, migraines
Changes appear within 3-7 days, with wrinkles softening fully at 1-2 weeks; jaw slimming/reshaping peaks at about 3-4 weeks. Results are temporary, lasting roughly 3-8 months (Allergan ~4-5, Xeomin ~3-4, Nabota/MBtox ~3 months), depending on site and dose.
Allergan = global standard, high precision, long-lasting; Xeomin = pure "naked" toxin, lower resistance risk, good for frequent users; Nabota = quality close to Allergan, fast onset, good value; MBtox = a newer, budget option — best done with an expert physician.
