Botulinum toxin · Approved, well-studied, technique-dependent
The most common aesthetic procedure in the world, with decades of safety data.
Revisado médicamente por Bernard Garcia, MD
Qué es
Botulinum toxin type A products (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, Daxxify) are FDA-approved for specific facial lines and for many medical uses (migraine, spasticity, hyperhidrosis). Effects last three to six months.
Cómo funciona
The toxin blocks nerve signals to targeted muscles, softening dynamic wrinkles. Outcomes depend on injector skill and anatomy; side effects include bruising, asymmetry and, uncommonly, drooping that resolves as the effect wears off.
