Botox:
In the UK, Botox is a brand name of a specific type of Botulinum toxin type A manufactured by Allergan. However, there are other brands of Botulinum toxin type A that are also licensed for cosmetic use in the UK. These brands include:
Bocouture:
Manufactured by Merz Pharmaceuticals, Bocouture is another brand of Botulinum toxin type A that is licensed for use in the UK. It is used for both medical and cosmetic purposes, similar to Botox.
Azzalure:
Azzalure is another brand of Botulinum toxin type A that is licensed in the UK. It is manufactured by Galderma and is primarily used for cosmetic purposes, such as reducing the appearance of facial wrinkles.
Botox Safety:
It's essential for patients to consult with a trained and licensed practitioner to determine the most suitable treatment option based on their individual needs and preferences. Other available brands such as Dysport and Xeomin are licensed for medical use and may be used off license for cosmetic use.
Keeping in view different types of Botulinum toxins available for treating different conditions at different levels and variations in their doses and effects, it is essential that the practitioners should get the Botox course training in performing and using various Botulinum toxins. They should be aware of how much quantities of Botulinum toxin type will be enough to induce the underlying and desired changes. A little mistake or carelessness in performing the botulinum treatment can lead to temporary muscle paralysis and other side effects depending on the injected area. Complete background knowledge about the Botulinum Toxin type A and B is necessary to know about their effects. Therefore, it is essential that the Botox courses should teach practitioners about the variations in the doses and effects of Botulinum types for achievement of positive and effective results.
