There are so many types of facial Botox, I'm worried.
Is there a big difference between the types?
Hello, this is Baek Doo-san from Forever Clinic Cheongju Branch.
Everyone looks in the mirror and worries about their facial lines or expression wrinkles sometimes.
Especially areas that move frequently, such as the forehead, glabella, and jawline, are prone to changes in appearance due to loss of elasticity or overuse of muscles as we age.
Many people consider Botox to address these changes.
However, when you start researching procedures, the first thing you encounter is 'types of facial Botox'.
Since there are so many products, it's natural to be confused about which one to get and which one would suit you best.
We will organize the differences between products together, so if you read to the end, you will be able to make a clearer choice.
Representative types of facial Botox,
are divided like this.
Among the products commonly used in Korea are Wondertox, Coretox, and Xeomin.
Each has different characteristics and pros and cons,
so you need to choose differently
depending on the area or the desired change.
Wondertox is often used for jawline contouring because it is less expensive and provides stable results.
It helps to create a natural contour by gently relaxing the muscles.
Coretox is a product that has had unnecessary proteins removed to reduce the risk of developing resistance.
It is suitable for areas that require repeated procedures, such as the forehead and eye area, and can be used relatively safely in the long term.
Xeomin is an imported product developed in Germany and is mainly injected superficially to improve skin texture and reduce pore size.
If you are concerned about resistance,
be careful when choosing the type of facial Botox.
We often get asked if the effects decrease with frequent injections.
The short answer is that it's possible, but it doesn't happen to everyone.
This is because products with lower protein purification levels are known to be more likely to cause an immune response and generate antibodies.
Therefore,
if you are concerned about resistance,
it is advisable to choose highly purified products like
Coretox or Xeomin,
and avoid repeating them
at too short intervals.
Generally, it is safe to maintain an interval of at least 3 months, but the interval may vary depending on the area and muscle condition.
There can be differences
depending on the type of facial Botox.
The changes and effects do not differ depending on the type of facial Botox. They all tend to produce similar results.
However, there may be slight differences in the duration of effect.
Generally, areas with a lot of movement, such as the forehead and glabella, last for about 3-4 months, while areas with strong muscles, such as the jawline, last for about 4-6 months.
At this point, the duration of effect can vary depending on the type of facial Botox used, as well as individual muscle usage habits, lifestyle, and constitution.
Therefore, it is important
to determine the appropriate dosage and
interval of the product
for your condition through consultation before the procedure.
Botox is not just a procedure to shrink muscles or smooth wrinkles.
It is a means to balance the overall proportions of the face and create harmony.
Therefore, the key to satisfaction is to create a plan tailored to your facial characteristics, rather than relying solely on product names or trends.
We hope you find the right type for you through sufficient consultation.
