Are there differences between imported toxin products?

Botox (Allergan) is the original product with the longest clinical data as the first FDA approval, Xeomin (Merz) is a pure toxin with the complexing proteins removed, and Dysport (Ipsen) has a wider diffusion range and is used on broad areas such as the forehead. We select after a consultation based on the area and goal.

Is there no concern about resistance with imported toxin?

Products with the complexing proteins removed (such as Xeomin) are known to have a relatively lower likelihood of neutralizing antibody formation. Regardless of the product, however, keeping to an appropriate dose and allowing a sufficient interval of 3 months or more is the basis of preventing resistance.

Why is it more expensive than domestic toxin?

Purification technology, the volume of accumulated clinical data, and logistics and customs costs from importing are all reflected in the price. The direction of the effect is the same, so it is sensible to choose based on your treatment goal, timeframe, and area.

How long do the results last?

Depending on the area and product it generally lasts 3–6 months, and can be maintained with a repeat treatment when the effect diminishes. For hyperhidrosis and body areas it may last 6 months or more.

Even with the same toxin,
what makes the difference is placement and design

Toxin is not simply a treatment injected wherever wrinkles appear. Because the muscles of the face are connected and move together, the injection point, depth, and dose change the result for your expressions and overall impression.

With id Design Toxin, a Pro Doctor comprehensively assesses each person's facial bone structure, muscle size, expression habits, and left-right balance, and treats with a focus on the muscles that need it. Keeping expressions natural while finely improving the areas of concern is the direction id Design Toxin pursues.
