Botox
Botox is a trading name for botulinum toxin A. It was produced by Allergan Co., Ltd. in the United States. Botox is a pure protein, extracted from Botulinum toxin type A. It is used to reduce wrinkles around the eyebrows and forehead, and crow’s feet, causing smooth skin on top of those muscles. Botox is popular and widespread in more than 100 countries around the world. It has been researched and tested for over 12 years to confirm treatment in millions of people worldwide. According to medical treatment, wrinkles on the face are caused by many factors, such as increasing age, exposure to sunlight and heat, effects of makeup or use of makeup, stress, and facial expressions. Botox injections every 6–8 months help effectively reduce those skin problems. Botox injections or Botulinum toxin imported from the right agents are therefore safe and certified by the Food and Drug Administration, both in Thailand and abroad.
