BOTOX® 50u is an onabotulinumtoxinA injectable treatment used for both cosmetic and therapeutic applications. It acts as a neuromuscular blocking agent, inhibiting acetylcholine release, which temporarily reduces muscle contractions. This makes it effective for reducing dynamic wrinkles, such as glabellar lines, lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet), and forehead lines. Additionally, it is used for medical conditions like chronic migraines, muscle spasticity, and hyperhidrosis. The effects last between 3 to 6 months, requiring periodic treatments for sustained results​.

Key Features:

• Purified Botulinum Toxin Type A – A highly precise neurotoxin formulation.
• Dual-Use Product – Approved for both aesthetic wrinkle reduction and medical conditions like migraines and spasticity.
• Temporary Results – Lasts 3-6 months, with peak effects appearing within 2 weeks​.

BOTOX® 50u is supplied in a single-use vial, containing a vacuum-dried powder that requires reconstitution before injection. The vial is sealed with holographic security features to ensure authenticity.
