What is Botox?
It is an incredible story about how a powerful substance found in nature is transformed and used for both medicinal and aesthetic purposes, with amazing results.
In 2002, the FDA approved Botox as a temporary cosmetic treatment for moderate to severe frown lines in adults and required that the product be marketed as a cosmetic, to make sure there was a clear separation between Botox for aesthetic and therapeutic uses.
It was the first treatment of its kind approved for aesthetic use, and today it remains the only product approved by the FDA to make lines and wrinkles look better in adults.
Approved and available for use in 98 countries, Botox has become the #1 selling treatment of its kind worldwide, which is why we use it here at Eyes Defined Clinic in London.
Is Botox Safe?
Botox is the most extensively researched treatment of its kind, with over 15 years of clinical studies supporting its use.
Botox Cosmetic uses a unique manufacturing process, making it very safe for use, This is why there is no such thing as generic ‘Botox’—a product is either branded as Botox or it is not.
