[Doctor Bellevue Column 63.] Botox Types Without Worrying About Resistance

Hello?

Recommended Botox types that are unlikely to develop resistance

For those of you heading into the spring and summer season, when weddings and photoshoots become more frequent, many people visit dermatology clinics for Botox treatments that can reduce the size of the calves, trapezius muscles, deltoids, and sweating. Since most women likely receive such treatments at least once or twice a year, many people wonder, "Could Botox resistance develop?" Experts warn that the likelihood of resistance can increase with very frequent procedures or procedures that use large doses, such as body treatments.

In cases like this, what types of Botox can be recommended as unlikely to develop resistance? At our clinic, representative examples include Xeomin, Botulax, and Nabota. These products are Botox formulations specially designed to reduce the possibility of resistance.

1. Xeomin

Xeomin is a Botox developed by Merz in Germany, and it is a pure botulinum toxin with unnecessary complex protein components removed. Because of this, it is less likely to trigger an immune response, which is why many doctors recommend it for its low risk of resistance. The drawback is its high cost. Xeomin generally begins to show effects after 3 to 4 days and lasts for about 3 months. After that, the effect gradually diminishes, but because resistance is less likely, the results can be maintained even with repeated treatments.

2. Botulax, Nabota, Coretox

These products also contain fewer complex protein components, so the likelihood of resistance is low. Botulax is manufactured by Pacific Pharmaceuticals in Korea and is a product approved by the KFDA (Korea Food & Drug Administration) and the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration). This means that its safety and effectiveness have been proven. In particular, when used as jawline Botox, it can show very strong effects. However, the cheaper the Botox product, the more likely it may contain complex protein components that can increase the chance of an immune-cell response in the body. In the case of higher-priced Botox such as Xeomin, unnecessary complex protein components are carefully separated and only the pure neurotoxin protein component is refined, reducing the risk of resistance. In any case, in clinical settings, various Botox products show very similar effects, and the results appear quickly after the procedure, with similar duration of effect.

Coretox is also widely recommended as a Botox type that is unlikely to develop resistance. The key point in Botox resistance is simply to remember that "having fewer complex protein components and minimizing immune reactions is important." If it is difficult to remember each product name individually, then during your consultation before the procedure, choosing a product with these characteristics can help reduce concerns about resistance. Resistance is one issue, but cost should also be considered, so please compare the pros and cons carefully before the procedure and choose the product that best suits your situation.

That is all for today.
