BOTOX^® Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of both moderate to severe crow’s feet lines and frown lines between the eyebrows in adults.

Approximately 10.9 million vials of BOTOX^® have been sold in the United States since 2002, and millions of people have already made BOTOX^® a part of what they do for themselves. Today, BOTOX^® is the #1 selling product of its kind in the world.^†

BOTOX^® is one of the most extensively studied medical aesthetic treatments and is approved for cosmetic use in 78 countries. BOTOX^® has a record of experience that aesthetic specialists know and trust. And, the safety and efficacy of BOTOX^® have been evaluated in both Allergan (the manufacturer of BOTOX®) sponsored clinical trials as well as in 417 peer-reviewed articles in scientific and medical journals.

BOTOX^® contains tiny amounts of a highly purified botulinum toxin protein refined from the bacterium, Clostridium botulinum. Formulations, potency and approved doses vary among botulinum toxin products, which means that one product cannot take the place of another. Those are a few reasons why there is no such thing as a “generic” form of BOTOX^®.

We also recommend you be very selective in choosing a skilled, licensed, experienced professional to inject BOTOX®.  Dr. Dino Madonna and Dr. Moak – Board Certified facial plastic surgeons at The Villages^®, Leesburg and Tavares – have injected thousands of units for hundreds of clients. Understanding the facial structure, muscles and what the patient desires are all critical parts to insuring the safety and proper, natural results.
