BOTOX® is a specific registered trademark and prescription medicine. It is not a generic term for all botulinum toxin products. The active ingredient is onabotulinumtoxinA. Facial muscles receive signals from nearby nerves via a chemical called acetylcholine. BOTOX® works by temporarily reducing acetylcholine release locally, meaning the selected treated muscles contract less strongly for a temporary period. It does not permanently paralyse nerves or dissolve muscles.

01 / How it works
This action targets dynamic expression lines wrinkles that become more visible during facial movement like frowning or smiling. It is crucial to distinguish these from static lines, which remain etched in the skin when the face is relaxed. While BOTOX® may soften dynamic movement, reducing muscle activity cannot directly fill lost volume, resurface skin quality, or remove established static creases. Other toxin brands have separate formulations, potency units, and registrations; they are not simply stronger or weaker versions of BOTOX®.

06 / Before you decide
Any injection involves risks such as pain, bleeding, bruising, swelling, headache, or infection. Depending on the targeted area, unwanted localized muscle weakness can result in eyelid ptosis, brow ptosis, altered eyebrow shape, dry eye, double vision (diplopia), or smile asymmetry. We review your medical history carefully, including previous facial surgery, neuromuscular conditions, and active medicines.
Crucially, the effects of botulinum toxin may rarely spread beyond the intended treatment area. Distant toxin spread can cause generalized muscle weakness and life-threatening difficulties with swallowing, speaking, or breathing. These severe symptoms may occur after treatment rather than just during the appointment. If you experience these warning signs, you must seek emergency medical assessment immediately. Singapore patients experiencing severe breathing or swallowing symptoms should access local urgent care rather than attempting to cross the border first.
