Botulax 200 units
Botulax 200 Units is a botulinum toxin type A formulated by Hugel. It's a temporary treatment for facial wrinkles and conditions such as blepharospasm (involuntary eyelid twitching) and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
When used to treat wrinkles like glabellar lines – known as frown lines – botox is administered into the muscles of facial expressions and frowning. The injections temporarily relax and paralyze the muscles, limiting their movement. Eventually, the procedure prevents the formation of wrinkles and folds caused by conditions related to excessive muscle contractions.
The effect of Botulax 200 Units is not permanent as the treatment performs denervation (turning off nerve-muscle communication) on a temporary basis. Over time, the nerve endings regenerate, and muscle activity resumes. This means the effects of the treatment wear off within 3 to 6 months, making repeat treatments necessary for maintaining the results.

How to use Botulax 200 Units
The treatment with Botulax 200 Units should be performed by a certified practitioner.
A note for health care professionals: To treat blepharospasm, reconstitute the Botulax 200 by diluting the product using preservative-free, sterile saline. Use a sterile 27-30 gauge needle for injections. Start with a dose of 1.25-2.5U, injecting into the medial and lateral pre-tarsal orbicularis oculi of the upper lid and the lateral pre-tarsal orbicularis oculi of the lower lid. Results become partially apparent within 3 days and demonstrate themselves fully in 1-2 weeks. You can increase the dose in future sessions if needed, but stay under 200 U in 30 days.
For glabellar lines, reconstitute the botulinum toxin to get 200 U/5.0 mL. Use a 30-gauge needle and inject 0.1 mL at 5 sites across the forehead muscles, 2 in each corrugator muscle and 1 in the procerus muscle, totaling 20 U. Be cautious to prevent complications like ptosis.
Store the reconstituted product in the refrigerator and use it within 24 hours of reconstitution. Check for clarity and absence of particles before use.
