This video FAQ Clinical Director of Cosmetic Courses Adrian Richards looks at your question “what are the differences between the varieties of Botulinum Toxin”…
The three market leaders of Botulinum Toxin, Allergan, Galderma and Merz all hold slight differences. From units, storage and formulas. These difference should be extensively looked at by yourselves when choosing which brand you want to use. There are many good botulinum toxin brands out there but you may find one works better for you than the other, this can be down to personal preference or the accessibility of product in the resources you have such as storage.
