💉NOT ALL NEUROTOXINS ARE CREATED THE SAME!
Botox, Xeomin, and Letybo all work by temporarily relaxing targeted muscles to soften expression lines and wrinkles. While they share the same basic mechanism of action, there are some differences in their formulation, onset, and pricing.
Let’s break it down!
✨ BOTOX® (OnabotulinumtoxinA)
● Formulation: Contains botulinum toxin type A along with accessory proteins.
● Diffusion: Provides predictable, targeted muscle relaxation. Placement, dosage, dilution, and injection technique influence how the product spreads.
● Onset: Typically begins working within 7-10days, with results continuing to develop over the first 1–2 weeks.
● Cost: Often considered a premium-priced option.
✨ XEOMIN® (IncobotulinumtoxinA)
● Formulation: A highly purified botulinum toxin type A without accessory complexing proteins.
● Diffusion: Predictable and precise spread.
● Onset: Typically 2–7 days.
● Cost: Pricing is budget friendly.
✨ LETYBO® (LetibotulinumtoxinA)
● Formulation: Botulinum toxin type A with accessory complexing proteins.
● Diffusion: Similar considerations apply to other neurotoxins. Precise placement, appropriate dosing, and knowledge of facial anatomy are essential.
● Onset: Some patients notice improvement as early as 24 hours, with many reporting improvement within 3 days.
● Cost: Often an attractive alternative for patients looking for another effective neurotoxin option at an economical price point.
SO, WHICH ONE IS BEST?
There isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer!
All three can provide beautiful results when selected and administered appropriately. The best choice depends on your facial anatomy, muscle strength, aesthetic goals, treatment history, and budget.
