Metox 100 Units

What is it?
Metox is a modern botulinum toxin type A preparation designed to provide safe, effective, and predictable correction of facial wrinkles and muscle-related aesthetic concerns. Developed with advanced purification and stabilization technologies, Metox ensures consistent potency, minimal risk of adverse effects, and excellent patient tolerance. Its mechanism of action is based on the temporary inhibition of neuromuscular transmission, which leads to selective muscle relaxation and visible reduction of expression lines.

Composition and Formulation
- Active Ingredient: Clostridium Botulinum Toxin Type A – 100 Units
- Excipients: Human Serum Albumin 0.5 mg, Sodium Chloride 0.8 mg
- Form: White or pale-yellow lyophilized powder in a clear glass vial (becomes a transparent solution upon reconstitution with saline)
- Manufacturing Process: Produced via advanced vacuum dehydration technology, which minimizes residue and reduces risk of molecular denaturation compared to traditional lyophilization
- Stability: Maintains labeled potency (95–105%) for at least 12 months under proper refrigerated storage (2–8°C)
Mechanism of Action
Metox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, thereby interrupting the transmission of nerve impulses to the muscle. This produces temporary, localized muscle relaxation, reducing the appearance of dynamic wrinkles while maintaining natural facial expressions.
Key Features and Advantages
- High Purity and Safety: Free from animal-derived proteins, minimizing the risk of allergic reactions and transmission of pathogens.
- Proven Clinical Efficacy: Demonstrated therapeutic equivalence to Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA) in the treatment of glabellar lines.
- Consistency and Reliability: High batch-to-batch reproducibility and stable potency confirmed by long-term evaluations.
- Fast Onset of Action: Noticeable results usually within 3–7 days after treatment.
- Sustained Effect: Improvements last on average 4–6 months, with some patients experiencing longer results depending on dosage and metabolism.
- Minimal Diffusion: Reduced risk of unintended spread to adjacent muscles, ensuring precise and localized correction.
- User-Friendly Preparation: Easy to reconstitute, accurate dosing, and minimal residue due to advanced dehydration technique.
Indications and Applications
Metox is suitable for both aesthetic and therapeutic use:
Aesthetic Applications:
- Glabellar lines (frown lines between eyebrows)
- Forehead wrinkles
- Crow’s feet (periorbital wrinkles)
- Nasolabial folds
- Lip contouring and asymmetry correction
- Neck and décolleté wrinkles
- Facial reshaping and contouring support
Medical Applications:
- Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating)
- Adjunctive treatment in scar management
- Pre-surgical preparation to optimize outcomes
- Muscle activity–related asymmetry corrections
Efficacy and Safety Data
- Clinical trials confirm high patient satisfaction and safety profile.
- Therapeutic equivalence to established products like Botox® proven in comparative studies.
- High tolerance with minimal reported side effects, generally limited to mild and temporary injection-site reactions.
Metox 100 Units represents a refined, high-purity botulinum toxin type A with reliable efficacy and safety. Its advanced manufacturing process, consistent potency, rapid results, and broad application potential make it a trusted solution in aesthetic medicine and therapeutic practice.
