Azzalure® Botulinum is used to treat deep frown lines that appear vertically between the eyebrows. The medicine can improve appearance by improving the overall facial expression and making the individual look less unhappy and more inviting to approach. The positive effects of Azzalure can have a psychological effect on the individual making them more confident with their appearance.
How does Azzalure® Botulinum work in the body?
An active ingredient called botulinum toxin type A is derived from Clostridium botulinum, a type of bacteria. The toxin’s role is to stop nerves from carrying out their normal function. By preventing the release of significant chemicals, muscle contraction is also inhibited. The positive effect is to make muscles between the eyebrows relaxed, diminishing the appearance of vertical frown lines. The effect is only temporary and further treatments can be given every three months.
When will results first start to be visible?
Results will first start to be visible after 3 days.
How long will the result last?
The effect can last for up to four months.

There is a range of side effects that range from common, slightly common, not common, and rare. It is important to be aware that dizziness, blurry vision, and muscle weakness may occur following treatment which means that you should not drive or use any machines until the symptoms have cleared. If you experience any problems with swallowing food or breathing or being able to speak clearly, see your doctor straight away.
If you use Azzalure more than required, your body will start to make antibodies to fight against the drug as it will treat it as a foreign body and begin to invade it, which will render the effects of Azzalure ineffective. It is advisable to wait at least 3 months before having any subsequent treatment.
Please note Azzalure composition includes albumin from human blood, which means there is a possible risk of viral infection. Please take this into consideration before starting treatment.
