Botulinum toxin is a versatile treatment that can be used to address various aesthetic concerns. The most common areas for botulinum toxin treatments include:
The difference in pricing depends on several factors such as brand of the botulinum toxin, the number of units injected, the area/indication to be injected, doctor's expertise, and personalised treatment plan.
There are several types of botulinum toxin approved for cosmetic and therapeutic use. The most widely used types include:
OnabotulinumtoxinA: This type of botulinum toxin most is well-known and is widely used for both cosmetic and medical treatments.
AbobotulinumtoxinA: This type of botulinum toxin is often used for treating facial wrinkles and has a slightly different formulation, which can lead to different diffusion properties and onset times compared to botilinum toxin.
IncobotulinumtoxinA: This type of botulinum toxin is unique because it does not contain any accessory proteins, which may reduce the risk of antibody formation.
The number of units injected and administered during your treatment depends on the indication, strength of your muscle, gender and the botulinum toxin types used. The number of units between brands are not equivalent. While the number of units injected must have a clinical effect, a cautious approach is taken to avoid overdosing and reducing complications.
Although botulinum toxin injections have been around for more than 20 years, the cosmetic indications for both on-label and off-label treatment area have grown due to a greater understanding of anatomy, product characteristics and safety profile. The treatment area relates to:
A doctor's expertise is crucial for carrying out botulinum toxin treatments for the following reasons:
The main differences between the various botulinum toxin types include their formulation, unit potency, diffusion properties, onset of action, and duration of effects. Here’s a detailed comparison of the major brands:
A follow up in 2 weeks allows your doctor to assess the treatment effects, correct any remaining lines and determine if other aesthetic treatments would be needed to enhance your results.
A top up, if any, is provided free of charge 2 weeks from your initial treatment. We do not recommend doing touch ups within a short period of time from your initial treatment as it raises the chance of resistance to future treatments.
Selecting the right clinic is essential to ensure efficacy, safety and satisfaction with your treatment. Here are some factors you should consider so that you can make an informed decision and choose a reputable clinic that provides this service:
You should choose a clinic that offers a medical consultation and facial assessment. This is after all a medical procedure, and a discussion on suitability, alternative treatments, potential side effects are necessary before embarking on any treatment.
Your doctor should have the required knowledge, skills and technique to inject/administer the treatment. An experienced injector is more sensitive to the nuances to the variations of facial anatomy and can reduce injection related complications.
Read online reviews from patients who had the procedure done at clinic. Word of mouth from family or friends who had done the botulinum toxin procedure and are happy with their results.
The clinic should provide a clear and transparent pricing of your botulinum toxin treatment, including additional fees. While pricing is an important factor, it should not be your sole factor. The quality of care, expertise and follow up care is important to achieve safe and effective results.
Dr Ng believes that follow up care is important to monitor your progress, address any concerns you may have and to tackle any complications should they arise.
We only use FDA-approved botulinum toxin products, ensuring you receive safe and effective treatments. They have reliable sources for their products, preventing issues related to counterfeit or substandard botulinum toxin.

A botulinum toxin treatment is designed for individuals looking to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and fine lines. Individuals in their 20-30s use it to delay the signs of ageing. Individuals in their 30-60s use it to treat existing wrinkles and to prevent new ones from forming.
While botulinum toxin treatments can be a highly effective treatment for reducing the appearance of wrinkles and treating certain medical conditions, it is not suitable for everyone. The following are key factors that may make someone unsuitable for such treatments:
Body Dysmorphic Disorder: Individuals with body dysmorphic disorder or other severe psychological conditions may not be suitable candidates, as they might not be satisfied with the results of any cosmetic treatment.
Botulinum toxin injections are mainly indicated for dynamic wrinkles. These wrinkles are obvious with facial movements; smiling, frowning and looking surprised. Static wrinkles, on the other hand, do not respond to botulinum toxin injections. From studies, static wrinkles are better treated with laser or energy-based resurfacing procedures.
Between the 3 common brands of botulinum toxin, the average time to see results is 3-7 days. Some individuals would be able to appreciate a difference within 24hours.
The cosmetic effect of botulinum toxin treatments initially lasts for 4 months, but gradually increases to 6 months or more with regular treatments as the muscles are more relaxed.
For the treatment of axillary hyperhydrosis, a significant reduction in sweating is noticed within 2 weeks, and results lasts 6-7 months.
Botulinum toxin is injected into the muscle causing the muscle to relax, improving the appearance of the lines. Botulinum toxin works by binding to receptors that send nerve signals for muscles to contract. Since your body is constantly making new receptors and neurotransmitters all the time, future botulinum toxin treatments will be needed to maintain the relaxed and smooth appearance. If treatments are not kept up the wrinkles will slowly return as the muscle regains function over time. Botilinum toxin takes generally two weeks to start working optimally and lasts for up to six months.
Studies have shown that treating multiple facial wrinkles are associated with improved outcomes. For example, simultaneous treatment of lateral canthal lines (crow’s feet) and glabellar (frown lines) revealed better cosmetic benefit.
For some reasons, some patients may develop antibodies to botulinum toxin treatments. The risk of immunogenicity is higher with top ups within a short period of time and re-treatments less than 4 months.
The price of botulinum toxin treatment depends on the number of units required.
Common areas include the forehead lines, glabellar (frown lines) and wrinkles around the eyes (Crow’s feet)
A review is done within 2 weeks, and a touch up is done free of charge within this time if necessary.
