Liztox 100 – Korean Botulinum Toxin Type A for Refined Aesthetic and Therapeutic Results
1. Overview & Manufacturer
Liztox 100 is a botulinum toxin type A product developed by Humedix Co., Ltd., a well-established South Korean biopharmaceutical company. Humedix is known for producing advanced injectables and aesthetic products that meet GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards.
Liztox is designed for precision wrinkle correction, facial contouring, and neuromuscular therapy, offering a reliable alternative to premium brands like Botox® and Dysport® at a more accessible price point.
2. Composition & Packaging
-
Each vial contains 100 units of Clostridium botulinum toxin type A, in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form
-
Requires reconstitution with 0.9% sterile saline (NaCl) before use
-
Produced with high purity and low protein load, helping reduce the risk of neutralizing antibody formation with repeated use
3. Mechanism of Action
Liztox blocks the release of acetylcholine at the neuromuscular junction, which temporarily relaxes targeted muscles. This leads to:
-
Softening of facial wrinkles caused by muscle movement
-
Reduction of muscle mass in selected areas (e.g., jaw, trapezius)
-
Control of excessive glandular activity, such as sweating
-
Relief from muscle-related therapeutic conditions
4. Key Clinical Advantages
-
✅ Fast onset: Visible effects can start within 2–4 days
-
⏳ Long-lasting: Results typically persist for 3 to 6 months
-
💉 Smooth, consistent diffusion: Ideal for both small, detailed corrections and broader zones like the forehead
-
💰 Cost-effective: High clinical performance at a more affordable price compared to Western brands
-
🌍 Exported globally: Increasingly used across Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East
