Jaw Reduction: Is Botox using Neuroxin, safe? (photo)

Question

Hi, I've recently done a jaw reduction treatment in Bangkok, and the aesthetic doctor uses Neuroxin 100 units made in Germany. 3 days after the treatment, I can feel that both sides of my jaw muscle has significantly reduced already. Jawline not significantly reduced yet. However, I have been searching online for the credibility of this product and failed to find any reliable source from and I am getting worried. Please can you give some advice.

Dysport and Botox are the most popular products used around the world and are probably similar (in their formula) to the one you received. Dysport and Botox have been thoroughly tested and researched for their safety and effectiveness, however I am unfamiliar with Neuroxin. You should contact the manufacturer to find out what kind of testing and research has been done for this product and what standards have been met. You should also ask the doctor who performed your treatment.
