Why we carry Botox (Allergan)
Allergan (now AbbVie) Botox is the original botulinum-toxin product — FDA-approved in 1989 for ophthalmic use and 2002 for cosmetic use. Three decades of clinical evidence, the largest published safety dataset in aesthetic medicine, and the brand most physicians worldwide trained on.
At Waleerat Clinic we stock Allergan Botox for patients who specifically request the original brand or who prioritise the longest available clinical track record. The molecule is botulinum toxin Type A (onabotulinumtoxinA) — identical mechanism to Dysport and Xeomin, but with different complex-protein formulations that affect onset speed, diffusion pattern, and dose-conversion ratios.
Pricing tier: premium. ฿8,000 / area reflects the manufacturer's R&D + safety-evidence premium relative to Korean alternatives (Hutox, Neuronox) at ฿3,000–฿5,000. We discuss the clinical and budgetary trade-offs at consult — most patients land on Allergan or Dysport for the first treatment, then optimise based on their personal response.

Dysport (Ipsen)
Ipsen's botulinum toxin. Faster onset than Allergan Botox. Preferred for time-sensitive aesthetic timelines.

Merz's 'naked' botulinum toxin — no accessory complex proteins. Lowest immune-resistance profile of the three FDA-approved Type-A toxins.
