Little cause for worry with storage of Botox beyond set time
Published: March 01, 2007

If you're keeping an open, reconstituted vial of botulinum A exotoxin (Botox, manufactured by Allergan Pharmaceuticals in Irvine, CA) for more than four hours before drawing another dose to inject, you're going counter to the manufacturer's instructions ap-proved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Although some plastic surgeons abide by this cautious approach, most say keeping open vials longer than the directions state is standard practice.

Online Quote:

About Wrinkles - "While there is no data to support the claim, you could argue that, by using Botox early in life, one can slow down the natural process of wrinkle formation on the face," says Elan Singer, M.D., a plastic surgeon in Montclair, New Jersey. "Wrinkles are formed by years and years of muscle activity that causes permanent indentations in the skin. Thus, if you decrease muscle activity with Botox before those wrinkles form, they will appear much later in life than if no Botox had been used. That's only a theory but it makes sense."
