Are domestic or imported wrinkle-removing needles better? The difference between domestic and imported wrinkle-removing needles

Many people have tried many methods to remove facial wrinkles. Wrinkle-removing injections are a very effective method. Wrinkle-removing injections are generally available in both domestic and imported versions, and their prices and effects are different.

There are two brands of botulinum toxin that are certified and legal in China. One is Hengli produced by Lanzhou Biopharmaceutical Factory, and the other is Botox imported from the United States. So how to correctly view domestic and imported wrinkle-removing needles? We must abandon prejudices, scientifically understand their differences and advantages and disadvantages, and make the right choice based on our actual situation. Many people may think that imported wrinkle-removing needles must be better than domestic ones. This view is incorrect. According to many years of clinical practice, domestic Hengli still has many advantages compared with imported Botox.

The difference between imported wrinkle-removing needles and domestic wrinkle-removing needles:

1. The production processes are different. Botox uses a vacuum drying process to turn liquid into solid. Hengli uses a freeze drying process to turn solid into solid.

2. The auxiliary ingredients are different. The auxiliary ingredient of Botox is human albumin; the auxiliary ingredient of Hengli is gelatin.

3. Different diffusion properties. Botox has a small diffusion property, and its diffusion radius is 5mm; Hengli has a large diffusion property, and its diffusion radius is 10mm.

4. The clinical application time is different. The clinical application time of Botox is more than 20 years; the clinical application time of Hengli is 10 years.

Imported wrinkle-removing needles are more expensive in terms of price, duration and ingredients. The ingredients of imported wrinkle-removing needles are purer than those of domestic ones. Imported wrinkle-removing needles are obviously better than domestic ones. It is recommended that those who love beauty choose imported wrinkle-removing needles if their economic conditions permit. At the same time, you must do a good job of postoperative care and preoperative preparation after wrinkle-removing needle beauty treatment. Do not abuse drugs before and after the operation to avoid drug poisoning.

1. Ingredients

The ingredient of imported wrinkle-removing injections is natural purified protein, while the domestic ones are pig gelatin. People with allergies will have allergic reactions to pig gelatin and should use them with caution.

2. Application time

Imported wrinkle-removing injections have been used clinically abroad for more than 20 years, and domestic ones have been used in China for more than 10 years. There is almost no difference between the two wrinkle-removing injections. Botulinum toxin injections for wrinkle removal use botulinum toxin to block the transmission of nerve signals between nerves and muscles, thereby relaxing the over-contracted muscles of the face, and then eliminating dynamic wrinkles. The wrinkle-removing principles of the two wrinkle-removing injections are the same, and the effects produced after injection are the same.

3. Dispersion

The molecular weight of imported wrinkle-removing needles is greater than that of domestic wrinkle-removing needles, so the diffusion degree is less than that of domestic wrinkle-removing needles. The diffusion capacity of domestic products may be greater than that of imported products. The diffusion capacity of domestic products is relatively larger, but it does not affect the efficacy, but it requires a higher technical level of the injection physician. Therefore, when choosing domestic botulinum toxin for wrinkle removal, you must choose a physician with a higher level of skill to complete it, and the accuracy is the same as that of imported botulinum toxin.

4. Maintaining time

Imported wrinkle-removing injections last longer than domestic ones. There is almost no difference in the duration between the two types of wrinkle-removing injections. Both types of injections have quick and obvious wrinkle-removing effects. The injection effect usually lasts for 3 to 6 months, with an average of 4 months. It can be combined with TOOFOB for treatment to make the injection last longer and prevent the harm caused by repeated injections.

5. Price

Imported products are more expensive than domestic ones. Botox is imported, so in addition to production and transportation costs plus tariffs, the price is of course higher, generally around 3,000 yuan. Hengli Botox is domestically produced, with low production and distribution costs, so the price is relatively lower. Generally around 1,000 yuan. Domestic Hengli is significantly higher than imported Botox. Domestic Hengli is suitable for students, newcomers in the workplace, and beauty lovers who pursue cost-effectiveness. American Botox is more suitable for white-collar workers, office workers, and beauty lovers who pursue high-end beauty.

6. Antibodies

If you take too many domestic wrinkle-removing injections, antibodies will easily form in your body, and no matter how many times you take them, they will not be effective. The chance of antibodies forming with imported wrinkle-removing injections is very small. The chance of antibodies forming after Botox injection is small; the chance of antibodies forming after Hengli injection is relatively large. If you take too many injections, it is easy to develop drug resistance, which will affect the wrinkle-removing effect.

7. Safety

There is no difference between the two wrinkle-removing injections. Botox, produced in the United States, uses human albumin as an auxiliary ingredient, which is safe and reliable. It is a world-best-selling botulinum toxin. According to incomplete statistics, 63 countries in the world are using Botox, which is produced by a well-known pharmaceutical company. The domestic Hengli is the only legal botulinum toxin brand produced by Lanzhou Biopharmaceutical Factory. The auxiliary ingredient is gelatin, which is partially degraded from the collagen in connective tissues such as animal skin, bone, fascia, and myometrium. Among them, the edible and medicinal grades are a kind of low-calorie health food with high nutritional value, which is widely used in food additives and pharmaceutical production. At the same time, the production and clinical application of Hengli are strictly controlled and certified by the state before they are allowed to enter the market and clinical applications. Ten years of clinical application have shown that the safety of domestic Hengli is almost the same as that of imported Botox. Hengli botulinum toxin is very popular in the Asian market, especially among Korean and Japanese women.

First, fillers are injected under the skin to temporarily fill the skin. The principle is similar to injecting saline under the skin, except that saline will be completely absorbed by the body within half an hour, while these fillers can only be completely absorbed by the body after several months or up to a year, and wrinkles will reappear soon. At the same time, these products cannot prevent the continued breakage and loss of skin collagen, and skin wrinkles will continue to deepen even if fillers are injected.

Second, other products can cause unbearable pain during injection. The wrinkle-removing injection contains a small amount of lidocaine to reduce the pain during the injection. At the same time, the injection needle specially made by Artevo is very small and easy to operate, so there is only very slight pain during the injection process. Especially for fillers such as hyaluronic acid, the pain is more severe.

Third, the collagen in the wrinkle-removing injection helps blood coagulation, and rarely causes bruising. Generally, you can go out after the injection. Other products are prone to bruising, and it takes a long time, which makes it difficult for customers to accept. You can wash your face after a day of injection.

Precautions before injection:

1: First of all, we should treat it correctly and realize that the appearance of wrinkles is a natural physiological process that happens to everyone. Injections can only remove wrinkles but cannot change the natural aging process of the skin.

2. Before deciding on the surgery, you should have a rough idea of ​​your health condition, such as whether you have high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, whether your liver and kidney function are normal, whether your lungs are normal, whether you have infectious diseases, blood diseases, allergies, etc.

3. If you decide to have surgery, you must choose a plastic surgeon who has extensive experience and is formally qualified to practice medicine. Do not blindly seek medical advice, and explain your views and requirements to the doctor, understand and consult about the surgery, and try to communicate with the doctor and reach a consensus.

Precautions after injection:

1: Do not take a sauna bath within one week after wrinkle removal, and do not take drugs containing aspirin or other drugs that hinder the body's coagulation function within one week after the injection.

2. Within 24 hours after injection into the human body, in order to make the wrinkle removal effect more perfect and fix the skin shape after wrinkle removal, you need to avoid touching the injection site with your hands, and do not apply cold or hot compresses to the injection site to cause unnecessary new wrinkles.

3. After the injection of anti-wrinkle injection, do not eat any spicy food or food that can make the body heat up and easily cause endocrine abnormalities. Also, avoid any unnecessary strenuous exercise. Maintain the normal skin care procedures after the injection, but do not massage the injection site.
