Learn what Allergan Aesthetics has in store for this milestone.

Allergan Aesthetics’ BOTOX Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) turns 20 on April 15, 2022.

This date marks 20 years since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) first approved the product to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe glabellar lines, located between the eyebrows. It was the first product of its kind and has since received two additional aesthetic indications –  in 2013 and 2017 – making BOTOX Cosmetic the first and only neurotoxin that is FDA-approved for adults to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe lines in three areas; frown lines, crow's feet and forehead lines.

In honor of the 20-year milestone, BOTOX Cosmetic launched a documentary style video spotlighting real patients and providers. Real patients share how and why they continue to see BOTOX Cosmetic as a treatment for someone like them. BOTOX Cosmetic continues to celebrate its muses in all their forms, genders, and colors. Starting April 15th, watch the video at www.botoxcosmetic20thcelebration.com and @BotoxCosmetic on social.

"It has been remarkable to see how BOTOX Cosmetic has evolved in 20 years, one scientific study at a time that showcases the clinical significance of this treatment," says Dr. Jean Carruthers, MD, FRCSC, FRC (Poth), in a news release. "BOTOX Cosmetic has not only changed the trajectory of my career but also the way the medical aesthetics community practices and teaches. By any account, two decades is a long time, however in medicine it is just the beginning, and I look forward to the next big milestone for BOTOX Cosmetic."

"This celebration is about reflecting on the people who helped make BOTOX Cosmetic a household name," says Carrie Strom, Senior Vice President, AbbVie, and President, Global Allergan Aesthetics. "We celebrate our customers, our colleagues and all the patients who have been a part of our success. We remain dedicated to BOTOX Cosmetic, the first product of its kind on the market. We are passionate about continuing to drive this market forward and our experienced team is working closely with healthcare providers to ensure we are delivering meaningful innovations that the market needs with our commitment to ongoing research."

BOTOX Cosmetic is bringing its celebration to the public with its first-ever Art Installation which will be on a cross-country tour.
