After a dramatic shift towards undetectable treatments, the popularity of anti-wrinkle injectables such as Azzalure and Bocouture continues to soar. Quickly becoming the most popular and widely administered treatment worldwide, anti-wrinkle injections are ideal for patients seeking a solution to turn back the hands of time.

With demand for anti-wrinkle treatments at an all-time high, a plethora of new toxins have emerged on the current market.   With an increasing plea for these injectables, patients and practitioners are always searching for innovation in the industry and a new way to anti-wrinkle. Ascending into the toxin sector is a newcomer to the market, Letybo.   An anti-wrinkle solution developed to treat a host of concerns.

What Is Letybo?

Launched by Croma-Pharma in early 2022, Letybo is an anti-wrinkle injectable, indicated for the temporary improvement in the appearance of the glabellar lines in adults under 75 years old (vertical lines between the eyebrows). Letybo, also known as letibotulinumtoxinA, works similarly to many other popular toxin brands, causing temporary paralysis to the muscle in the injected area. When injected, Letybo is intended to relax the muscle to create a more youthful look and soften deep lines and creases.

Although relatively new to the UK, letibotulinumtoxinA is a popular anti-wrinkle solution in other beauty hotspots of the world, especially in parts of Asia. As a market-leading toxin and staple for many, Letybo was developed by the Global Biopharmaceutical Company Hugel in the form of Botulax and is regularly marketed under various other names.

However, it’s important for practitioners and patients to be aware that Botulax is not licensed in the UK and should not be used in any circumstances. Letybo on the other hand, is regulated in the UK and is now available for purchase from the official sub-distributors, Fox Pharma, after a green light from the Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency.

What Is the Qualitative and Quantitative Composition?

Letybo is initially delivered as a white powder for solution injection. A single vial contains 50 units of botulinum toxin type A which is produced by Clostridium botulinum. After reconstitution with a diluent such as Sodium Chloride 0.9% , each 0.1ml of the solution contains 4 units.

The recommended dose of Letybo is a total of 20 units, divided into 5 injections of 4 units each for the treatment of the glabellar lines.

Are There Any Side Effects?

As with most anti-wrinkle toxins, side effects with Letybo are minimal. Some patients may experience minor reactions at the injection site such as swelling and slight bruising. Side effects such as headaches and head discomfort may also occur however, these should subside within 48 hours of treatment with more long-lasting side effects such as twitching eyelids subsiding within 1 to 2 weeks.

Who Is the Ideal Patient for Letybo?

Ideal patients for Letybo would be adults under 75 with concerns of deep to severe glabellar lines. However, patients should always consult with a trained medical professional who will be able to decide the correct mode of action.

Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use Letybo.

The Takeaway

We are elated to have added Letybo to our ever-expanding roster of toxins as the official sub-distributors in the UK. With a huge scope of success for this anti-wrinkle injection, Letybo brings willing practitioners a new way to anti-wrinkle.
