A short educational/clinical talk explaining why Xeomin (released in 2011) is described as a "cleaner" botulinum neurotoxin compared with other brands like Botox. The speaker contrasts the molecular composition—Xeomin as a 150 kilodalton core versus larger complexes (≈750 kilodalton) associated with other products—and discusses antibody formation and resistance risks, especially in higher-dose medical indications where insurance often covers treatment.

2011, out came Xeomin. Now, Xeomin came out for very specific indication. It was what they would call a cleaner toxin. It's an oxymoron. The most potent toxin known to man is the Botox brand. Of course, we're using minute doses, and some people get antibodies to the neurotoxin where it stops working. And it's very rare in cosmetic indications. But for medical indications, we're using much higher uses. Bear in mind that most toxins are paid for by insurance for medical uses. And they get immune to it and eventually it doesn't work. So Xeomin Maida took the toxin, which is very small. It's called, called 150 kilodaltons and has a 750 kilodalton core around it. That's what Botox is human pulled that core off. And this has the ideal toxin that might be suitable for people that are using more units or people starting very young. They'll never get resistant to Botox.
