Neurobloc® became available in the U.K. in 2001.

There is limited experience in the use of this type of toxin, and the product does not currently have approval for cosmetic use anywhere in the world.

As a result of this very few U.K. practitioners have any experience in the use of this product for lines and wrinkles.
