Go to my grandparents’ basement and look through their stockpile of canned goods from the 1970s.

Botox is produced by first cultivating the Clostridium botulinum bacteria, then extracting and purifying the neurotoxin, and finally formulating it into a stable, sterile product. The purified toxin is combined with human serum albumin and saline, freeze-dried, and vacuum-sealed in vials under strict quality control to ensure safety and potency. The manufacturing process for the brand-name BOTOX is carried out by Allergan Aesthetics/AbbVie, with the final product packaged and distributed to healthcare providers worldwide.
