The official website for the anti-aging treatment Pretox By Medik 8 tells us that this treatment has been designed as an injection free alternative to Botox. According to the manufacturers Pretox By Medik 8 is a muscle relaxant gel in a liposome delivery system. We are told that Pretox By Medik 8 releases an amount of nerve stimulant on the local muscle tissue being targeted. We are further told that it does not paralyse the muscle as Botox does, but instead reduces the strength of specific muscles contractions, which relaxes the muscles and leads to a diminishment of lines and wrinkles on the face. We are told that the effect will particularly be found on the forehead and around the eyes.
Product Details
The official website for Pretox By Medik 8 is well constructed with before and after photos posted. Diagrams on the website also seek to illustrate the technology behind Pretox By Medik 8 and how it affects the skin. We are told that the ingredients in this product consist of inoffensive hexapeptides comprised of amino acids. We are not however given a list of precise ingredients in Pretox By Medix 8 which means that it is rather difficult to assess the potential efficacy of this product. Of course some women who are not keen on injections but who wish to acquire a Botox like effect may be drawn in by the marketing of this product which tells us that it is an injection free alternative to Botox. However there are now a number of other products on the market that have potent anti-aging formulations as well. Clinical Trials have shown, for example, that combined peptide combinations such as Matrixyl 3000 can have effect on the signs of aging.
The Good
- There is a detailed and well constructed website for Pretox by Medik 8.
- There are before and after pictures.
- Pretox By Medik 8 can be purchased directly online.
The Bad
- Pretox By Medik 8 is not the only product that is marketed as a safe alternative to Botox injections.
- We are given no precise ingredient details.
- There is no offer of a free trial sample.
- There does not seem to be an offer of a money back guarantee upon purchase of Pretox By Medik 8.
The Bottom Line
At the end of the day the fact that we are given no precise ingredient details for Pretox By Medik 8 means that we are unable to properly assess this product in relation to other anti-aging products on the market. As things stand we have no clinical evidence that it achieves superior results than other products which are also marketed as being alternatives to Botox.
