Botulinum toxin cosmetics off er you an elegant anti-aging solution, making your wrinkles look soft and natural!
[INQ. NO. 1506C01] The word BOTOX is more than just a brand name but now a household name for wrinkle reduction. Rather than the inconvenience of injection, it has been the dream of the industry to get similar eff ects by applying the core ingredients to cosmetic products. Through years of R&D endeavors, a Korean company, ATGC, has succeeded in developing ‘Botulinum Polypeptide-1,’ bringing it now one step closer to realizing this dream.
Midaskin Co., Ltd. (CEO Myung Hwang) is the only company in Korea developing and selling cosmetic products containing Botulinum Polypeptide-1 and it has launched its set of BoLC A+ Serum/Cream early this May. BuyersGuide therefore conducted an interview with Myung Hwang, the president of Midaskin Co., Ltd. about the newly released products and the company’s future plans.
BG Q: Could you tell us about the BoLC A+ Serum/Cream that has been recently released?
CEO Hwang: There have been controversies in the market when it was revealed that various products referred to as ‘applicable BOTOX’ actually contained ingredients totally unrelated to BOTOX.
However, BoLC A+ of Midaskin contains ‘botulinum derived peptides’ with proven wrinkle diminishing eff ects (over 95% of amino acids that consist of Botulinum Polypeptide-1 is identical to the type A light chain of botulinum protein). Among domestic or global companies, Midaskin has succeeded in the fi rst commercialization of “applicable BOTOX,” which is known to be the world’s fi rst.
When you use Mi – daskin’s serum and cream containing the Botulinum Polypeptide-1 on a regular basis, you will surely experience outstanding whitening and wrinkle-diminishing diminishing effects. Using the serum and cream (containing whitening ingredient) simultaneously will create amazing synergy eff ects.
BG Q: Many people might be unfamiliar with the ingredient, ‘botulinum derived peptides.’ Could you please tell us more about it?
CEO Hwang: Botulinum Polypeptide-1 has been developed after years of research by the Korean company ATGC Co.,Ltd., and the ingredient has been proven to have outstanding wrinkle diminishing and lifting effects to improve the signs of nasolabial folds. The core ingredient of Midaskin Serum and Cream is the very Botulinum Polypeptide-1.” ATGC Co., Ltd. owns the patent for the core ingredient, Botulinum Polypeptide-1.
And, Midaskin is the only Korean company possessing the ingredients for developing cosmetics using Botulinum Polypeptide-1 and marketing it within and outside of South Korea.
Peptide derived from botulinum, with the name ‘Methionyl r-Clostridium Botulinum Polypeptide-1 Hexapeptide-40’ in the ICID (International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary), is the first of its kind to be officially registered as a cosmetic ingredient originating from botulinum, and it has been registered in the Korean cosmetic ingredients dictionary in Dec. 2014. This means that it is now possible for it to be used as a cosmetic ingredient.
BG Q: Thank you for that detailed explanation. Many consumers may get excited about the excellent whitening and wrinkle-diminishing effects. Well, what about safety of the products?
CEO Hwang: The serum and cream carefully launched by Midaskin pursue harmony of natural and science, and it follows our product philosophy based on eliminating harmful ingredients.
Mindful of growing consumer concerns regarding health and safety, our number one priority is the safety of our products and the health of our customers. Therefore, we use safe levels of Botulinum Polypeptide-1. We also completed safety tests and clinical trial on humans to ensure the effi cacy and safety of our products.
Another feature of BoLC A+ is the non-use of five harmful
ingredients such as paraben, phenoxyethanol, mineral oils, etc.
BG Q: Lastly, please let us know about your future plans for the company.
CEO Hwang: The newly launched product actually contains botulinum derived peptides for the first time in the world, and its effects have been proven through clinical tests. We will expand both domestically and internationally the markets through continued development and introduction of high-quality products.
With the launching of the serum set consisting of five bottles of injection container type, along with the cream, we will continue to introduce new products with anti-aging functions and various brands for hospitals and clinics.
