Additional information
BOCOUTURE 50U is a botulinum toxin type A developed by Merz Pharmaceuticals, specifically formulated to smooth dynamic wrinkles and address medical conditions related to muscle overactivity. It is particularly effective in treating glabellar lines, crow’s feet, and forehead wrinkles by temporarily relaxing the underlying muscles. BOCOUTURE stands out for its high purity, as it contains no complexing proteins, reducing the risk of developing resistance over time. Its precision and reliability make it a trusted solution for both aesthetic and therapeutic applications.
Main Treatment Areas
- Aesthetic Use – Wrinkle Reduction: BOCOUTURE 50U is primarily used to treat:
- Glabellar Lines (frown lines): Vertical wrinkles between the eyebrows.
- Crow’s Feet: Fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes.
- Forehead Lines: Horizontal wrinkles across the forehead.
- Medical Use – Neuromuscular Conditions: BOCOUTURE is also effective in managing neuromuscular conditions such as cervical dystonia and blepharospasm (involuntary eyelid closure). It helps to relieve muscle stiffness and spasms, improving patient comfort and functionality.
Key Benefits

Frequently Asked Questions
While both Botox (produced by Allergan) and Bocouture (produced by Merz Pharmaceuticals) are botulinum toxin type A products, their units are not directly interchangeable. Although both products work similarly by temporarily relaxing muscles to reduce wrinkles or treat neuromuscular conditions, the specific potency of each product differs due to the manufacturing process.
- Botox units and Bocouture units are measured differently, meaning 1 unit of Botox does not equal 1 unit of Bocouture.
- The formulations differ in terms of their components: Bocouture is a purified form of botulinum toxin without complexing proteins, which may reduce the risk of developing resistance over time, while Botox contains these proteins.
For these reasons, it is important for healthcare professionals to adjust dosing appropriately when switching between Botox and Bocouture.
Azzalure and Bocouture are both botulinum toxin type A products, but they have different formulations and uses, which can make them seem stronger or more effective depending on the context.
- Azzalure is marketed primarily for aesthetic use (to treat glabellar lines) and has a different diffusion rate than Bocouture. Some practitioners may perceive Azzalure to have a broader spread, which can be useful in treating larger areas.
- Bocouture, on the other hand, has a more precise and controlled effect, with less diffusion. It is particularly valued for areas where targeted precision is needed.
Strength in this case is subjective and depends on the treatment area and desired outcome. Azzalure may seem “stronger” for larger treatment areas due to its spread, while Bocouture may be favored for precision treatments.
Both products are highly effective, but the “strength” depends on the specific application and patient needs.
