Myobloc for Botox Resistance in Orange County | Advanced Wrinkle Treatment
When Botox Stops Working: Myobloc Could Be the Answer
At Plump Medical Spa, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all injectables. If you’ve been using Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin for years and are noticing diminished effects, you’re not imagining things. Toxin resistance is real—and Myobloc might be the solution you didn’t know existed.
What Is Myobloc?
Myobloc (rimabotulinumtoxinB) is a type B botulinum toxin—unlike Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin, which are type A toxins. It works similarly by blocking nerve signals to muscles, but it’s chemically distinct. That difference makes it a valuable option for patients who’ve developed resistance to type A neurotoxins.
Who Might Need Myobloc?
You may be a candidate if you:
No longer respond to Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin
Notice shorter duration, weak onset, or "patchy" results
Want to avoid surgery but still need wrinkle reduction
Have a history of high toxin use or immunogenicity
What Areas Can Myobloc Treat?
While most commonly used for:
Frown lines
Forehead wrinkles
Crow’s feet
…it may also be used in more functional areas like masseter reduction or traptox in resistant patients. A personalized consultation determines if you’re a match.

FAQs: Myobloc for Botox Resistance in Orange County
Q: How is Myobloc different from Botox or Dysport?
Myobloc is a botulinum toxin type B, making it a completely different molecular structure from the type A toxins like Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin.
Q: Will Myobloc give the same results?
Yes, it still reduces wrinkles and muscle activity—but may work slightly faster and may feel different depending on the area treated.
Q: How long does Myobloc last?
Most clients see results that last 2–3 months, though this varies based on individual metabolism and dose.
Q: Is Myobloc FDA-approved?
Yes, Myobloc is FDA-approved, originally for cervical dystonia. Its aesthetic use is considered off-label but backed by clinical research.
Q: Can I go back to Botox later?
Yes, switching back is possible. Myobloc doesn’t prevent future use of other toxins, and rotating between types may even help reduce long-term resistance.
