  • By the makers of BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA), SkinMedica®'s new packaging features a refreshed logo, modernized look, and luxe copper color palette.
  • The brand's new HA moisturizer is designed to support the skin barrier and microbiome for bouncy, dewy, and soft skin.

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company (NYSE:ABBV), today announced the rollout of SkinMedica®'s reimagined packaging—a modernized look that elevates the consumer experience while advancing sustainability. The updated design features a refreshed logo, luxe copper accents, and intuitive navigation cues that make it easier for consumers to select the right products.

"As a leader in professional skincare, SkinMedica® is committed to delivering not only innovative formulas but also thoughtful design that meets the needs of today's consumers," said Glen Curran, Senior Vice President, U.S. Allergan Aesthetics. "The refreshed packaging represents the next chapter of SkinMedica®, bringing clarity, confidence, and sustainability to every touchpoint."

Expanded Benefits of the Packaging Redesign:

  • Modern, luxe packaging that guides consumers – A refreshed logo, simplified layout, clean typography, and luxe copper accents bring clarity and confidence to product selection. At the same time, intuitive design and color cues make product navigation easier than ever.
  • Lower impact, same performance – Ninety percent of packaging components by weight and 100% of secondary cartons are recyclable, contributing to a 71% reduction in landfill waste (over 550,000 pounds annually*).1 These improvements lay the groundwork for innovation that supports both sustainability and the skincare routines of tomorrow.
  • Upgrades to TNS® Advanced+ Serum – A new separate dual-pump system improves reliability and consistency, paired with an enhanced design that provides better dispensing control.

Debuting alongside the packaging redesign is the launch of the SkinMedica® HA Hydra Collagen Water Burst Moisturizer, a first-of-its-kind formula that quenches skin with up to 24-hour hydration while supporting a healthy skin barrier and microbiome. Designed to layer effortlessly with the HA Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator for even deeper hydration, this moisturizer marks the latest milestone in the brand's hydration-driven collection.

Key Ingredients and Benefits:

  • HA Hydra Collagen Complex – A proprietary blend of five forms of hyaluronic acid plus vegan Hydra Collagen that delivers immediate hydration and smoothness.
  • Microbiome Barrier Complex – An advanced nutrient system with prebiotics, a plant-based carbohydrate and lactobacillus ferment, that helps support the skin barrier, maintain the skin's natural microbiome, and protect the skin from environmental aggressors.
  • Innovative Water-Burst Formula – Unique cascading emollient blend creates the water burst sensation with a lightweight, non-greasy texture, leaving skin feeling hydrated.

"Most people experience dry skin at some point, but the issue can become more pronounced with age. As natural levels of hyaluronic acid and collagen decline, and nutrient flow between skin layers slows, the skin's ability to retain moisture diminishes," said Dr. Mona Gohara, board-certified dermatologist. "While many moisturizers offer temporary relief, the SkinMedica® HA Hydra Collagen Water Burst Moisturizer goes further—delivering up to 24 hours of hydration and boosting moisture levels by 25% after a single application1. It's a meaningful new option I can share with patients seeking dewy, resilient, and healthy-looking skin."

In addition to the moisturizer, the following products will receive immediate upgrades: TNS® Advanced+ Serum, Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment, AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser, and Essential Defense Mineral Shield™ Broad Spectrum SPF 35 Sunscreen. All remaining SkinMedica® products will transition to the new packaging over the course of the next year.

SkinMedica® HA Hydra Collagen Water Burst Moisturizer ($78) is available for purchase at SkinMedica.com, and through a network of licensed physicians and medically supervised spas. Consumers can build their complete HAroutine by pairing the moisturizer with the HA Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator and HA Hydra Collagen Hydrating Foaming Cleanser for comprehensive hydration support.

BOTOX® COSMETIC IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION AND APPROVED USES 

Approved Uses

BOTOX® Cosmetic is a prescription medicine that is injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the look of moderate to severe forehead lines, crow's feet lines, frown lines between the eyebrows, and vertical bands connecting the jaw and neck (platysma bands) in adults.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

BOTOX® Cosmetic may cause serious side effects that can be life threatening. Get medical help right away if you have any of these problems any time (hours to weeks) after injection of BOTOX® Cosmetic:

  • Problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing, due to weakening of associated muscles, which can be severe and result in loss of life. You are at the highest risk if these problems are preexisting before injection. Swallowing problems may last for several months.
  • Spread of toxin effects. The effect of botulinum toxin may affect areas away from the injection site and cause serious symptoms, including loss of strength and all-over muscle weakness, double vision, blurred vision and drooping eyelids, hoarseness or change or loss of voice, trouble saying words clearly, loss of bladder control, trouble breathing, and trouble swallowing.

BOTOX® Cosmetic dosing units are not the same as, or comparable to, any other botulinum toxin product.

There has not been a confirmed serious case of spread of toxin effect when BOTOX® Cosmetic has been used at the recommended dose to treat frown lines, crow's feet lines, forehead lines, and/or platysma bands.

BOTOX® Cosmetic may cause loss of strength or general muscle weakness, vision problems, or dizziness within hours to weeks of receiving BOTOX® Cosmetic. If this happens, do not drive a car, operate machinery, or do other dangerous activities.

Serious and/or immediate allergic reactions have been reported, including itching, rash, red itchy welts, wheezing, asthma symptoms, or dizziness or feeling faint. Get medical help right away if you are wheezing or have asthma symptoms, or if you become dizzy or faint.

This list may not include all available botulinum toxin products.

Tell your doctor about all your muscle or nerve conditions, such as ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, as you may be at increased risk of serious side effects, including difficulty swallowing and difficulty breathing, from standard doses of BOTOX® Cosmetic.

Tell your doctor about all the medicines you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Using BOTOX® Cosmetic with certain other medicines may cause serious side effects. Do not start any new medicines until you have told your doctor that you have received BOTOX® Cosmetic in the past.

Tell your doctor if you have received any other botulinum toxin product in the last 4 months; have received injections of botulinum toxin such as Myobloc, Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, Daxxify, or Letybo in the past (tell your doctor exactly which product you received); have recently received an antibiotic by injection; take muscle relaxants; take an allergy or cold medicine; take a sleep medicine; or take aspirin-like products or blood thinners.
