This narrative review discusses expert consensus on the optimal use of botulinum toxin injections for cosmetic applications in facial and oral-maxillofacial areas across Asian and Caucasian populations, highlighting injection techniques, effective doses, historical context, and potential complications.
research Treatment of Male Pattern Baldness with Botulinum Toxin: A Pilot Study
This study suggests that Botox injections may increase hair count and reduce hair loss in men with androgenetic alopecia, potentially through increased blood flow and oxygen to the scalp.
research The Non-Neuronal and Nonmuscular Effects of Botulinum Toxin: An Opportunity for a Deadly Molecule to Treat Disease in the Skin and Beyond
This review discusses the broadening scope of botulinum toxin applications beyond traditional uses, highlighting its effects on non-neuronal cells and potential in treating various dermatological conditions, without reporting new clinical findings.
research Madarosis and Facial Alopecia Presumed Secondary to Botulinum A Toxin Injections
This case report documents unilateral madarosis and facial alopecia as potential adverse effects of botulinum A toxin injections in a patient treated for left oromandibular dystonia.
research A Pilot Study to Evaluate Effectiveness of Botulinum Toxin in Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Males
In this pilot study, botulinum toxin was found to be a safe and effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia in most participants, though larger studies are needed to confirm these findings.
research Treatment Effects of Intradermal Botulinum Toxin Type A Injection on Alopecia Areata
In this study, BTXA injections did not effectively treat recalcitrant alopecia areata or improve hair regrowth in most patients, suggesting its limitations as an alternative therapy.
research Utilities of Botulinum Toxins in Dermatology and Cosmetology
This review discusses the dermatological applications of botulinum toxin, including off-label uses for various skin conditions, and calls for a better understanding of underlying muscular anatomy for effective clinical practice.
research The Effects of Botulinum Toxin A on Wound and Skin Graft Contraction
In this study on rats, botulinum toxin–A injection was reported to reduce contraction in wounds and skin grafts, with changes in inflammation and collagen arrangement also observed.
research The Effect of Intradermal Botulinum Toxin on Androgenetic Alopecia and Its Possible Mechanism
In this study, intradermal injection of botulinum toxin was associated with increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia through the suppression of TGF-β1 secretion from dermal papilla cells.
research Effectiveness and Safety of Botulinum Toxin Type A in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
In this study of patients with androgenetic alopecia, botulinum toxin type A was found to significantly increase hair counts and improve hair density and coverage, with enhanced results observed when combined with oral finasteride, revealing a safe and effective treatment approach without adverse effects.
research Parry-Romberg Syndrome Vasculopathy and Its Treatment With Botulinum Toxin
In this case study, repetitive botulinum type A toxin injections led to almost complete resolution of severe chronic pain in a patient with Parry-Romberg syndrome.
research Therapeutic Effect of Botulinum Toxin on Scalp Alopecia: Physiopathology and Reported Cases - A Systematic Review
This systematic review found inconclusive evidence on the effectiveness of botulinum toxin for treating alopecia and highlighted the need for further prospective randomized controlled trials.
research A Small Dose of Botulinum Toxin A Is Effective for Treating Androgenetic Alopecia in Chinese Patients
Small Botox dose effectively treats hair loss in Chinese men.
research Frontal Alopecia After Repeated Botulinum Toxin Type A Injections for Forehead Wrinkles: An Underestimated Entity?
This study reports that women receiving periodic injections of botulinum toxin type A for forehead wrinkles may experience frontal alopecia, with progressive hairline recession observed in the cases studied.
research Prevention of Unfavorable Effects of Cigarette Smoke on Flap Viability Using Botulinum Toxin in Random Pattern Flaps: An Experimental Study
This study found that botulinum toxin type A significantly reduced skin flap necrosis in rats exposed to cigarette smoke, suggesting it may help improve flap viability in smokers.
research Radiation-Induced Alopecia Treated with Botulinum Toxin Type A Injection
In this case study, Botulinum toxin type A injections were associated with improved hair growth and scalp condition in a patient with radiation-induced alopecia, though the mechanisms remain speculative.
research Intrauterine Botulinum Toxin A Administration Promotes Endometrial Regeneration Mediated by IGFBP3-Dependent OPN Proteolytic Cleavage in Thin Endometrium
This study found that intrauterine administration of botulinum toxin A improved endometrial environment and receptivity in a murine model of thin endometrium through mechanisms involving IGFBP3 and osteopontin.
research Lateral Oblique Forehead Lines: Redefining Sleeping Lines and Treatment with Botulinum Toxin A
The study suggests that lateral oblique forehead lines result from muscle contractions and can be effectively treated with onabotulinum toxin A, rather than being caused by sleeping position.
