What’s the science behind Botox injections for androgenetic alopecia? Small published studies and a 2025 meta-analysis report hair-count gains from scalp botulinum toxin injections, but nearly all of them lack control groups, and reviewers of the same literature call the evidence low-quality; the treatment is off-label and not approved for hair loss anywhere.
