Without a doubt, Botulinum Toxin is the most sought-after
treatment in dermatology today, and its popularity has only grown since the FDA approved Botulinum toxin type A for cosmetic use in April, 2002. This issue will cover the different areas of the face and neck for which Botox can be used as a wrinkle-reducing treatment, including glabellar lines, eyes and
eyebrows, neck lines, and neck bands. Also included in the issue are
discussions on non-cosmetic uses for Botox (e.g., headache), the safe use and storage of the medicine, and the Botox competitors, Myobloc and Dysport.
