Abstract

Botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX, Dysport) has revolutionized treatment of wrinkles around the eyes. Since the first publications of its cosmetic benefit by Drs. Jean and Alastair Carruthers, hundreds of articles have been published about its cosmetic use. BOTOX holds U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval in the United States for treatment of glabellar lines. BOTOX is in widespread use worldwide and is currently the most popular cosmetic treatment in the United States.
