In aesthetic clinical practice, botulinum toxin type A (BoNT-A) is best known for its use as a neuromodulator for the treatment of dynamic facial lines; however, when injected intradermally as microdroplets, BoNT-A can improve skin quality and overall skin appearance.
To discuss key aspects of microtoxin use in clinical practice and provide expert guidance on utilization.
As part of a continuing medical education lecture series and roundtable, the authors discussed key aspects of microtoxin patient selection, injection technique, and safety.
The experiences of expert faculty are shared here. Clinical experience is consistent with reported data. Microtoxin can be used to reduce pore size, sebum production, rosacea, acne, and fine lines, and to improve jawline and neck definition. Intradermal injection can also be employed for the improvement of transverse neck lines as well as for the safe prevention and management of scars and keloids.
Expanding the use of BoNT-A, a predictable, minimally invasive, and affordable treatment to address commonly encountered complaints is appealing. The authors have found that making patients aware of microtoxin as a treatment option results in an increased interest in and utilization of BoNT-A, and high satisfaction among appropriately selected patients.
在美容临床实践中，肉毒毒素 A 型（BoNT-A）作为一种神经调节剂，用于治疗动态面部皱纹，最为人所熟知；然而，当以微滴形式皮内注射时，BoNT-A 可以改善皮肤质量和整体皮肤外观。
讨论微毒素在临床实践中的使用要点，并提供使用方面的专家指导。
作为继续医学教育讲座系列和圆桌会议的一部分，作者讨论了微毒素患者选择、注射技术和安全性的关键方面。
这里分享专家教师的经验。临床经验与报告数据一致。微毒素可用于减少毛孔大小、皮脂分泌、酒渣鼻、痤疮和细纹，并改善下颌线和颈部轮廓。皮内注射也可用于改善横向颈纹，以及安全预防和管理疤痕和瘢痕疙瘩。
将一种可预测、微创且负担得起的治疗方法——肉毒毒素 A 扩大应用于解决常见的投诉是很有吸引力的。作者发现，让患者了解微毒素作为一种治疗选择，会增加他们对肉毒毒素 A 的兴趣和使用，并使适当选择的患者高度满意。
