About Face: Navigating Neuromodulators and Injection Techniques for Optimal Results

摘要

Interest in the cosmetic use of neuromodulators for facial rejuvenation is increasing among physicians, other practitioners, and patients alike, and an expanding array of formulations and reported applications might be helping to drive this trend. Safety, efficacy, and a high level of patient satisfaction can be achieved with all the available botulinum neurotoxin type A (BTXA) products. With any of the formulations, optimal results require knowledge of the individual product's unique properties and dosing, along with an understanding of the patient's goals, relevant anatomy, and proper injection technique. This educational activity reviews these topics on the basis of the published literature and expert opinion. A series of case narratives is also included that provides readers with information and insights for achieving success in clinical practice.
