  • Title: [Botulin toxin injections in cosmetic treatment of men].
    Author: Gassia V.
    Journal: Ann Dermatol Venereol; 2009 May; 136 Suppl 4():S119-24. PubMed ID: 19576477.
    Abstract:
    Men are showing increasing interest in nonsurgical esthetic procedures even if women account for the vast majority of patients. Botulinum toxin A injections are particularly sought by men: this is the most frequently performed nonsurgical procedure, with 296,000 injections in the US in 2007 (Fig. 1). Men seek to remain natural while retaining their maturity and improving their appearance. The classical injection technique does not differ in men and the basics are similar to procedures performed in women. However, they often require larger doses. In addition, men's facial morphology presents certain specificities that must be respected when choosing the injection points.
