RESUMEN
Objective:To study the clinical efficacy of botulinum toxin type A injection in the treatment of upper facial dynamic wrinkles.Methods:A total of 35 patients with upper facial dynamic wrinkles treated in our hospital from February 2016 to October 2016 were selected as research objects.All the patients were treated with botulinum toxin type A.The excellence rate of 30min after treatment,3 d after treatment and 7 d after treatment were evaluated and compared.The facial wrinkles severity index of the patients were evaluated by the facial wrinkles scale (FWS),and the differences of the FWS index before treatment,4 weeks after treatment and 6 months after treatment were compared.The adverse reactions,like upper facial tension,fatigue and local injection of ecchymosis after treatment were observed and compared.Results:The excellence rate of the patients after treatment of 30 min,3 d and 7 d were gradually increased.The excellence rate of the patients after treatment of 3 d and 7 d were significantly higher than that of after treatment of 30 min,and the excellence rate of the patients after treatment of 7 d were significantly higher than that of after treatment of 3 d (P＜0.05).The FWS index of the patients after treatment of 4 weeks and 6 months were significantly lower than those of before treatment,and the FWS index of the patients after treatment of 4 weeks were significantly lower than that of 6 months after treatment(P＜0.05).After treatment,only 4 patients had slight discomfort and all of these symptoms were disappeared after 3-4 days,there was no effect on their normal work and life.Conclusion:Botulinum toxin type A injection has a remarkable clinical curative effect in the treatment of patients with upper facial dynamic wrinkles,can maintain tor a long time,and also has good safety,it is worthy clinical application.
RESUMEN
Objective To assess the efficacy and adverse reactions of two cconcentrations of diluted botulinum toxin A for dynamic frontotransverse wrinkles.Methods Totally 103 cases met the inclusion criteria were assigned into two groups by a random number table:high concentration group (50 U/ml,53 cases) and low concentration group (25 U/ml,50 cases).The two groups were given the local injection with 50 U/ml and 25 U/ml concentration of botulinum toxin type A,respectively.Dosage of BTX-A,the treatment effect,the duration of the effect and the incidence of adverse reactions were analyzed.Results The high concentration group were given the BTX-A (45.53±2.05) U,the low concentration group were given the BTX-A (25.71 ± 1.74) U,and the difference were statistically significant (P＜0.05).The differences of post-operative evaluation,time of onset and duration between the two groups were not statistically significant (P＞0.05).In the high concentration group,30 cases (88.24％) had forehead heaviness sensation,and 2 cases (5.71％) in the low concentration group,the difference were statistically significant (P＜0.01).Neither of the groups was given any specific treatment,the symptoms were disappeared in two weeks.In either group there was no serious complications such as intoxication,allergy,etc.Conclusions The efficacy of local injection with two concentrations of diluted botulinum toxin A in the treatment of dynamic frontotransverse wrinkles is positive,the duration of treatment effect between the two groups is similar,and therefore the 25 U/ml concentration is recommended to reduce the forehead heaviness sensation.
