Summary
Following the publication by J. D. A. Carruthers in 1992, botulinum toxin injections started being used for the treatment of wrinkles caused by certain muscle hyperactivity.
The botulinum toxins type A (BtxA), developed by Allergan Inc. in the United States (BOTOX) and by Beaufour Ipsen in Europe (Dysport), have a parallel history, both being initially used for the treatment of muscle spasms. BOTOX was first, being introduced in the United States in 1985, while Dysport started being used in Europe in 1988. (Dysport is also distributed in France by Gallderma under the name AZZALURE.)
They are both very effective and reliable products. Long-term use in large numbers of patients has demonstrated a lack of secondary effects other than those predictable due to diffusion of the toxin to muscles adjacent to those for which treatment was intended. The site of action of botulinum toxins is shown in Figure 38.1. Over time, improved understanding of anatomy, use of appropriate injection volumes, and improved injection techniques have greatly reduced the incidence of these types of complications.
This empirical knowledge was recently confirmed by results of the scientific studies conducted by Dr. B. Ascher to obtain certification for the product in France. There were nine international well designed clinical studies involving 3,500 patients and up to 6 months of follow-up. Several of these studies have been published: Two Phase II dose-finding studies (Ascher 2004, Monheit 2007)
One Phase II safety dose1, and one Phase III single-treatment studies (Rzany 2006)
One Phase III repeat-treatment studies (Ascher 2005)
