Cancer patients are experiencing an increase in overall survival as a consequence of earlier diagnosis and newer effective anticancer therapies. However, cancer survivors often face long-term consequences from their original cancer diagnosis and long-term sequelae of anticancer treatment. Maintaining patients' quality of life is of paramount importance and this can be accomplished by a multidisciplinary treatment approach, including aesthetic treatments to improve patients' body image and positively impact their quality of life. In this perspective, we will discuss the importance of aesthetic treatments in cancer patients. In addition, we will summarise the data available regarding the use of several aesthetic treatments such as fillers, botulinum toxin and laser use in cancer patients, their safety, their efficacy, and the specific precautions that need to be implemented in this particular subset of cancer patients.

Background: Glabellar lines have social and psychological implication since oftentimes generate negative facial expressions that could be misunderstood, such as anger, anxiety, fear or sadness, and others related to extrinsic aging signs. Botulinum toxin type A has been used for more than 20 years in aesthetic medicine and one of many options to improve dynamic facial lines on upper third of the face, including glabellar lines. On April 2009. FDA approved abobotulinum toksin A (Dysport) as the latest botulinum toxin type A, a purified complex diluted with human serum albumin and lactose. Aim: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A (abobotulinum toxin A) as a therapy for moderate to severe glabellar lines. Methods: searching the electronic database Pubmed-MEDLINE, Scopus, ProQuest, Cochrane library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar, found five articles (n=1.134) included in qualitative and quantitave analysis. Result: Metaanalysis showed the value of Q statistic was z value = 9,079 (p=0,000). Glabellar lines improvement according to Glabellar Lines Scale were more prominent in botulinum toxin type A injection group compared to control group on the 30th day after botulinum toxin type A injection (relative risk 23,007; CI 95%,11,692 -45,274). The result of the overall metanalysis showed that glabellar lines severity in the group with botulinum toxin type A injection was significantly improved compared to control group.
