“…Although numerous studies have investigated the efficacy of incobotulinumtoxinA, onabotulinumtoxinA, and abobotulinumtoxinA, only a few have focused specifically on their rapidity of onset of treatment effect 18–20. Onset of effect of BoNT/A treatment is often described as “relatively quick” or “rapid”,12,14 but this parameter has not been assessed systematically on a daily basis following treatment; in most published trials, data were first obtained at variable time points, from 1 week postinjection,12 to as long as 2 weeks2123 or even 4 weeks posttreatment 16,17. However, at these time points, the focus is often on efficacy rather than onset of effect.…”

“…La incidencia publicada con anterioridad relativa a la presencia de blefaroptosis asociada al tratamiento de la zona glabelar mediante toxina botulínica, varía ampliamente, desde un 0% hasta un 20%. 8,11,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] La explicació n más probable respecto a este margen tan amplio, así como a los bajos índices presentes en este estudio y en otros publicados recientemente, es que el riesgo de presentació n de este efecto indeseable depende de la técnica aplicada. A medida que los profesionales médicos vayan familiarizándose con la utilizació n de la toxina botulínica para este tipo de indicaciones y las té-cnicas aplicadas sean cada vez más refinadas, se supone que descenderá la aparició n de estos efectos indeseables.…”

“…The mechanism of action of BTX makes it an ideal agent to target the major cause of these lines, involving the forehead, glabellar area, nasolabial creases, the lateral orbital region as well as the platysma. The procedure can be performed in an ambulatory setting and the use of an EMG instrument may provide better direction for the placement of the drug [20]. The vial containing 100 units of toxin is diluted with 1 ml of sterile normal saline to produce a solution with a concentration of 100 units.…”
