This article overviews reports of counterfeit botulinum toxin and the risk of cosmetic iatrogenic botulism (CIB). We looked at reports of CIB linked to procedures carried out by unlicensed or untrained individuals or involving counterfeit botulinum toxin products. We highlight the regulatory gaps that may contribute to unsafe practices in this area. There is an urgent need for unified national regulations in the United States, along with global standards, to clearly define who is authorized to perform these procedures and under what conditions they can do so. Furthermore, it is essential to enhance enforcement measures and increase public awareness to protect patients and uphold the highest safety standards.

We understand how challenging hair loss can be, and our findings suggest that this treatment can provide a valuable option as an adjunct to pharmacologic therapies. Many patients have expressed their gratitude for this combination treatment, highlighting its positive impact on their journey.

I also had the privilege of presenting this study at the IMCAS meeting in Sรฃo Paulo, where we engaged with others who share our dedication to improving patient outcomes in dermatology.

A single session of fully ablative Erbium:YAG laser treatment can lead to significant improvement of perioral wrinkles (smoker lines) and texture (โ€œcobblestoneโ€). While the procedure is associated with some downtime, patients are very pleased with the outcomes. This patient improved significantly, her โ€˜afterโ€™ photo was taken 6 weeks after the resurfacing.

This groundbreaking study involves 80 patients and is the first study to demonstrate that nonsurgical (liquid) rhinoplasty (NSR) can improve the appearance of nasal septal deviation (NSD). This new research builds upon my earlier work with Dr. Fernando Silikovich , a pioneer in rhinoplasty, published in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, which introduced the R4P NSR technique. The modified R4P (mR4P) we detail in PRS Global Open specifically addresses NSD.

I am pleased to see the publication of this article by JMIR Dermatology. The article addresses an important topic: nonresponse to Botulinum Toxin type A (BoNT-A). Nonresponse to BoNT-A is becoming increasingly significant in aesthetic treatments. Secondary nonresponse (SNR) occurs when BoNT-A is initially effective, but its effectiveness diminishes over time. When selecting a BoNT-A formulation, it is essential to consider the potential for immunogenicity. Preventing SNR is crucial, and the article discusses strategies aimed at preventing it.

I am also pleased with the initial feedback from aesthetic providers regarding this publication. It's encouraging to see that many professionals are engaging with this important topic.
