ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the effects of botulinum toxin with specific reconstitution ratio on lifting the face with a so-called microtoxin treatment protocol and covers its effects on androgenetic alopecia. Wound healing is a complex phenomenon that includes a variety of physiologic responses to injury to the different organs, commonly the skin. The normal wound healing occurs in three overlapping, but biologically distinct, phases. Just as with everything else, wound healing can be impaired. Abnormal scarring usually is classified as either hypertrophic scarring or keloid formation. Histologically, hypertrophic scars and keloids are different. Keloids are characterized by the overgrowth of dense fibrous tissue beyond the borders of the original wound, as opposed to hypertrophic scars, where the overgrowth stays within the borders of the wound. Skin pores are anatomically skin surface structures corresponding to the outlet of the hair shaft and sebum secretion.
