Zusammenfassung

Botulinumtoxin A (Bont A) wird in der Nervenheilkunde gezielt zur Behandlung spezifischer Bewegungsstörungen wie Torticollis spasmodicus und Blepharospasmus eingesetzt. Jenseits der medizinischen Indikationen hat sich Bont A zu einem der bekanntesten LifestyleMedikamente für die Faltenbehandlung etabliert. Diese Übersicht stellt diese Entwicklung anhand evidenzbasierter Studiendaten aus der ästhetischen Medizin vor. Dabei werden die auf dem Markt befindlichen pharmazeutischen Präparate Botox®, Dysport® und Xeomin® sowie deren Lifestyle-Pendants (Vistabel®, Azzalure® und Bocouture®) berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus wird die Behandlung der primären fokalen Hyperhidrose als medizinisch abzugrenzende Entität in Hinblick auf die Lebensqualität der Betroffenen dargestellt.

Summary

Botulinum toxin A (Bont A) has become the mainstay of therapy for certain neurologic disorders such as torticollis spasmodicus and blepharospasm. Beyond its pure medical uses, Bont A has emerged as one of the most popular life-style products to treat facial wrinkles. This review addresses Bont A uses within the field of aesthetic procedures established by the standards of evidence-based medicine. Presently, three Bont A products are approved in most European countries which are Botox®, Dysport® und Xeomin® for medical uses and their corresponding life-style products Vistabel®, Azzalure® and Bocouture®. Apart from aesthetic indications, patients with severe primary focal hyperhidrosis suffer from a medical condition that is readily treatable by intradermal Bont A injections resulting in effective disease control and significant improvement of quality of life which must not be confused with life-style.
