tier1 Effects of Botulinum Toxin Type A Treatment on Clinical and Biophysical Parameters in Patients With Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled, Double-Blind Study.
Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea (ETR) lacks a gold-standard treatment. Recent studies show that intradermal Botulinum Toxin-A (BoNT-A) is effective for erythema, though objective data are limited. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of intradermal BoNT-A in patients with ETR.

Abstract summary (English) Rosacea-associated erythema and flushing often remain inadequately controlled by standard therapies. Intradermal botulinum toxin A has emerged as a potential treatment targeting the neurovascular component of rosacea. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of intradermal letibotulinumtoxinA for persistent erythema and flushing in rosacea.

Abstract summary (English) INTRODUCTION: The persistent erythema and flushing seen in some cases of rosacea do not respond effectively to, or may easily relapse after, oral medication or light-based therapies (laser or intense pulsed light). Intradermal botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injection can be used to treat intractable erythema and flushing, but studies with large samples and long-term observation have not been conducted to determine its...
