| Popis: | Botulinum toxin (BoNT) is a valuable therapeutic tool with several medical indications and the most popular of all cosmetic procedures worldwide. This is the reason for the growing number of unregistered products that may be the reason for adverse reactions. We present a case of a 51-year-old woman, who developed a pyoderma gangrenosum-like reaction at injection sites after the administration of an unregistered BoNT product by a beautician. The clinical course, the morphology of the lesions, the result of histopathological biopsy, and the response to the treatment meets the criteria for diagnosis of pyoderma gangrenosum. The case presented by us is the first adverse reaction of this type after BoNT administration. |
