Abstract in brief

The study explores using botulinum toxin A (commonly known as Botox) as a treatment option for male pattern baldness, which is a common form of hair loss in men.
It investigates whether injecting Botox can improve hair growth by relaxing scalp muscles and increasing blood flow to hair follicles, potentially stimulating hair growth.
The results from the pilot study suggest that Botox might have positive effects on hair density, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.]
