Study Summary

This study will test if the use of DysportTM (abobotulinumtoxinA) improves wound healing and scarring after Mohs surgery. Research in the laboratory as well as previous studies in humans have shown improved wound healing and scarring with the use of a similar medication called Botox. Dysport may improve wound healing and scarring by relaxing facial muscles and therefore minimizes the muscle tension and possibly the inflammation around the wound.

Primary Outcome

It consists of a 10 point scale to assess global scar assessment. Scar photographic images are assessed by independent physicians, and previous studies have shown very high intrarater consistency.

Interventions

  • DRUG Dysport (abobotulinumtoxinA)
  • DRUG Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride (vehicle)
