Despite the emphasis of many studies on the effectiveness of botulinum toxin in reducing the activity of sebaceous glands, the use of botulinum toxin as a therapeutic modality for control the symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis is not suggested by this study. Conducting studies in which the location and technique of injection and the follow-up intervals of patients in them are based on the standard of other studies, are the suggestions made by comparing the results and method of the current study with other studies.
