Abstract: A layered microneedle device with successively stacked layers wherein each layer includes microneedles and perforations positions between the microneedles. The layers can be stacked to permit microneedles of a lower layer to extend through the perforations of an upper layer. The microneedles of successively stacked layers can extend away from the individual layers in a common direction.

Abstract: Rapid, animal protein free, chromatographic processes and systems for obtaining high potency, high yield botulinum neurotoxin for research, therapeutic and cosmetic use.

Abstract: A method of treating midface volume deficit in a person is provided. The method generally includes administering a dermal filler, such as a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler, in a sequence of injections that enhance effectiveness and/or duration of the filler. The method may include initially introducing a volume of the filler into at a zygomaticomalar region of the face prior to introducing one or more additional volumes of the filler into the anteromedial region and the submalar region, such that the duration of effectiveness of the treatment is improved, and less filler is required to achieve a desired correction.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for the acute treatment of migraine with or without aura, comprising the administration of ubrogepant. In particular, the present disclosure provides methods for the acute treatment of migraine in patients having hepatic impairment; in patients with renal impairment; and in patients concurrently taking CYP3A4 modulators or BCRP and/or P-gp only inhibitors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a topical composition that can be used to treat skin laxity, cellulite and to firm, smooth and/or tone skin.

Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions that stabilize a Clostridial toxin active ingredient are described. The compositions can be liquid or solid compositions, and comprise a surfactant and an antioxidant. In some embodiments, the compositions comprise a surfactant selected from a poloxamer and a polysorbate; an antioxidant selected from methionine, N-acetyl cysteine, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and combinations thereof, and, optionally, a tonicity agent and/or a lyoprotector selected from, for example, trehalose, sucrose.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to compositions, kits and methods for non-surgical reduction of localized subcutaneous fat such as that associated with a cosmetic fat accumulation. The methods employ compositions having specific concentrations of a salt of deoxycholic acid which provides a superior fat cell necrosis with modest adverse effects. Examples of localized subcutaneous fat are found in the submental area, in particular under the chin.

Abstract: Compositions that include extracellular matrix material and/or conditioned medium obtained from cells cultured under hypoxic conditions in a suitable growth medium and methods for producing the compositions. The compositions may also include botanicals, peptides, seed extracts, marine extracts and/or bacterial ferments. The compositions may be used to repair and regeneration of skin tissue.

In particular, the present disclosure provides methods for the acute treatment of migraine in patients having hepatic impairment; in patients with renal impairment; and in patients concurrently taking CYP3A4 modulators or BCRP and/or P-gp only inhibitors.

Abstract: Injectable compositions and methods of treating skin can help improve hydration, elasticity and/or texture of the skin. The compositions can be based on crosslinked hyaluronic acid matrices made with low molecular weight hyaluronic acids.

Abstract: Biodegradable intraocular implants with a high loading of a prostamide compound for the immediate and sustained reduction of intraocular pressure and treatment of glaucoma in an eye of a patient are described.

Abstract: This invention relates to compounds that are agonists of the muscarinic M1 and M4 receptor and which are useful in the treatment of diseases mediated by the muscarinic M1 and/or M4 receptors. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and the therapeutic uses of the compounds. Compounds provided are of formula (1): and salts thereof.

Abstract: A needle assembly for an injection device is provided to facilitate delivery of a dermal filler. The assembly includes a cannula and a hub. The hub can be coupled to a syringe. The hub includes an inner bore that has a proximal retention section, a stepped section, and a cannula retention section. The stepped section, the proximal retention section, and the cannula retention section are configured to reduce the dead space within the inner bore for preventing detachment of the hub from the syringe during an injection procedure.

Abstract: This invention relates to compounds that are agonists of the muscarinic M1 and/or M4 receptor and which are useful in the treatment of diseases mediated by the muscarinic M1 and M4 receptors. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds and the therapeutic uses of the compounds. Compounds provided are of formula where X1; X2; R1 and R4 are as defined herein.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a tissue expander for implanting into a body of a living subject can include mixing granules of a solute with an elastomer. The method can further include forming a matrix with the elastomer. The granules can be embedded within the elastomer. The elastomer can define boundaries of a plurality of chambers within the matrix. The method can further include curing the elastomer, such that the boundaries of the matrix are permeable to water at a temperature between a desired temperature range.
