Dr Earl Lu from NUH is an amazing presenter. He engaged the audience with his hilarious videos and eye-catching pictures, even though it was 7.30am. I attended his presentation on BONT. Oh my! BONT has MANY uses, and not only cosmetics as people know. It is used to relax smooth muscles, skeletal muscles as well as glandular tissues. Besides its uses, his presentation covers the mechanism, indications and contraindications, current research and the future of BONT.
All these information can be found from Medline. In the meanwhile, as a Youtube addict, I have found this videoclip which gives a simple explanation of its mechanism.
