This invention relates to novel compositions of botulinum toxin that can be applied topically for various therapeutic, aesthetic and/or cosmetic purposes. The compositions may include botulinum toxin complexes, wherein the amounts of hemagglutinin, non-toxin non-hemagglutinin and/or exogenous albumin are selectively and independently reduced compared to conventional commercially available botulinum toxin. The compositions may further contain molecules that are not native to botulinum toxin and that bind non-covalently to the botulinum toxin complexes, thereby acting as skin-tropic "adhesion molecules" to improve the ability of the toxin complexes to adhere to and to penetrate the skin epithelium. The compositions have an improved safety profile compared to existing botulinum-containing compositions that are injected subcutaneously. Methods for the use of such compositions are also contemplated by this invention.

La présente invention concerne de nouvelles compositions de toxines botuliques qui peuvent être appliquées de façon topique à diverses fins thérapeutiques, esthétiques et / ou cosmétiques. Les compositions peuvent comprendre des complexes de toxine botulique, dans lesquelles les quantités d~hémagglutinine, de protéines non-toxiques non-hémagglutinines et/ou d~albumine exogène sont sélectivement et indépendamment réduites par rapport à la toxine botulique traditionnelle disponible dans le commerce. Les compositions peuvent en outre contenir des molécules qui ne sont pas natives à la toxine botulique et qui se lient de façon non covalente aux complexes de la toxine botulique, agissant ainsi en tant que molécules d~adhésion tropique à la peau en vue d~améliorer la faculté des complexes de toxine à adhérer à l~épithélium cutané et à y pénétrer. Les compositions présentent un meilleur profil d~innocuité par rapport à des compositions existantes contenant des toxines botuliques qui sont injectées par voie sous-cutanée. La présente invention concerne également des procédés d~utilisation de telles compositions.
