Chronic skin ulcer (CSU) often combines with a variety of refractory factors that respond poorly to routine treatments. Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) can be injected subcutaneously to improve the local blood supply, to reduce pain, and to promote wound healing. At present, few reports have mentioned BTX-A injection for chronic skin ulcer treatment. We observed the effect of four cases that used BTX-A to treat CSU and provided a brief review of the literature. Four cases of CSUs with 4 different causes were treated with BTX-A injection (4 U/cm2). The specific operation is as follows: local, multipoint, cyclic, equidistant, and subcutaneous injections with a depth of 6 to 8 mm. The ulcer area was significantly reduced. Subsequently, the ulcer healed within 20 to 48 days. Botulinum toxin A is recommended as an important treatment for chronic skin ulcer that can improve healing of skin ulcers with various etiologies.
