Study Summary

This trial will determine if the depth of onabotulinumtoxinA neurotoxin injection affects its efficacy and safety in treating glabellar frown lines.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who have frown lines and want to try Botulinum toxin therapy. Participants must understand the study's requirements and risks, and be able to give informed consent.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests whether injecting onabotulinumtoxinA at different depths (2mm vs 4mm) in the forehead area affects how well it improves frown lines. The main goal is to find out which depth gives better results with fewer side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of onabotulinumtoxinA injections can include pain at the injection site, headache, temporary facial drooping or asymmetry, muscle weakness near where the medicine was injected.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is 2mm depth accepted according to FDA regulations?

"The available data indicates that 2mm depth is safe, thus it was scored a 1 on our scale. This score reflects the fact this Phase 1 trial has only limited evidence demonstrating both safety and efficacy."
