Overview
Brief Summary
A randomized, evaluator-blinded, comparative, study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different injection volumes of botulinum toxin type A, Azzalure, in the glabellar lines.
Detailed Description
Clarification regarding injection volumes for the different study groups: Subjects will be randomized to Group A or Group B (1:1). * Group A: 0,63ml NaCl will be used to reconstitute toxin in the vial. 0,05mL will be injected (equal to a dose of 10s.U.) * Group B: 1,25ml NaCl will be used to reconstitute toxin in the vial. 0,1 mL will be injected (equal to a dose of 10s.U.). The two different reconstitution volumes (each containing a dose of 10s.U. botulinum toxin A) will be compared as described under objectives.
Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Women, 18 to 64 years of age

- •Pregnant or breast feeding women or women intending to get pregnant in the next 12 months.
- •Subjects with signs and symptoms of eyelid or brow ptosis or signs of compensatory frontalis muscle activity, as judged by the investigator.
