Detailed description
The study will evaluate non-inferiority in clinical improvement in the intensity of expression lines over 16 weeks of drug Botulift (Laboratório Químico Farmacêutico Bergamo Ltd.) compared with Botox ® (Allergan Inc.).

Patients will be evaluated at each visit, the doctor Principal Investigator and digital photos of the glabellar region at maximum contraction and relaxation will be obtained using the apparatus Visia (Canfield Imaging Systems, version 4.0.2) for further analysis by random team dermatologists.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| overall improved assessment of hyperkinetic facial lines in a state of relaxation and maximal contraction through the Honeck's scale and photographic images obtained by equipment Visia Digital Compexton Analysis (Canfield Imaging Systems, version 4.0.2) | after 30 days of application | The non-inferiority of T group compared to the group Co was demonstrated in evaluations in a state of relaxation and maximal contraction in the PP analysis population, because as defined for the study, the lower limits of 95% of the mean of these assessments (-2 , 7% and -5.4%) are contained within the non-inferiority limit set at -10%. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Length of stay of the effect of botulinum toxin A (Test and Comparator) | during the 24-week period | The action of both treatments decreases over time and there is no significant difference between the two treatments. |
| Safety of both botulinum toxin A | during the whole period | The occurrence of adverse events was similar in both groups. |
