NCT ID NCT05766683

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares injecting Botox at two different depths (2mm vs 4mm) to treat frown lines between the eyebrows. Twenty adults will receive a one-time treatment, and researchers will measure how well each depth reduces wrinkles and any side effects. The goal is to find the optimal injection depth for best results with minimal risks.
