Summary
- This summary is based on the review of one randomized controlled trial. [1]
- Psychological Impact and Quality of Life Improvement: LetibotulinumtoxinA significantly reduced the psychological impact of glabellar lines, with a mean improvement of -33.84 on the Modified Skindex-16 GL-QoL Scale compared to -1.37 in the placebo group (p < .001). It also led to notable improvements in quality of life and satisfaction with treatment outcomes.
- Perceived Age and Glabellar Line Severity: Subjects treated with letibotulinumtoxinA reported a younger perceived age on the FACE-Q Age Appraisal Visual Analog Scale. The reduction in psychological burden was highly correlated with improvements in glabellar line severity (p < .0001).
- Lack of Subgroup or Population Differences: The study does not provide specific effectiveness data for different population types or subgroups.
- There is no safety information available in the reviewed studies.
