description BACKGROUND Several nonprescription products purport similar or better outcomes than botulinum toxin type A (Botox® Cosmetic) for treating wrinkles, but these have not been documented in comparative clinical trials. Patients spend millions of dollars annually on the topical products, yet there are, to date, no data to support any of the claims made. OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety of botulinum toxin type A to placebo and three topical products in treating moderate‐to‐severe glabellar lines. METHODS This single‐center, randomized, investigator‐blinded, parallel study of 77 female subjects comprised five treatment groups: botulinum toxin type A, placebo injection, StriVectin‐SD®, Wrinkle Relax™, and HydroDerm™. Baseline and follow‐up visits (weeks 4, 8, and 12) assessed safety and key efficacy measures: blinded investigator assessment of glabellar line severity on the Facial Wrinkle Scale (FWS); subjects' global assessment of overall change in appearance; subject ratings of glabellar‐related self‐perception pre‐ and post‐treatment and satisfaction with treatment. RESULTS Botulinum toxin type A treatment consistently resulted in statistically significant reductions in wrinkle severity on the FWS than any comparator (p
