The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effects of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) for the temporary improvement in the appearance of platysma prominence. Study doctors will randomize participants into 1 of the 2 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 2 chance that a participant will be assigned to placebo. Around 400 participants will be enrolled in the study in the United States and Canada. Participants will receive a single treatment of intramuscular injection of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) or placebo on Day 1 during this 4 month long study. Participants will attend regular monthly visits during the study at the study site.

Time frame: Enrollment to Day 120
Composite Achievement of Grade 1 or 2 (Minimal or Mild) and at Least a 2-Grade Improvement From Baseline Based on Both Investigator's Assessment Using C-APPS and Participant's Self-Assessment Using P-APPS, at Maximum Contraction at Day 14
The Clinician Allergan Platysma Prominence Scale (C-APPS) evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a static measurement encompassing the investigator's visual examination of the platysma muscle at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5- Extreme. The Participant Allergan Platysma Prominence Scale (P-APPS) evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a single-item measure that is accompanied by a 5-grade photonumeric scale for participants to self-assess the severity of their platysma prominence at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5 - Extreme.

Change From Baseline on the Appearance of Neck and Lower Face Questionnaire (ANLFQ): Impacts Summary Score at Day 14

All items are rated on a 5-point Verbal Descriptor Scale ranging from 1 (Never) to 5 (All of the time), with higher summary scores (range: 7-35) indicating greater negative psychosocial impact from the appearance of the neck and lower face. For change from baseline in the ANLFQ: Impacts summary score, positive values indicate worsening and negative values indicate improvement in the psychosocial impact.
