Outcome results

Primary

Mean Change From Baseline in Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) at 6 Months

The Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) is a 5-graded scale with grades 1-5 ranging from absent (1) to extreme (5). A clinical significant improvement is defined as at least 1 grade improvement (lowering in grade).

Time frame: 6 months

Population: Split-face design; 100 participants received treatment with Restylane Perlane in one NLF and treatment with Restylane in the other NLF.
