What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Participants With at Least a 1 Point Improvement From Baseline on the Perioral Lines Severity Scale (POLSS)

    The investigator evaluated the severity of the participant's upper and low lip at Baseline (Pre-treatment) to Month 6 using the 4-point POLSS where None=No lines, Mild=Few, shallow lines, Moderate=Some, moderate lines or Severe=Many, deep lines or crevices. The percentage of participants with at least a 1 Point Improvement is reported.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 6

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Participant Assessed Procedural and Post-Procedural Pain Levels

    The participant assessed procedural and post-procedural pain using an 11-point scale where: 0=no pain to 10=worst pain imaginable.

    Measured: During injection, immediately following injection, 15, 30, and 45 min post-injection

  2. Subject's Global Assessment of Change in Appearance of Perioral Lines

    The participant evaluated the change in the appearance of their perioral lines (the lines that radiate outward from the edges of the upper and lower lips) using a 7-point scale where: 1 = Very much improved; 2=Much improved; 3=Minimally improved; 4=No change; 5=Minimally worse; 6=Much worse; 7=Very much worse.

    Measured: Baseline, Days 7, 14, Days 7, 14 after touch-up, Months 1, 3 and 6

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With at Least a 1 Point Improvement From Baseline on the Perioral Lines Severity Scale (POLSS) (time frame: Baseline, Month 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
