Correcting Nasojugal Groove with Autologous Cultured Fibroblast Injection: A Pilot Study
2018
Background
A new commercial drug that contains autologous cultured fibroblasts has been developed and approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for improving the appearance of nasolabial folds. However, the treatment requires three sessions every 3–6 weeks. It is known that the skin overlying the nasojugal groove is thinner, and the wrinkle is generally shallower than nasolabial folds. Therefore, we hypothesized that the nasojugal groove could be improved by just one treatment session. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of autologous cultured fibroblast injection to correct nasojugal grooves.
