Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of Sodium Hyaluronate When Used for the Correction of Nasolabial Folds

The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of pain relief of modified sodium hyaluronate gel for injection when used for the correction of moderate or severe nasolabial folds.

One hundred and thirty patients were enrolled and there two sides of nasolabial folds (NLF) were randomized to receive HA with lidocaine or HA. The primary outcome was immediate visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain evaluated after injection for both NLF sides. Secondary outcomes including VAS pain, wrinkle severity rating scale (WSRS), global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) and AE were observed at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 follow-ups.

Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

* Age 18 to 65 years of male or female
* Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) of bilateral nasolabial folds graded 3 or 4 by blinded evaluator (moderate to severe bilateral nasolabial fold), consistent grade of bilateral nasolabial folds, and the grades approved by the physician who perform the treatment
* Agree not to undergo any other under-eye facial surgery (including nose) during the study period

Exclusion Criteria:

* Injection site with infection or other skin diseases present which may affect the evaluation
* With medical history of chromatosis, discoloration, keloid formation, hypertrophic scarring at nasolabial folds
* With permanent implants or planning to receive permanent implants during the study period at the injection sites
* Hyaluronate facial dermal implant injection or other impermanent dermal fillers injection at injection sites within the past 12 months

* With orthodontics, tooth extraction, tooth implantation (extraction or implantation of tooth anterior to the second premolar) or planning to receive these procedures during the study
* With history of hypersensitivity or allergy to lidocaine, amide anesthetics, hyaluronic acid or any component of the device; Gram-positive bacterial or Streptococcus proteins; other severe hypersensitivity history unsuitable for participating in the study
* Planning to undergo any surgery which may cause significant body weight change (such as bariatric surgery) or take any medication which may cause significant body weight change
* Pregnant, planning pregnancy or in breastfeeding females
