Abstract
Background: Skin aging is accompanied by wrinkle formation. At some sites, such as the periorbital skin, this is a relatively early phenomenon.
Objective: We evaluated the anti-wrinkle effect of a preparation containing human growth factor and hyaluronic acid serum on periorbital wrinkles (crow's feet).
Materials and methods: In total, 23 Korean women (age range: 39–59 years), who were not pregnant, nursing, or undergoing any concurrent therapy, were enrolled in this study. All the patients completed an 8-week trial of twice-daily application of human growth factor and hyaluronic acid serum on the entire face. Efficacy was based on a global photodamage score, photographs, and image analysis using replicas and visiometer analysis every 4 weeks. The standard wrinkle and roughness parameters used in assessing skin by visiometer were calculated and statistically analyzed.
Results: Periorbital wrinkles were significantly improved after treatment, with improvements noted both by physician's assessment and visiometer analysis.
Conclusion: Topical application of human growth factor and hyaluronic acid was beneficial in reducing periorbital wrinkles.
