Study Summary

Perioral rhytides present a difficult problem in facial rejuvenation. They cannot be addressed with rhytidectomy (face lift) and direct excision can leave visible unfavorable scars. Currently, fine static wrinkles are most effectively treated with facial resurfacing, usually with laser treatment. Often the peri-oral area is treated with additional spot treatments with an ablative laser to cause a more robust healing response and better aesthtic result. To date, no studies have specifically shown efficacy of additional spot treatment over full facial laser alone. This study is designed as a split-face study, to compare the aesthetic results of full field laser resurfacing on one half of the face with that of spot treatment of perioral rhytides on the other half. To clarify further to the IRB board, this is not an experimental treatment. Spot treatment is used by many surgeons/laser proceduralists for addressing specific areas of the face. This is an FDA indicated use of the laser for facial resurfacing. Due to the many genetic and enviromental factors that can effect the results the best design for the study to is have each patient serve as their own control with a split-face study.
