Clinical Trial Summary

This study was aimed to compare the effectiveness of polydioxanone thread embedding acupuncture and manual acupuncture on the reduction of the nasolabial fold. One cycle of therapy in the manual acupuncture group (MA) was carried out with 6 sessions of manual acupuncture therapy while one cycle of therapy in the thread embedding acupuncture group (TEA) received 1 single session of thread embedding acupuncture. The outcome of the study was assessed based on the length of the nasolabial fold as measured by a digital vernier caliper, changes in wrinkle severity rating scale, and patient's subjective opinion of her nasolabial fold using visual analog scale. Outcome measurements were carried out after completing 1 cycle, and follow up at 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months and 3 months after completing 1 cycle.
