Evaluation of Pain With Belotero® Balance With Integral Lidocaine for Correction of the Nasolabial Folds
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Belotero® Balance with integral lidocaine and Belotero® Balance for Correction of Moderate to Severe Nasolabial Folds. Completed, enrolled 52 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
Demonstrate the effectiveness of Belotero Balance with lidocaine (Test group) for the reduction of injection-related pain in comparison to Belotero Balance without lidocaine (Control group) for the correction of NLFs.
