- Abstract
Background The use of validated scales is still considered the gold standard for evaluating the severity of an aesthetic facial condition. Objectives The aim of this investigation was to create and validate 5-point photonumeric scales for the assessment of perioral lines and marionette lines. Methods A medical team created 2 different novel 5-point photonumeric scales for the assessment of perioral lines and marionette lines. Eleven international raters were involved in the digital validation, and 4 raters performed a live validation. Results For the Croma Static Perioral Lines–Assessment Scale, the digital interrater intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were 0.88 (95% CI, 0.85-0.91) in the first rating and 0.87 (95% CI, 0.83-0.90) in the second rating. The digital intrarater ICCs were 0.90 (95% CI, 0.87-0.92). In the live rating, the interrater ICCs were 0.89 (95% CI, 0.85-0.93) in the first rating and 0.91 (95% CI, 0.87-0.93) in the second rating with an intrarater ICC of 0.91 (95% CI, 0.88-0.95). For the Croma Marionette Lines–Assessment Scale, the digital rating interrater ICCs were 0.85 (95% CI, 0.81-0.89) in the first rating and 0.87 (95% CI, 0.84-0.90) in the second rating with an intrarater ICC of 0.89 (95% CI, 0.88-0.91). In the live rating, the interrater ICCs were 0.73 (95% CI, 0.54-0.83) in the first rating and 0.79 (95% CI, 0.65-0.87) in the second rating with an intrarater ICC of 0.88 (95% CI, 0.83-0.94). Conclusions The Croma Static Perioral Lines–Assessment Scale and the Croma Marionette Lines–Assessment Scale have exceptional inter- and intrarater agreements that justify their use in clinical and study settings for all ethnic groups. Level of Evidence: 5
