| [1] | Griffiths photonumeric scale was evaluated by the dermatologist. Patients were placed under natural daylight or fluorescent lighting for grading. A direct comparison was then made between the subjects and photographic standards (provided in reference 1). If an exact match could not be made to a grade then an inter-grade number was used used, for example 1, 3, 5, or 7. Zero (0) is the least amount of photodamage, 8 is the most amount of photodamage. |
|---|---|
| [2] | This factor represents a visual assessment of the number and depth of superficial wrinkles (i.e. shallow indentations or lines). Fine wrinkles typically appear in periorbital and perioral regions and are usually found further from the eyes and mouth than are coarse wrinkles.
|
| [3] | This factor represents a visual assessment of the number and depth of coarse wrinkles (i.e. deep lines, furrows, or creases). Coarse wrinkles appear on the forehead, glabella, chin, and nasolabial and periorbital areas, and they tend to be located closer to the eyes and mouth than fine wrinkles.
|
| [4] | This factor represents a visual assessment of color tone from very pink or rosy (0) to very sallow or pale (9).
|
| [5] | This factor represents a visual assessment of light, patchy, mottled hyperpigmentation and solar freckling (including melasma) based on quantitative criteria such as the area/density of pigment, color intensity (dark vs. light), and uniformity of distribution (i.e. the more uneven or blotchy, the greater the score), Lentigines, nevi, and other pigmented lesions are not to be included in this assessment.
