Mean and Std Dev (standard deviation) are calculated at T1 and T2. Medium distance (Δµ) between homologous points is considered between T1 and T2 in absolute term. p value is calculated according to Student's t-distribution and it considers the t critical value in one-tail case. Statistically significant differences were considered for p < 0.05 (bold). The landmarks used were superciliare (sci) for frowning and knitting brows, alar curvature point (ac) for grimace, and cheilion (ch) for smile and lip purse.
