What this shows Sederma's Innovation Score is 33.5/100 (45th percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Sederma?

Each dot is one of Sederma’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Sederma’s own 14.9 claims/patent is at or below the 18.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Sederma's grants concentrate

Sederma is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 88.9% of grants classified under A61Q (Specific USE OF Cosmetics OR Similar Toiletry Preparations). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Sederma sits between Satcom Direct, Inc. and Serum Institute of India Private Limited.

Sederma's three-year grant acceleration

Sederma shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
