Treatment and study plan

RF Non-Invasive Treatment

Device

Self-controlled single-arm group using the Elite IQ device

Primary outcomes

  1. Blinded Evaluation of Pre-treatment Images vs. Follow up Images to Determine Which Image Was Taken Pre-treatment vs. at the Follow up.

    Time frame: 60 day (+/- 30 days) post last treatment

    Blind identification of pre-treatment images vs. 60 day follow up images. It is performed by independent reviewers. The outcome will be reported as a percentage of photographs identified correctly.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Principle Investigator Assessment Using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (PGAIS)

    Time frame: 60 day (+/- 30 days) post last treatment

    Principle Investigator assessment using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (PGAIS) at the 60 day follow up visit. The GAIS scale ranges from 1 to 5, with 1 being "very much improved," 2 being "much improved," 3 being "improved," 4 being "no change," and 5 being "worse." This is the count of the number of subjects who the physician graded a 3 or higher.

  2. Subject Satisfaction

    Time frame: 60 day (+/- 30 days) post last treatment

    Subject satisfaction rates at the 60 day follow up visit. The subject satisfaction scale ranges from 1 to 6, with 1 being extremely unsatisfied, 2 being dissatisfied, 3 being slightly unsatisfied, 4 being slightly satisfied, 5 being satisfied, and 6 being extremely satisfied. This is the count of the number of subjects who graded themselves a 4 or higher.
