Treatment and study plan

Juvéderm® VOLIFT™ with Lidocaine

Device

Sterile gel in disposable syringe

Primary outcomes

  1. Forehead Contouring: Proportion of subjects with a Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) equal to 'improved" or "much improved" as assessed by a blinded aesthetic doctor of the contouring of the forehead using a 3D image.

    Time frame: Baseline to 30 Days

    The Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale is a 5-point scale ranging from "Much Improved" to "Much Worse" and it is used for the assessment of the level of improvement to the subjects forehead contouring

  2. Marionette Lines: Proportion of subjects with a ≥1-point change in the Marionette Line scale from baseline before treatment to 30 days post treatment.

    Time frame: Baseline to 30 Days

    The Marionette Line scale is a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (None- No Lines) to 4 (Very Severe) and it is used for the assessment of the level of improvement to the subjects marionette lines

Secondary outcomes

  1. Forehead Contouring: Change in overall FACE-Q Satisfaction with Facial Appearance score from baseline to 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months

    Time frame: Baseline to 30 days, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months

    The FACE-Q™ is a validated 10 question assessment measuring how satisfied the participant is with their facial appearance. Each question is answered on a 4-point scale where: 1=Very Dissatisfied, 2=Somewhat dissatisfied, 3=Somewhat satisfied, and 4= Very Satisfied. The responses to the items were converted to a 100-point Rausch transformed scale score: 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Higher scores indicate higher satisfaction. A positive change from Baseline indicates improvement.
