Brief Summary

The Research Question of the present study is the following: in a population of men and women affected by facial and neck wrinkles, will linear hyaluronic acid (Jalucomplex®) significantly decrease the appearance of facial and neck wrinkles, results observed after 12 weeks?

Detailed Description

This is an open, non-comparative study for evaluating the performance and safety of the medical device Jalucomplex in the treatment of facial and neck wrinkles.

Similar dermal fillers have been used in several clinical investigations in humans with a good rate of clinical success and good safety profiles.

Jalucomplex®'s acts by increasing tissue volume based on the natural ability of hydrophilic hyaluronic acid molecules to bind to an amount of water far greater than their own weight. This allows the material to fill intra-dermal spaces and supplement the intercellular matrix. Linear hyaluronic acid is a polymer that represents one of the essential components of human skin, subcutaneous and connective tissue; its ability to form complexes with water molecules increases the level of tissue hydration, turgidity and plasticity.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
Jalucomplex® 2	Jalucomplex	Jalucomplex® 2 (Linear Hyaluronic Acid) Injection: follow the instruction for use

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
To evaluate the safety and performance of Jalucomplex® dermal filler in terms of absolute change of Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale	84 days	To evaluate the overall safety of the medical device and performance of Jalucomplex® dermal filler in terms of absolute change of Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale score assessed by Investigator at 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks after the initiation of treatment, compared to Baseline Visit (day 0). The Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale has 5 points: 5 extreme, 4 Severe, 3 moderate, 2 minore, 1 absente. A lower value after the administration of IP will signify an improvement in wrinkle condition

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Treatment satisfaction questionnaire completed by the subject	84 days	Treatment satisfaction questionnaire completed by the subject has 3 options: very satisfied, satisfied and not satisfied. A 'Very Satisfied' answer from the patient is considered a very good outcome compared with the lowest grade 'Not Satisfied'
Wrinkles Severity Ranking Scale score assessed by the patient	84 days	Wrinkles Severity Ranking Scale score assessed by the patient before and after the injection. The Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale has 5 points: 5 extreme, 4 Severe, 3 moderate, 2 minore, 1 absente. A lower value after the administration of IP will signify an improvement in wrinkle condition.
Patient Global Assessment of Safety	84 days	It will be reported by the subject at the last visit using the 4-point scale: 1= very good safety, 2 = good safety, 3 = moderate safety and 4 = poor safety.
Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale evaluated by the subject	84 days	General appearance after treatment assessed by the subject at 8 and 12 weeks after the first treatment session compared to Baseline Visit (day 0) using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale. There are 5 grades on this scale: 1 very much improved, 2 much improved, 3 improved, 4 no change, 5 worse
Investigator Global Assessment of Safety	84 days	Investigator Global Assessment of Safety (IGAS) - using the 4-point scale: 1= very good safety, 2 = good safety, 3 = moderate safety and 4 = poor safety
