Xeomin Cosmetic in the Management of Masseter
- Conditions
- Masseter Muscle Hypertrophy
- Interventions
- Device: Xeomin Cosmetic
- Registration Number
- NCT03376464
- Lead Sponsor
- Erevna Innovations Inc.
- Brief Summary
The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two injection techniques in the management of masseteric hypertrophy using Xeomin Cosmetic.
- Detailed Description
Background: Xeomin Cosmetic has been used previously in the management of masseteric hypertrophy. However, a standardized injection technique has not been established. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two injection techniques in the management of masseteric hypertrophy using Xeomin Cosmetic.
Methods: Thirty female patients with masseteric hypertrophy were recruited and evenly randomized to receive bilateral treatments of either 1) a single injection technique (SIT), or 2) a multi-injection technique (MIT). Improvement of masseteric hypertrophy was assessed at Week 16 using standardized measurements and photographs. Patients completed a 5-point satisfaction questionnaire while physicians the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) and 10-point photonumeric masseter prominence rating scale.

- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description single injection technique (SIT) Xeomin Cosmetic 40 U of Xeomin Cosmetic delivered directly into the region where the three masseter heads overlap. multi-injection technique (MIT) Xeomin Cosmetic A distribution of 40 U (8 U distributed in 5 different areas) of Xeomin Cosmetic over the width of the masseter while respecting the upper limit of the anterior border of the masseter and the inferior insertion of the masseter. The injections are separated by a 1cm distance and the dose is equally distributed across these sites.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Metric masseteric hypertrophy improvement outcomes between SIT and MIT at 16 weeks in comparison to baseline. Baseline to 16 weeks The difference in physician assessed efficacy using standardized masseter improvement measurements between two different injection techniques at 16 weeks (visit 4) in comparison to baseline (visit 2).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Masseter photo-numeric aesthetic rating scales between SIT and MIT at 16 weeks in comparison to baseline. Baseline to 16 weeks Face shape and masseteric prominence rating
Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire Baseline to 20 weeks Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale Baseline to 20 weeks
