Clinical Study to Evaluate Safety and Effectiveness of Noble Lift® Lifting Threads
- Conditions
- Aesthetic
- Interventions
- Device: Eyebrow liftDevice: Jaw lift
- Registration Number
- NCT06454994
- Lead Sponsor
- GCS Co., Ltd
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to compare two models of the Nobel Lift range (PDO sutures) with similar PDO devices available on the market, in a split-face comparative study. Each thread model will be used in one indication: upper face (eyebrow lift) or mid-face and lower-face.
Aesthetic efficacy of the devices will be evaluated and compared with the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS), jowl laxity scale, subjective evaluation of the patient and photographs during a 12-months period. Safety of the devices and procedures will also be evaluated.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Comparison of Global Aesthetic Improvement (GAIS) by the investigator between both products Month 3 Non-inferiority of Noble Lift® threads in comparison with Croquis® thread, in terms of GAIS mean score on Month 3, assessed by an independent blinded investigator on photos (in global and for each indication). GAIS is a scale from 1 (worse) to 5 (very much improved).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentages of responders for Global Aesthetic Improvement (GAIS) by the investigator Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 GAIS is a scale from 1 (worse) to 5 (very much improved)
Percentages of responders for Global Aesthetic Improvement (GAIS) by the subject Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 GAIS is a scale from 1 (worse) to 5 (very much improved)
Percentages of subjects satisfied with the intervention using a subjective evaluation questionnaire Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 Answers are evaluated from 1 (very dissatisfied) to 5 (very satisfied)
Number and percentages of skin reactions scored by the investigator Month1, Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 Skin reactions are scored as mild, moderate or severe
Change from baseline of Facial Laxity Rating Scale (FLRS) score Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 FLRS is a scale from 1 (mild laxity) to 9 (severe laxity)
Number and percentages of Adverse Events Month1, Month 3, Month 6, Month 12 Number and percentages of immediate and early skin reactions collected by the subject Month 1 Skin reactions are scored as mild, moderate or severe
