简要总结
A prospective evaluation of the ThermiRF device in treating skin laxity under the chin and neck. Seventy male and female subjects between the age of 35 and 65 (inclusive) will be enrolled in this trial. The first 30 subjects will have a total of 6 study visits while the remainder will have a total of 5 study visits.
All subjects will have a single treatment administered. The first 30 subjects will have an extra visit at Day 60 intended to allow collection of photo images post treatment to be used for the validation of three blinded raters.
Photo images will be collected using 2D standard photography and 3D using the Vectra system. The architecture of the skin in the affected area will be measured using the Cutometer, a suction like instrument that measures elasticity. Sensory and safety will be measured using a 0-10 point numerical rating scale (NRS) and collection of safety reports. The study duration is approximately 6 months.
详细描述
This is an open-label, single-center, single-treatment prospective evaluation of the ThermiRF device in the treatment of submental skin laxity. The purpose of this prospective study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of the ThermiRF device in achieving overall submental lift.
In this study, "Lift" is defined as a ≥ 20 mm2 lift of the submental area after the ThermiRF treatment.
A total of 70 male and female healthy volunteers between the age of 35 and 65 will be considered for this study. Subjects who sign the informed consent form and meet all entry criteria will be enrolled in this study and will be assigned a unique number/code to preserve confidentiality.
A total of six study visits are planned as described below:
- Visit 1: Screening visit - (Day 1)
- Visit 2: Single Treatment visit
- Visit 3: Day 30 safety assessment (± 7 to 14 days)
- Visit 4: Day 60 safety and Image capture for validation exercise (± 7 to 14 days)
- Visit 5: Day 90 safety and effectiveness follow-up visit (± 7 to 14 days)
- Visit 6: Day 180 safety and effectiveness follow-up visit - (± 7 to 14 days)
