简要总结
Prospective clinical study to evaluate the Profound efficiency Up to 60 healthy adult volunteers, male or females, 18 to 70 years old. All subjects in this study will receive a single treatment to the submental area with the profound device; subjects will return to four follow- up visits: 1 week post treatment, 1, 3 and 6 months post treatment.
Prior to treatment, tissue will be treated with injected tumescence or local dermal infiltration solution according to the protocol.
详细描述
This study is a Prospective clinical study to evaluate the Profound device for submental laxity.
Up to a total of 60 healthy candidates, seeking treatment for submental laxity. Subjects will receive one Profound treatment targeted to both dermal and subcutaneous layer of the skin.
Before treatment (15-20 minutes) the tissue to be treated will be injected with tumescence solution.
Each subject will be followed for additional four (4) post treatment visits
