• Registration Number: NCT06872359
• Lead Sponsor: Kiomed Pharma

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to primarily evaluate the performance of KIO017 in filling/volumizing after injection in different areas in healthy women or men, older than 18 years and seeking an improvement of her/his face aspect with resorbable filler. The main questions it aims to answer are:

If the products are safe

- Acceptable local tolerance, with acceptable clinical signs after injection.

If the clinical performance is as intended compared to baseline

* Evaluation of performance by assessing the improvement of the appearance of the defect to be corrected by using Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS)

* Quantification of the improvement using the appropriate scale when available or other appropriates tool (angle for chin, for instance).

* Pain felt during injection and after injection

* Subject satisfaction
