About this study

Official title: Open, Non-Comparative Study To Evaluate The Performance And Safety Of The Medical Device JANESSE® (Hyaluronic Acid-Dermal Filler) In The Correction Of Facial Wrinkles

The hypothesis of this clinical investigation is that in a population of men and women affected by periocular wrinkles, lip contour wrinkles or deep facial wrinkles, will cross-linked hyaluronic acid (Janesse) significantly decrease the appearance of facial wrinkles, results observed after 4, 8 and 12 weeks.

Read the detailed description

Janesse®'s action is to increase the volume of dermal-epidermal tissue based on the natural ability of hydrophilic hyaluronic acid molecules to bind to an amount of water many times greater than their weight. This allow to fill the intradermal spaces and integrate the intercellular matrix, conferring turgidity to the tissues. The cross-linking of the hyaluronic acid contained in the product has the effect of more stable and durable filling over time.

The Research Question of the present study is the following: in a population of men and women affected by periocular wrinkles, lip contour wrinkles or deep facial wrinkles, will cross-linked hyaluronic acid (Janesse®) significantly decrease the appearance of nasolabial wrinkles, results observed after 12 weeks?

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. WSRS score assessed by the Investigator

    To evaluate the overall safety of the medical device and performance of Janesse® dermal filler in terms of absolute change of WSRS score (Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale) assessed by Investigator at 4, 8 and 12 weeks after the initiation of treatment, compared to Baseline Visit (day 0).

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. AE, SAE, ADE, SADE incidence

    AE, SAE, ADE, SADE incidence

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. WSRS score assessed by the patient

    To evaluate the performance of the medical device in terms of change of WSRS score assessed by the subject at 4, 8 and 12 weeks compared to Baseline Visit 1 (day 0).

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale evaluated by the subject

    Subjects will evaluate their skin appearance change compared to before the treatment, as follows:

    • Very Much Improved (1) = Optimal cosmetic result;
    • Much Improved (2) = Market improvement in appearance but not completely optimal. A touch-up would slightly improve the result;
    • Improved (3) = Obvious improvement in appearance from the initial condition, but a touch-up or re-treatment is indicated;
    • No Change (4) = The appearance is essentially the same as the original condition;
    • Worse (5) = The appearance is worse than the original condition.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Treatment satisfaction questionnaire completed by the subject

    To assess the subject satisfaction at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, providing their degree of satisfaction with the treatment on a four-point scale (very satisfied, satisfied, moderate or not satisfied).

    Measured: 12 weeks

  4. Investigator Global Assessment of Performance (IGAP)

    Investigator Global Assessment of Performance (IGAP) Investigator will make photographs at every visit (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) of the area treated in order to evaluate the performance of the treatment at visit 5 using a 4-point scale: 1= very good performance, 2 = good performance, 3 = moderate performance and 4 = poor performance;taken at each visit.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  5. Investigator Global Assessment of Safety (IGAS)

    Investigator Global Assessment of Safety (IGAS) will be reported using the 4-point scale: 1= very good safety, 2 = good safety, 3 = moderate safety and 4 = poor safety. IGAS will be evaluated by the Investigator at Final visit (12 weeks), only;

    Measured: 12 weeks

  6. Patient Global Assessment of Safety (PGAS)

    Patient Global Assessment of Safety (PGAS) will be reported by the subject at the last visit using the 4-point scale: 1= very good safety, 2 = good safety, 3 = moderate safety and 4 = poor safety. PGAS will be evaluated by the patient at Final visit (12 weeks), only.

    Measured: 12 weeks
