About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized Controlled Split-face Trial of a Fractional Microneedle Radiofrequency Device(FMR) and Fractional Erbium-Doped Glass 1,565-nm Device(NAFL) Therapy in Baggy Lower Eyelids

The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of FMR and NAFL in the treatment of baggy lower eyelids(BLEs)

Read the detailed description

Fifteen baggy lower eyelids(BLEs) volunteers were recruited prospectively. Everyone was divided into two groups with FMR and NAFL according to the random number table. One side of the face was treated with FMR device and the other side was treated with NAFL device. Subjective and objective adverse reactions were recorded during the operation. Subjective adverse reactions were recorded after each treatment. The VAS score of patient satisfaction and the blind method score of standard photo observer were used for subjective evaluation, and the objective evaluation was carried out by using VISIA,Antera-3D and CineScan.

  • Treatment one side BLE by NAFLProcedure or surgery

    One side of the patient face underwent treatment using the ResurFX module of M22 (Lumenis Co., Yokneam, Israel) randomly.

  • Treatment another side BLE by FMRProcedure or surgery

    One side of the patient face underwent treatment using FMR device (INFINI, Lutronic Co., Goyang-si, Korea).

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient Satisfaction Scores(PSS)

    Patients scored their satisfaction used 10-point Visual analogue scales (VAS, 0 = unsatisfied, 10= very satisfied)

    Measured: Change from Baseline PSS at 1-month after 3rd treatment, Change from Baseline PSS at 3-month after 3rd treatment, Change from 1-month after 3rd treatment PSS at 3-month after 3rd treatment.

  2. Blinded Investigator Assesement(BIA)

    The physician's severity score of standard photographs used VAS 0-4(VAS, 0 = no eyelid bags, 4= very obvious eyelid bags)

    Measured: Change from Baseline BIA at 1-month after 3rd treatment, Change from Baseline BIA at 3-month after 3rd treatment, Change from 1-month after 3rd treatment BIA at 3-month after 3rd treatment.

  3. Periorbital wrinkles assessment by VISIA system(VISIA)

    VISIA Complexion Analysis System (Canfield Imaging Systems, Fairfield, New Jersey, USA)

    Measured: Change from Baseline VISIA at 1-month after 3rd treatment, Change from Baseline VISIA at 3-month after 3rd treatment, Change from 1-month after 3rd treatment VISIA at 3-month after 3rd treatment.

  4. Change of BLEs by ANTERA-3D(ANTERA-3D)

    volume of elevations (mm3), elevation area (mm2), and the maximum peak height volume of elevations (mm3), elevation area (mm2), and the maximum peak height We assessment the volume(mm3), elevation area (mm2), and the maximum peak height (mm) of elevations(mm) by ANRERA-3D camera (Miravex Limited, Ireland).

    Measured: Change from Baseline ANTERA-3D at 1-month after 3rd treatment, Change from Baseline ANTERA-3D at 3-month after 3rd treatment, Change from 1-month after 3rd treatment ANTERA-3D at 3-month after 3rd treatment.

  5. Orbital fat depth and length by CineScan assessment(CineScan)

    Orbital fat depth(mm) and length(mm) by CineScan Ultrasonic Ophthalmic A and B scan System (Quantel Medical Inc., Bozeman, Montana, USA).

    Measured: Change from Baseline CineScan at 1-month after 3rd treatment, Change from Baseline CineScan at 3-month after 3rd treatment, Change from 1-month after 3rd treatment CineScan at 3-month after 3rd treatment.

Model description
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of FMR and NAFL for the treatment of BLEs in Asian. After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent. Patients were randomly divided into FMR side and NAFL opposite side 3 times in total at a 1-month interval. FMR side has been used by FMR device (INFINI, Lutronic Co., Goyang-si, Korea) and the NAFL side has been used by ResurFX module of M22 (Lumenis Co., Yokneam, Israel).
