  • Inflammation, active or chronic infection (e.g., in mouth, dentals, head, eye);
  • Current cutaneous inflammatory or infectious processes near or on the area to be treated (e.g., acne, dermatitis, herpes) which, in the Treating Investigator's opinion, would interfere with the study injections and/or study assessments;
  • Scars (other than from acne) or deformities;
  • Cancer, or precancerous conditions (e.g., actinic keratosis or actinic cheilitis).
  • Evidence of scar-related disease or delayed healing activity within 1 year prior to the Baseline visit, or subjects susceptible to keloid formation, hyperpigmentation or hypertrophic scarring in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Presence of tattoo, piercing, beard or facial hair, which, in the Treating Investigator's opinion, would interfere with the study injections and/or study assessment.
  • Presence of a dental, oral, or facial condition which, in the Treating Investigator's opinion, would interfere with the study injections and/or study assessments, e.g., has dentures or any device covering all or part of the upper palate, and/or severe malocclusion or dentofacial or maxillofacial deformities. Any planned procedure (e.g., dental implants, tooth extractions, orthodontia) during the study period, that would make the subject unsuitable for inclusion in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • An underlying known disease, a surgical or medical condition that would expose the subject to undue risk, e.g., history of bleeding disorders, active hepatitis, active autoimmune disease such as connective tissue diseases, systemic lupus erythematosus, polymyositis, dermatomyositis, or scleroderma.
  • Use of concomitant medication that have the potential to prolong bleeding times such as anticoagulants or inhibitors of platelet aggregation (e.g., warfarin, clopidogrel, aspirin or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], Omega-3 or Vitamin E), within 14 days prior to injection. Omega-3 and Vitamin E are acceptable only as part of a standard multivitamin formulation. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX 2) inhibitors are allowed.

  • Presence of any condition or situation, which in the opinion of the Treating Investigator makes the subject unable to complete the study per protocol, e.g.
  • Subject is not likely to avoid other prohibited facial cosmetic treatments;
  • Subject is not likely to complete the study because of other commitments;
  • Subject is anticipated to be unavailable for visits, incapable of understanding the investigational assessments or having unrealistic expectations of treatment result;
  • Subject who has a concomitant condition (e.g., acute viral or bacterial infection with fever) that might confuse or confound study treatments or assessments.
  • Study center personnel, close relatives of the study center personnel (e.g., parents, children, siblings, or spouse), employees or close relatives of employees at the Sponsor company.
  • Participation in any other interventional clinical study within 30 days before treatment.

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Evaluator-blinded, No-treatment Controlled, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Restylane Skinboosters Vital Lidocaine for Improvement in Skin Quality of the Face

This is a randomized, evaluator-blinded, no-treatment controlled, study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Restylane Skinboosters Vital Lidocaine treatment to improve skin quality of the face in China. Subjects of Chinese origin, age 18 years, who are eligible for treatment to improve skin quality of the face. Study center is up to 8.

A total of approximately 171 subjects will be randomized (2:1) to either treatment with Restylane Skinboosters Vital Lidocaine Treatment Group (approximately 114 subjects) or no-treatment Control Group (approximately 57 subjects).

Being tested
Restylane Skinboosters Vital Lidocaine

No treatmentNo interventionNo treatment control group.

What is being measured

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

  1. Responder rate based on the Blinded Evaluators' live assessment using the Galderma Skin Quality - Fine Lines Scale (GSQ-FLS).

    A responder is defined as a subject with at least 1-grade improvement from Baseline in both sides of the face concurrently on the scale. GSQ-FLS is a 5-grade scale with a higher score meaning a worse situation in fine line.

    Measured: At Week 12 after Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Responder rate based on the Blinded Evaluators' live assessment using the GSQ-FLS

    Measured: At Week 16, 20, 24, 36, 48 and 60 after Baseline for the Treatment Group or at Week 16, 20 and 24 after Baseline for the no-treatment Control Group. GSQ-FLS is a 5-grade scale with a higher score meaning a worse situation in fine line.
