Conditions

Lip Rejuvenation

Brief summary

20 subjects with mild to severe oral commissures or none to severe perioral lines will be enrolled and injected with Restylane® Silk. Photographs will be taken prior to and 14 days after Optimal Cosmetic Results has been achieved, as judged by the investigator. Changes in the projected first impression will be assessed by a total of 200 blinded evaluators rating the photographs of subjects from the baseline and from 14 days post achieving the Optimal Cosmetic Results. Changes in subjects' mood will be self-assessed through Subjective Happiness Scale and Happiness Measures questionnaires. Aesthetic alterations will be assessed by the investigator via the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale, Oral Commissure Severity Scale, and the Perioral Lines Severity Scale as well as by the self-assessment of subjects using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale.

Interventions

Restylane® Silk (Galderma Laboratories, L.P.) is a hyaluronic acid injectable filler, which is approved by the FDA for submucosal implantation for lip augmentation and dermal implantation for correction of perioral rhytids.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
First Impressions1 monthThe projected first impressions are assessed by blinded evaluators using photographs. The projected first impressions are assessed by blinded evaluators using the First Impression Questionnaire (FIQ). Each of the below First Impression Questionnaire (FIQ) categories is scored between 1 (disagree)-10 (agree) and a total of 8 categories (see below) are assessed for a total possible score of 80. All scores will be graded out of a total possible score of 80 points Social skills Academic Performance Dating Success Occupational success Attractiveness Financial Success Relationship success Athletic success Total scores closer to 80 indicate a more favorable outcome.
