Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Treated Subjects With Improvement in Lines and Wrinkles of the Décolleté at Day 90Day 90Improvement in lines and wrinkles of the décolleté were determined after comparing Day 90 photographs with baseline photographs. Improvement was concluded if at least two evaluators assessed the Day 90 photographs as improved compared to baseline.

Improvement was concluded if at least two evaluators assessed the Day 180 photographs as improved compared to baseline.
Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)From Day 1 up to end of the study (Up to Day 180)TEAEs were defined as adverse events (AEs) with onset or worsening on or after date of first administration of Octave-Ultherapy Treatment.

Outcome results

Primary

Percentage of Treated Subjects With Improvement in Lines and Wrinkles of the Décolleté at Day 90
