Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Investigator Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (IGAIS)At 12 monthsProportion of patients with an IGAIS score between 1 and 3 showing an improvement of ptosis. This item is scaled from 1 to 5, 5 being the worst value.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Patient satisfaction with SGAIS score (Subject Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale)Day 0 to Year 5.The patient satisfaction with SGAIS score will be assessed at each visit. This item is scaled from 1 to 5, 5 being the worst value.
Surgeon satisfaction with IGAIS score (Investigator Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale)Day 0 to month 24The surgeon satisfaction with the IGAIS score will be assessed from intervention (day 0) to 12 months. This item is scaled from 1 to 5, 5 being the worst value.
Improvement of overall facial appearanceDay 0 to Year 5.The improvement of overall facial appearance (harmony) will be assessed using a 5-point patient satisfaction scale. The worst value is very unsatisfied and the highest value is very satisfied.
Age of faceDay 0 to year 5.The age of patient face will be assessed a specific question at each visit.
Safety of SPRING THREAD® Elastic Tensor ThreadDay 0 to month 12.All adverse event will be assessed for the study duration.
