About this study
Official title: Clinical Evaluation of the Tolerability of Using a Post Treatment Topical Adjuvant Combination Following Fractional Radiofrequency Ablation Using the Venus Viva
The purpose of this study is to compare the tolerability of the application of a combination of a serum containing human bone marrow stem cell derived growth factor (SCR Complex) and cytokines and a botanical lipid-based occlusive (Bio Cel) immediately following fractional radiofrequency treatment using the Venus Viva versus standard of care.
Read the detailed description
Randomized, open-label, multi-centre study to evaluate the tolerability of the application of a combination of a serum containing human bone marrow stem cell derived growth factor and cytokines (SCR Complex™) and a botanical lipid based occlusive (Bio Cel™) following facial fractional RF treatments using the Venus Viva™ SR system. Each subject will receive 2 treatments separated by a 3-week interval. Subjects will complete a VAS and Tolerability Scale immediately following each treatment. Telephone follow-up calls by the site will ask the subject to respond to the Self-Report Adverse Event Questionnaire 24 and 72 hours after the first treatment and 24 hours after the second treatment. Subjects will complete a Home Tolerability Scale 24 and 72 hours after the first treatment and 24 hours after the second treatment. Subjects will return for the final FU visit and be asked to respond to the Self-Report Adverse Event Questionnaire and complete the Home Tolerability Scale for 72 hours. The investigator will also evaluate the subject's improvement using the GAIS at this visit.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Subject Treatment Tolerability Score Post Treatment 1 at 24hrs Post Treatment
Tolerability 5-point Likert scale where 4 - Very Tolerable, 3 - Tolerable, 2 - Having no opinion, 1 - Intolerable and 0 - very intolerable; The higher the score, the more tolerable the subject indicates the treatment is.
Measured: 24hr post treatment one
Subject Treatment Tolerability Score Post Treatment 1 at 72hrs Post Treatment
Tolerability 5-point Likert scale where 4 - Very Tolerable, 3 - Tolerable, 2 - Having no opinion, 1 - Intolerable and 0 - very intolerable; The higher the score, the more tolerable the subject indicates the treatment is.
Measured: 72 hrs post treatment one
Subject Treatment Tolerability Score Post Treatment 2 at 24hrs Post Treatment
Tolerability 5-point Likert scale where 4 - Very Tolerable, 3 - Tolerable, 2 - Having no opinion, 1 - Intolerable and 0 - very intolerable; The higher the score, the more tolerable the subject indicates the treatment is.
Measured: 24hr post treatment two
Subject Treatment Tolerability Score Post Treatment 2 at 72 Hrs Post Treatment
Tolerability 5-point Likert scale where 4 - Very Tolerable, 3 - Tolerable, 2 - Having no opinion, 1 - Intolerable and 0 - very intolerable; The higher the score, the more tolerable the subject indicates the treatment is.
Measured: 72hr post treatment two
Secondary outcomes (3)
Visual Analog Scale
10 cm Subject discomfort scale where 10 cm indicates 'Pain as bad as it can be' and 0 cm indicates there is no pain at all associated with the application of the treatment. Zero pain means a better outcome. Subjects were categorized as to having no pain (0 - 0.4cm), mild pain (0.5 - 4.4cm), moderate pain (4.5 - 7.4cm) and severe pain (7.5 - 10cm).
Measured: immediately following radio-frequency treatment
Fitzpatrick Wrinkle and Elastosis Scale
Investigator assessment of improvement in wrinkles and elastosis where Class I indicates fine wrinkles, Class II indicates fine to moderate depth wrinkles with a moderate number of lines and Class III indicates fine to deep wrinkles, numerous lines with or without redundant skin folds with a score of 1 - 3 (Mild) indicates fine texture changes with subtly accentuated skin lines, a score of 4 - 6 (Moderate) indicates distinct papular elastosis ([indvidual papules with yellow translucency under direct lighting] and dyschromia and a score of 7 - 9 (Severe) indicates multipapular and confluent elastosis [thickened yellow and pallid] approaching or consistent with cutis rhomboidalis. A lower class and a lower score means a better outcome. Subjects were divided into 3 categories - No change in FWES score, change in FWES score by one and non-evaluable.
Measured: change in appearance of wrinkles from baseline and at end of study, average of 24 days
Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale
Investigator assessment of aesthetic improvement where 1 shows exceptional improvement, 2 shows very improved, 3 shows improvement, 4 shows unchanged and 5 indicates that the subject appearance has worsened. A low score means a better outome. Subjects were categorized to either GAIS improved or GAIS no change.
Measured: change in skin appearance between baseline and at end of study, average of 24 days
