Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Profhilo®
The 1st treatment was performed during the basal visit and repeated after 1 month. 3 mL of Profhilo® for each brachial zone, 1.5 mL for hemiabdomen was injected into the middle-deep dermis by needle (29 G) using a bolus technique called "BAP" (Bio Aesthetic Point technique); this technique involves a series of 10 micro-wheals on 3 horizontal-levels for each tested areas (3-4-3 injection points respectively for the 1st, the 2nd and the 3rd horizontal-level). The amount of product to be injected was of 0.3 ml for each point. |
Profhilo® (IBSA Farmaceutici Italia S.r.l.) is a resorbable medical device 2.25 ml non-pyrogenic pre-filled syringe, containing 2 ml of 3.2% hyaluronic acid for intradermal use (32 mg H-HA + 32 mg L-HA dissolved in 2 ml of saline buffered sodium chloride.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from baseline of arm skin roughness and laxity clinical grade
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Skin roughness and laxity clinical grade, according to a visual score from 1 (no roughness and flaccidity) to 5 (very severe roughness and flaccidity).
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of abdomen skin roughness and laxity clinical grade
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Skin roughness and laxity clinical grade, according to a visual score from 1 (no roughness and flaccidity) to 5 (very severe roughness and flaccidity).
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of superficial skin hydration
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Skin electrical capacitance value was measured mono-laterally on the right or left inner arm and hemiabdomen with Corneometer CM825 (Courage - Khazaka, Köln, Germany).
The measure of the skin capacitance properties is an indirect expression of its hydration level.
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of deep skin hydration
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Tissue dielectric constant value of superficial and deep skin layers was measured mono-laterally on the right or left inner arm and hemiabdomen with MoistureMeterD (Delfin Technologies, Kuopio - Finland)
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of skin density
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
A little skin area of about 7 cm2 (at level of inner arm was pinched, in standardized conditions, using a specific device.
Because of this "pinch" the skin profile changes depending on cutaneous density; when the skin is slack the "pinch" forms a lot of wrinkles.
A picture of the skin pinched was taken thanks to Primos compact portable device (GFMesstechnik); Primos software is able to measure skin principal profilometric parameters.
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of skin plastoelasticity
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Superficial and deep skin plastoelasticity was measured mono-laterally on the right or left inner arm and hemiabdomen with the instrument Dermal Torque Meter (Dia-Stron Ltd., UK).
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
Change from baseline of photographic documentation
Time Frame: Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
|
2D pictures of the abdomen and inner arm
|
Baseline (T0), 1 month (T1), 4 months (T2)
