PLLA-LASYNPRO™ Injections for Skin Laxity Treatment (Juläine)
Evaluation of Histological Outcomes Following Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA) LASYNPRO™ Injections for Skin Laxity Treatment in Patients Requiring Post Bariatric Surgery: A Proof-of-Concept Clinical Study
This single-center, open-label, intra-subject controlled proof-of-concept clinical study will evaluate the histological and clinical effects of Poly-L-lactic Acid (PLLA) LASYNPRO™ (Juläine) injections for treatment of skin laxity in patients requiring post-bariatric surgery. Fifteen participants will be enrolled. Each participant will serve as his or her own control, with one thigh treated with PLLA LASYNPRO™ and the contralateral thigh left untreated.
Participants will receive 3 injections in the treated thigh over approximately 3 months, followed by planned post-bariatric plastic surgery at 3, 6, or 9 months after the last injection, depending on assigned group. During surgery, tissue samples from treated and untreated areas will be collected for histological evaluation. A follow-up visit will occur approximately 30 days after surgery.
The primary endpoint is comparison of collagen type I and collagen type III between treated and untreated areas. Secondary endpoints include histological comparison of elastic fibers, stromal cell populations, inflammatory biomarkers, cell proliferation markers, and assessment of stretch marks, as well as safety. An exploratory endpoint is assessment of post-operative scar healing.

Investigator-rated improvement of atrophic skin changes in proximity to stretch marks in the JULÄINE-treated thigh compared to baseline, assessed on standardised photographs using a 5-point Global Aesthetic Improvement scale (-1 to +3)
時間枠:Through study completion, an average of 1 year
|
Standardised digital photographs of the JULÄINE-treated thigh are acquired from baseline (Visit 1, before the first injection) through to the end of the study.
The investigator compares baseline vs post-treatment photographs side-by-side and rates the change in atrophic skin changes in proximity to stretch marks on a 5-point Global Aesthetic Improvement scale: -1 = worsened (deterioration vs baseline); 0 = no change; +1 = slight improvement; +2 = moderate improvement; +3 = marked improvement.
Subjects with no visible stretch marks or atrophic skin changes in the treated area at baseline are classified as Not Applicable and excluded from the analysis.

Proportion of subjects by post-operative wound appearance category (well healed / mild inflammation / dehiscence / infection / other) in the JULÄINE-treated thigh compared to the untreated thigh, assessed on physical examination
時間枠:30 days from post-bariatric surgery for each group
|
At the follow-up visit (Visit 5, 30 days after post-bariatric surgery and biopsy) the investigator performs a physical examination of the surgical wound on both the JULÄINE-treated thigh and the contralateral untreated thigh (intra-subject control).
Wound appearance is classified by the investigator into one of the following categories: well healed, mild inflammation, dehiscence, infection, or other (specified).
The outcome is reported as the number and proportion of subjects in each wound-appearance category, separately for the treated thigh and the untreated thigh.
