What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of subjects who improved at least 1 grade in both Evaluator-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (ER-SMFRS) and Subject-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (PR-SMFRS)

    Submental Fat Rating Scale is scored on a 5-point scale with 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extreme.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of subjects who improved at least 1 grade in both Evaluator-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (ER-SMFRS) and Subject-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (SR-SMFRS)

    Submental Fat Rating Scale is scored on a 5-point scale with 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extreme.

    Time frame: 12 weeks after the final treatment

  2. Percentage of subjects who improved at least 1 grade of Evaluator-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (ER-SMFRS)

    Submental Fat Rating Scale is scored on a 5-point scale with 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extreme.

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks after the final treatment

  3. Percentage of subjects who improved at least 1 grade of Subject-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (SR-SMFRS)

    Submental Fat Rating Scale is scored on a 5-point scale with 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extreme.

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks after the final treatment

  4. Volume difference of pre-platysmal submental fat around chin area

    Volume of pre-platysmal submental fat around chin area was measured using MRI

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

  5. Volume difference of platysmal submental fat around chin area

    Volume of platysmal submental fat around chin area was measured using MRI

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

  6. Percentage of subjects who improved at least 2 grades in both Evaluator-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (ER-SMFRS) and Subject-Reported Submental Fat Rating Scale (SR-SMFRS)

    Submental Fat Rating Scale is scored on a 5-point scale with 0 = absent, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extreme.

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks after the final treatment

  7. Difference of Subject Self Satisfaction Scale (SSSS)

    Subject Self Satisfaction Scale (SSSS) assesses participants' satisfaction with their appearance in association with the face and chin on a 7-point scale from 0 to 6 with 0 = Extremely dissatisfied, 1 = Dissatisfied, 2 = Slightly dissatisfied, 3 = Neither satisfied nor dissatisfied, 4 = Slightly satisfied, 5 = Satisfied and 6 = Extremely satisfied.

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks after the final treatment

  8. Difference of Patient-Reported Submental Fat Impact Scale (PR-SMFIS) score

    Patients are asked to rate the visual and emotional impact that the appearance of submental fullness had on their self-perception using 11-point scale range from 0 (no impact) to 10 (extreme impact).

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks after the final treatment

  9. Difference of volume of submental fat around chin area analyzed with 3D

    Volume of submental fat around chin area is measured using a 3D scanner photograph

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

  10. Patient Global Impression of Change scale (PGIC)

    Patient global impression of change scale (PGIC) is to rate patients total improvement or worsening in the appearance since before the first treatment compared to final treatment with 1 = Very much improved, 2 = Much improved, 3 = Minimally improved, 4 = No change, 5 = Minimally worse, 6 = Much worse, 7 = Very much worse.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

  11. Difference of Derriford Appearance Scale 24 (DAS24)

    Difference of Derriford Appearance Scale 24 (DAS24) score is to measure distress and dysfunction to problems of appearance with 24 item scale.

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment

  12. Difference of Body Image Quality Life Inventory (BIQLI) score

    Body Image Quality Life Inventory (BIQLI) assesses participants' body image using 7 point ranging from -3 (very negative) to +3 (very positive).

    Time frame: 4 weeks after the final treatment
