Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Improvement in overall patient satisfaction - Satisfaction with facial appearance and eyes
Demonstrate an improvement in overall patient satisfaction by comparing pre-operative and post-operative patient reported outcome scores. FACE-Q - Aesthetics - Appearance - Satisfaction with facial appearance FACE-Q - Aesthetics - Appearance - Satisfaction with Eyes On a scale of 1-4 Very Dissatisfied being 1 and Very Satisfied being 4
Surgeon Satisfaction and Efficiency
Demonstrate surgeon satisfaction and efficiency with Ziplyft™, measured by Surgeon Satisfaction Survey with questions focused on ease of procedure, patient tolerance, device useability, surgical technique, procedural time, wound closure, need for suture, ease of achieving symmetry, device placement on the lid crease, cutting mechanism, seal of the zipper-locked tissue, surgical time and evaluating for post-operative complications with 5 being better outcome and 1 being worse.
Improvement in Eye Age
Demonstrate improvement in Eye Age and Face Age after the Ziplyft™ procedure. FACE-Q - Aesthetics - Appearance - Aging Appraisal On a scale of 1-4, with 1 being Definitely Disagree and 4 being Definitely agree
Measure the success of tissue adhesive for wound closure.
Measuring the success of the tissue adhesive involves evaluating the following: Visual inspection, Adhesion strength and adherence, and Patient satisfaction. Questions added in the patient satisfaction survey about comfort of glue, ease of blinking, aesthetically acceptable with 1 being a worse outcome and 4 being better.
