Facial Treatment Preferences in Aesthetically Aware Women

IntroductionBest–worst scaling (BWS) is becoming increasingly popular to elicit preferences in health care. However, little is known about current practice and trends in the use of BWS in health care. This study aimed to identify, review and critically appraise BWS in health care, and to identify trends over time in key aspects of BWS.MethodsA systematic review was conducted, using Medline (via Pubmed) and EMBASE to identify all English-language BWS studies published up until April 2016. Using a predefined extraction form, two reviewers independently selected articles and critically appraised the study quality, using the Purpose, Respondents, Explanation, Findings, Significance (PREFS) checklist. Trends over time periods (≤2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015) were assessed further.ResultsA total of 62 BWS studies were identified, of which 26 were BWS object case studies, 29 were BWS profile case studies and seven were BWS multi-profile case studies. About two thirds of the studies were performed in the last 2 years. Decreasing sample sizes and decreasing numbers of factors in BWS object case studies, as well as use of less complicated analytical methods, were observed in recent studies. The quality of the BWS studies was generally acceptable according to the PREFS checklist, except that most studies did not indicate whether the responders were similar to the non-responders.ConclusionUse of BWS object case and BWS profile case has drastically increased in health care, especially in the last 2 years. In contrast with previous discrete-choice experiment reviews, there is increasing use of less sophisticated analytical methods.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s40273-016-0429-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…After turning 30, more than 50% of women have dark circles under their eyes. Thus, the treatment of dark circles is the 7 th most popular aesthetic treatment (1). After turning 50, women prefer to treat their lower facial area, while, before turning 45, they prefer to treat their upper facial area (1).…”

This study intends to highlight the results of the product Teosyal Redensity II through the cumulative effects of its constituents, that have an antioxidant, hydrating, filling and facial restructuring role. The study was performed in the Arestetic Clinic, Galai, between 07.12.2015 and 07.12.2016 on a group of 49 patients, of which 43 women and 6 men. Teosyal Redensity 2 proved to be a safe product - as long as it is injected correctly, it does not cause complications. It�s easy to inject and has a very high efficiency. It�s a periorbital rejuvenation and restructuring product, with a filling, antioxidant, hydration and dermal redensification effect. In the case of persons that needed a second injection after 1 month, one could observe a major improvement in elasticity and firmness felt by the person performing the injection. The injection requires small quantities of the substance and is accompanied by only mild discomfort. The result is visible right away.

“…The greatest differences in mean severity of ageing between Australia and the other countries were seen for glabellar and crow's feet lines, and for volume‐related tear troughs and nasolabial folds. Based on these findings, it might be expected that a greater proportion of fair‐skinned Australian women might seek facial aesthetic treatment at earlier ages than US women to address these signs of ageing.…”

“…Volume‐related changes (oral commissures, tear troughs, nasolabial folds) usually assumed to be caused by intrinsic ageing were also reported at earlier ages in Australian women, suggesting that environmental influences may also impact volume‐related ageing. These findings may have implications for the understanding and management of Australian women's facial aesthetic concerns, particularly with regard to their prioritisation of facial areas that require anti‐ageing treatment compared with those of US women …”

Comparison of self‐reported signs of facial ageing among Caucasian women in Australia versus those in the USA, the UK and Canada

Background/ObjectivesAustralians are more exposed to higher solar UV radiation levels that accelerate signs of facial ageing than individuals who live in temperate northern countries. The severity and course of self‐reported facial ageing among fair‐skinned Australian women were compared with those living in Canada, the UK and the USA.MethodsWomen voluntarily recruited into a proprietary opt‐in survey panel completed an internet‐based questionnaire about their facial ageing. Participants aged 18–75 years compared their features against photonumeric rating scales depicting degrees of severity for forehead, crow's feet and glabellar lines, tear troughs, midface volume loss, nasolabial folds, oral commissures and perioral lines. Data from Caucasian and Asian women with Fitzpatrick skin types I–III were analysed by linear regression for the impact of country (Australia versus Canada, the UK and the USA) on ageing severity for each feature, after controlling for age and race.ResultsAmong 1472 women, Australians reported higher rates of change and significantly more severe facial lines (P ≤ 0.040) and volume‐related features like tear troughs and nasolabial folds (P ≤ 0.03) than women from the other countries. More Australians also reported moderate to severe ageing for all features one to two decades earlier than US women.ConclusionsAustralian women reported more severe signs of facial ageing sooner than other women and volume‐related changes up to 20 years earlier than those in the USA, which may suggest that environmental factors also impact volume‐related ageing. These findings have implications for managing their facial aesthetic concerns.

Facial Treatment Preferences in Aesthetically Aware Women

Abstract: This cross-sectional survey suggests that aesthetically oriented women have changing facial treatment preferences with age; however, CFLs are of most concern.
