| Efficacy and Safety Study of FS VH S/D 4 in Face-Lift Procedures |
| An Exploratory Phase 2 Clinical Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of the Adjuvant Use of Fibrin Sealant With 4 IU/mL Thrombin, Vapor Heated, Solvent Detergent Treated Containing Synthetic Aprotinin (FS VH S/D 4) in Subjects Undergoing Facial Rhytidectomy |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fibrin sealant with 4 IU/mL thrombin, vapor heated, solvent detergent treated (FS VH S/D 4) when used to reduce early postoperative bruising in subjects undergoing a face-lift. |
