This study aims to assess efficacy and safety of Sculptra in the treatment of skin flaccidity in selected areas - arms, anteromedial region, and gluteal regions. To assess the efficacy of Sculptra®, via adapted Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale -GAIS- score determined by blind evaluator, in the treatment of skin flaccidity on the anteromedial region of arm and gluteal region, 4 months after initiating the treatment, based on the assessment of the corporal side randomized to be the first to receive treatment . Considering as an alternative hypothesis of interest a 70% value of the subjects the treated side would have higher GAIS than the untreated side.
Ethical and General considerations regarding the study conduction: This study protocol will be reviewed and approved by appropriate IEC/IRB prior to the initiation of the study.
Clinical monitoring: Study conduction will be closely monitored by Galderma representatives, following GCP regulations, applicable standard operating procedures, guides and local regulations.
Data Management: Data may be audited by Galderma Quality Assurance Department and/or CRO prior to or after results of the first statistical analysis on the primary discretion.
Quality assurance, auditing and Inspection: The study will be carried out under the sponsorship of Galderma in accordance with all local and federal regulations, as well as ICH guidelines. Audits and inspections at the research site may be conducted by Galderma representatives or local authorities. All aspects in any study step can be audited by Galderma Quality Assurance / CRO and, as a result, a certificate stating this will be provided.

The study sample will be stratified to include 50% of subjects, who will receive Sculptra treatment on the antero-medial side of the arms and approximately 50% of subjects, who will receive Sculptra treatment in the gluteal area, in order to exploratory analyzes by subgroup.
During the study, the subjects should come to the research site up to nine times: one for the screening/inclusion visit (SV), three treatment visits (TVs) for Side 1 (from 1 to 14 days after SV, and from 1 to 2 months after first session), three TVs for Side 2 (4, 5 and 6 months after the first S1 treatment session), one follow-up visit (FUV), 6 months after the first S2 treatment session) and a final visit (FV) (12 months after the first S1 session). After 4 months of the first treatment we will compare the results between the first treated side and non-treated side.

P.S. To assess the efficacy of Sculptra, via adapted Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale score determined by blind evaluator (Outcomes assessor ), in the treatment of skin flaccidity on the anteromedial region of arm and gluteal region, 4 months after initiating the treatment, based on the assessment of the corporal side randomized to be the first to receive treatment. I input as NO MASKING because appears ERROR when I included Outcomes assessor.
