Aesthetics · PRO · FACE-Q

FACE-Q, turned into regulatory-grade data.

FACE-Q is the reference PRO for facial aesthetics, but only if you use the right scales and collect the data cleanly. Here is how to make it count for fillers and PRP.

Aesthetic evidence that reviewers accept.

FACE-Q done well is powerful evidence; done badly it is noise. Our biometry team makes it count.

The instrument

What FACE-Q measures, and how to use it.

FACE-Q is a validated, modular PRO for facial aesthetics. Its power is in choosing the right modules and scales for your device and claim.

01

What FACE-Q is

FACE-Q is a validated, modular patient-reported outcome instrument developed to measure the outcomes of facial aesthetic procedures. It is organised into independently scored scales covering satisfaction with appearance, quality of life, the process of care and adverse effects.

02

Selecting the right scales

You do not use all of FACE-Q. You choose the scales that match your device and claim.

Match scales to the claim

  • Satisfaction with facial areas for fillers (cheeks, lips, nasolabial folds)
  • Satisfaction with skin for PRP and rejuvenation
  • Psychological and social function for quality-of-life claims
  • Adverse-effect checklists for safety endpoints

03

Combining with GAIS and WSRS

FACE-Q captures patient satisfaction; it is strongest paired with a global rating and an objective measure. Combining it with GAIS (global improvement) and WSRS (objective wrinkle severity) gives a complete evidence package for regulators and patients.

04

Collecting it cleanly

High-quality FACE-Q data needs validated translations, correct scoring (Rasch-based conversion, not raw sums), and high completion. We deploy it on a compliant ePRO platform with the right scoring and reminders, so the numbers are usable.

Questions we hear first

FACE-Q for aesthetics, answered.

What is FACE-Q?
FACE-Q is a validated, modular patient-reported outcome instrument for facial aesthetic procedures, organised into independently scored scales covering satisfaction with appearance, quality of life, the process of care and adverse effects.
Do I use all of FACE-Q?
No. You select the scales that match your device and claim, for example satisfaction with specific facial areas for fillers, satisfaction with skin for PRP, and quality-of-life scales where you make a psychosocial claim.
Should FACE-Q be combined with other measures?
Yes. FACE-Q captures patient satisfaction and is strongest combined with GAIS for global improvement and WSRS for objective wrinkle severity, giving a complete evidence package for regulators and patients.
How is FACE-Q scored?
FACE-Q uses Rasch-based conversion of responses into scores rather than raw sums, so correct scoring and validated translations are essential to producing usable, comparable data.
