The FACE-Q provides clinicians and researchers with the ability to tailor a version of the questionnaire to suit their needs. This tailored approach is possible because the FACE-Q is composed of over 40 scales that measure a range of concepts important to patients.
The FACE-Q conceptual framework was developed from extensive qualitative research with facial aesthetic patients, close examination of the research literature and engagement of healthcare professionals working with facial rejuvenation patients. We followed internationally recommended guidelines for patient-reported outcome instrument development to ensure the FACE-Q meets requirements of regulatory bodies.
