Filter by:The investigators aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of SJW-PDT compared to indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-PDT in the treatment of acne. The investigators also investigated the skin rejuvenating effects of SJW-PDT.
To date measuring the effect of dermocosmetic products on the main identified factors of aging and alteration of the skin barrier is based on invasive and expensive experiments. Electrochemistry enables to measure a specific signal for a substance of interest e.g. Vitamin C using an surface contact with an electrode. Therefore, this study will evaluate the reliability and feasibility of measurements of skin's hydration parameters such as NMF and squalene using electrochemistry. These study will be made on three groups of individuals with different skin types: dry skin i.e. atopic dermatitis patients, oily skin i.e. acne skin and a control group of individual without facial dermatosis. Collects of parameters of interest will be made by using patch using electrochemistry (contact with an electrode and potentiostat to detect an electric signal) . It is a simple method that relies on a sensor / electrode pair that allows a study of the surface molecules of the skin. Application in the measurement of vitamin C in food products has already been validated. On a second hand, a collect by chromatography of the parameters of interest will be carried out in order to compare the new method with the reference method. This procedure has been developed via a procedure including collecting surface parameters using a patch an developping special electrodes and miniaturized detecting signal tool (potentiostat)
Demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the GentleMax Pro Plus™ laser system for its intended uses: hair removal including pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB), clearance of pigmented and/or vascular lesions, temporary increase of clear nail in patients with onychomycosis and improvement in appearance of wrinkles. Evaluate GentleMax Pro Plus™ laser system for the clearance of acne.
The goal of the present study is to assess the safety of a topical probiotic (probiotic strain; SS-POR11) on acne prone-skin, and the impact of SS-POR11 on the distribution of porphyrins, in subjects with mild-to-moderate acne [Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) 1-3].
The aim of this study is to evaluate, at different times, the RV3278A - ET0943 cosmetic product efficacy after 8 weeks of application on the face (twice-daily application). At T1 (Baseline), T2 (4 weeks) and T3 (8 weeks), the following assessments are performed: - The reduction of the pilosebaceous follicular ostium size in vivo (pores) on the forehead - The clinical evaluation (count of non inflammatory and inflammatory acne lesions, IGA score) of the face - The reduction in visible follicles - The standardized numerical photographs of face and ¾ right and left profile in normal, parallel polarized, cross polarized and UV light - The analysis of the skin lipids of the forehead - The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the sebum and comedones constituents (nose wings) This is a comparative, open-labelled study, on subjects with oily and acne prone skins on the face. Each group includes 18 subjects.
The scope of this open label clinical trial is to evaluate and confirm the performance of Papix acne scar in the prevention and improvement of acne scars in subject suffering for mild to moderate acne. The product will be applied for 8 consecutive weeks and 3 clinical follow up visits will be performed.
Almost 35% of patients treated to dermatosis have some psychiatric disorder. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence and severity of skin picking disorder and other dermatosis, and also test the efficacy of an online-delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy to improve skin picking disorder severity.
The impact of tailored patient-provider communication to improve clinical trial recruitment, patient knowledge, and patient engagement will be studied. Tailored patient-provider communication refers to the individualization of patient-provider communication using patients' preferred methods of communication. This involves the utilization of social messaging such as e-mail or text and/or social media platforms. These communication methods purport to and meet individual patient needs whilst ensuring that information is received and in a format that is familiar to each patient. The primary outcomes of the proposed research is to evaluate the impact of tailored patient-provider communication on patient response rates (speed and number), clinical trial recruitment rates, patient knowledge, and patient engagement.
Acne is common illness of adolescents and young adults which is associated with substantial morbidity. While topical treatments are often sufficient for mild acne, moderate to severe acne often requires treatment with systemic medications such as oral antibiotics, hormonal therapies such spironolactone, and isotretinoin. Sebum overproduction is fundamental to the pathogenesis of acne with associated disordered keratinization and subsequent microbial colonization and inflammation resulting in the clinical manifestations of acne. Given the influence of hormones on sebum production, therapies that address these underlying hormonal factors such as spironolactone and oral contraceptive pills represent an underutilized treatment option for women with acne and could help decrease the use of long-term oral antibiotics in this patient population. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of spironolactone versus doxycycline hyclate (tetracycline class antibiotic) for women with acne.
A 12-week randomized, multicenter and double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effect of a probiotic in the clinical and subjective evolution of acne in adolescent and adult patients.
