Filter by:This open-label, multi-center clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the dual skincare regimen of vitamin C serum and moisturizing sunscreen SPF 45 to improve facial hyperpigmentation and photodamage after 12 weeks of twice daily use in healthy female subjects between 35 - 60 years old. A total of 33 subjects completed study participation.
The investigators aim to investigate the efficacy and tolerability of a hybrid non-ablative/ablative laser for acne scarring in skin of color.
The purpose of this research study is to measure the depigmenting effect of a serum product called Liftactiv B3 in patients with mild to moderate facial PIHP (Post Inflammatory Hyper Pigmentation)
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is a common pigmentary skin disorder that is refractory to treatment. The treatment for postinflammatory hyperpigmentation is limited. Recent studies have shown that the topical skin care product cysteamine cream has a significant decrease in melanin index without obvious side effects in other dark spots such as melasma. The goal of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of topical cysteamine in the treatment of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
The treatment of leg veins and varicosis with sclerotherapy is one of the most frequently performed medical intervention in the western world. The most common local side effects of this treatment are hyperpigmentations caused by hemosiderin deposition in the skin as well as post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Although skin hyperpigmentation after sclerotherapy is a common over several months up to years lasting side-effect with a strong aesthetic impact, scanty data exist about treatment options. Quality-Switched (QS) lasers are efficient in the removal of exogenous and endogenous pigments, such as tattoos as well as epidermal and dermal melanin deposits. The laser light is absorbed by pigment particles, leading to a fragmentation of these particles by a photothermal and photoacoustic effect. Smaller particles can be then phagocyted by macrophages, and transported via the lymphatic system into the lymph nodes. Furthermore, the positive effect of QS lasers in the management of cutaneous siderosis in stasis dermatitis and after sclerotherapy has been described in several cases. Triple cream including hydroquinone, tretinoin and a topical corticosteroid (eg dexamethasone), is the first line therapy in the treatment of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the efficiency of two well-known depigmentation methods (QS laser and triple cream) for treatment of post sclerotherapy hyperpigmentation, compared with a control group performing no treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Trifarotene 50 microgram per gram (mcg/g) cream compared to its vehicle cream in the treatment of moderate acne vulgaris with risk of acne-induced post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) after 24 weeks of treatment in facial acne participants
The microneedle is a minimally invasive technique, consists of the application of a roller surrounded by small and thin needles that pierce the skin and generate a mechanical stimulus with no ablative effect on the skin. The study aims to test the hypothesis that the technique of microneedle in the treatment of tissue flaccidity and hyperchromia of female external genitalia is safe and with a more effective result in clinical improvement through genital rejuvenation and unification of skin tone when compared to non-ablative radiofrequency technique.
Melasma is a common, acquired, esthetically disfiguring hypermelanosis of the face. Melasma is considered a disappointing challenge when treatment options are addressed. Diverse treatment modalities such as retinoic acid, hypo-pigmenting agents like hydroquinone, azelaic acid, and kojic acid, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and lasers have been tried for the treatment of melasma. There is no universally proven therapy that induces and maintains remission of the condition. Q-switched: Nd YAG laser toning and platelet rich plasma (PRP) are promising treatments for melasma.The aim of this work is evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined PRP and Q-switched: NdYAG laser in the treatment of melasma using clinical assessment, in addition to assessment of Melanin Index and Erythema Index.
This pilot study will expand knowledge and application needling using the Straberi device for the improvement of Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) caused by acne.
Subjects were randomly assigned to groups for treatment with either an EGF-containing ointment (the study group) or the vehicle alone (petrolatum; the control group). The EGF ointment included recombinant human EGF (1 μg/g). Random numbers used for assignment to groups were provided by the randomization function of SAS. The subjects received one session of laser treatment with a Q-switched (QS) 532-nm Nd:yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser of their solar lentigines after enrollment. . The end point of laser treatment for lentigines was immediate whitening. The subjects then applied the EGF ointment or vehicle twice daily (morning and evening) to the lesion for 4 weeks after laser treatment.
