Primary | Percentage of photos accurately identified as post-treatment photo vs. baseline by a blind investigator from 0-100% | Success criteria: 80% accuracy in identifying the baseline photo from post-treatment photos. | 28 days | |
Secondary | Change in Modified Melasma Area and Severity Index (mMASI) scale measured by investigator (range 0-24), a lower score indicating clearer skin. | The Modified Melasma Area and Severity Index scale will be utilized to grade melasma severity. Success criteria: improvement by 1 point, ie. at least 1 point lower than baseline. | 28 days | |
Secondary | Percentage of subjects with an increase in satisfaction level assessed from Melasma Quality of Life questionnaire (MELQoL) after treatment compared to baseline | MELQoL is a questionnaire on a scale of 0 to 7 on how the patients feel about skin appearance, skin condition, embarrassment about skin condition, etc. | 28 days | |
Secondary | Statistical improvement of investigator Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) | Success criteria: On a scale of -1 (skin got worse) to 3 (skin very much improved), incidence of subject improvement was statistically significant. | 28 days |
