The current post-market clinical investigation has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CELLBOOSTER® Lift, a HA-based product marketed by SUISSELLE SA. For this purpose, healthy subjects with signs of skin aging with mild to moderate wrinkles, skin laxity, dry and dull skin on the face, received a 3-session treatment and were followed-up over a 4-month period after the initial injection. Several objective measurements of skin quality were performed with different parameters: skin elasticity, density, dryness, microcirculation, wrinkles, color/homogeneity. Clinical improvement was also evaluated, as well as subject and investigator satisfactions. The safety of the injections was also followed with injection site reactions and adverse events collection.
The goal of the Potenza device used in this study is to collect clinical data for dermatologic conditions in which electrocoagulation and hemostasis is a viable mechanism for means of improvement.
The primary objective of this pilot study is exploratory investigation evaluating the Potenza microneedle fractional radiofrequency (RF) device and may be used in combination with the Icon intense pulsed light (IPL) device.
1. Striae distensae (SD), also known as stretch marks, are common, permanent dermal lesions that can be symptomatic and are considered aesthetically undesirable; thus, they pose a significant psychosocial and therapeutic challenge. SD arise in areas of dermal stretching and most commonly occur on the abdomen, breasts, buttocks, and thighs. Most literature has described SD during pregnancy(striae gravidarum) and puberty, with reported prevalences varying from 11% to 88%. Hormonal influences, reduced genetic expression of fibronectin, collagen, and elastin, and mechanical stretching of the skin have all been postulated to contribute to SD formation. In the acute phase, SD appear as red/violaceous lesions (striae rubrae; SR) that can be raised and symptomatic. The chronic form (striae albae; SA) exists as hypopigmented dermal depressions. 2. Polylevolactic Acid(PLLA) is at present one of the most promising biodegradable polymers (biopolymers) and has been the subject of abundant literature over the last decade. PLLA can be processed with a large number of techniques and is commercially available (large-scale production) in a wide range of grades. 3. Previous studies have found that 1565-nm laser can promote the synthesis of types I, III, and VII collagen and elastin, as well as the remodeling of dermal collagen. According to previous studies, dermal collagen deposition and remodeling may be related to the mechanism by which 1565-nm laser improves SD.
Stretch marks or striae are common skin condition occurring in both genders, but they are more prevalent among women. These are linear dermal scars that are accompanied by epidermal atrophy. They usually occur frequently in numerous physiological and pathological conditions, such as adolescent growth, pregnancy, obesity, Cushing disease, Marfan syndrome, and long-term systemic or topical steroid use. Decreased expression of collagen and fibronectin genes has also been associated with striae. The pro-yellow laser systems can be used in a wide range of indications such as facial erythema, facial telangiectasia, port wine stain nevus, rosacea, poikilo derma civatte, and Becker's nevus Some of these indications are clinical lesions in the vascular pattern; some are related to the factors that trigger vascularity, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in etiopathogenesis
The study aims to explore the potential of combination therapy with fractional radiofrequency and topical tretinoin for treatment and overall improvement of striae albae. We also aim to assess subject satisfaction, local skin responses and adverse effects/reactions in relation to the treatments, alone and in combination.
This is a prospective, single centre, evaluator-blind study of the performance of fractional radiofrequency (RF) for the treatment and revision of stretch marks. The study will evaluate the progress of 15 subjects requesting treatment of stretch marks. The study will involve four treatments on both sides of the face with 4 week intervals between each treatment. Subjects will be followed at 12 and 16 weeks after their last treatment. Analysis will be performed on all subjects who receive at least one treatment.
Subjects are to be enrolled in this clinical study if they are 18 - 55 years old. Up to 120 subjects will be enrolled at multiple study centers. Subjects may receive up to 5 treatments for a wide array of dermatologic conditions in which electrocoagulation and hemostasis is a viable mechanism for means of improvement.
This study determined the efficacy of ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser combined with autologous platelet-rich plasma versus ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser with placebo in the treatment of striae gravidarum of postpartum Filipino women.
