Brief Summary:
This randomized, single-center, double-blinded, split-face, controlled clinical trial was conducted to investigate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of a post-procedure cream when used immediately after fractional ablative CO2 laser treatment and for 14 days post-procedure with three times daily application in healthy female subjects aged 35 to 65 with moderate to severe global facial overall photodamage (score of 4 to 9 out of the 10-point Modified Griffiths' scale). Furthermore, this clinical trial compared the active post-procedure cream to a comparator anhydrous formulation often paired with skin rejuvenation procedures. This is a cosmetic study with a FDA-regulated device.
A total of 22 healthy female subjects completed the study.
Detailed Description:
This randomized, single-center, double-blinded, split-face, controlled clinical trial was conducted to investigate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of a post-procedure cream when used immediately after fractional ablative CO2 laser treatment and for 14 days post-procedure with three times daily application in healthy female subjects aged 35 to 65 with moderate to severe global facial overall photodamage (score of 4 to 9 out of the 10-point Modified Griffiths' scale). The ability of the post-procedure cream to soothe skin and improve patient downtime post-procedure was investigated by evaluating tolerability parameters (erythema, edema, dryness, burning, itching, stinging) and pain over the course of the study. Furthermore, this clinical trial compared the active post-procedure cream to a comparator anhydrous formulation often paired with skin rejuvenation procedures.
A 14-day washout period was required of all subjects prior to CO2 laser treatment. Tolerability (investigator: erythema, edema, dryness; subject: burning, itching, stinging) and safety were assessed through grading at screening, pre-procedure, post-procedure, post-procedure/post-product application, and days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 post-procedure. Pain evaluations were completed by subjects using the 11-point Wong Baker FacesĀ® Pain Rating scale post-procedure, post-procedure/post-product application, and days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 post-procedure.
In addition, efficacy evaluation using the Modified Griffiths' scale was performed at screening, pre-procedure, and days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 post-procedure. Self-assessment questionnaires were completed by subjects post-procedure/post-product application and days 1, 3, and 14 post-procedure. Clinical photography was completed at all timepoints (screening to day 14 post-procedure).
A total of 22 subjects completed study participation.
