Pilot Study of Fractional Ablative Laser for Treating Skin Laxity and Tightening in Adults

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of a fractional ablative laser device for treating skin laxity and tightening. The study aims to assess how well this laser treatment works in improving skin appearance, particularly focusing on wrinkle reduction. This pilot evaluation is sponsored by Sciton and includes adults aged 18 to 85 years with visible skin laxity or scars. Participants will receive fractional ablative laser treatment targeted at areas with skin laxity. The study involves a single treatment arm where this device is applied to improve skin tightness. There are no placebo or comparison groups, and the treatment details focus on applying the laser to affected skin regions. During the study, participants will have digital images and measurements taken of the treated area to monitor changes over time. Researchers will track wrinkle improvement for up to six months after the final treatment. Participants must follow treatment and follow-up schedules, including post-treatment care instructions. The total study duration and additional monitoring details are not specified but include these outcome assessments and safety observations.
