Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Acne Treatment
Acne treatment using the M22-IPL acne filter
|
The M22 is an advanced computer-controlled light emission system that incorporates several different light modules. The IPL hand piece operates at a spectrum of 400-1200nm with 7 different filters that can be easily inserted to the hand piece to treat different conditions. The IPL hand piece also includes 2 different sapphire cooled light guides of 8x15mm and 15x35mm. The cut-off filter that will be used for this evaluation is the Acne Filter that cuts off all light with the wavelength of 400-600 and 800-1200nm. |
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
lesion count of acne vulgaris will be reduced by at least 50% for >75% of the study population.
Time Frame: week 6 (week 1 after the last treatment)
|
The numbers of lesions are counted on each side of the face according to lesion type
|
week 6 (week 1 after the last treatment)
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) Scale for Acne Vulgaris
Time Frame: following the treatments: at Baseline ,5 weeks and at follow up 6 and 10 weeks.
|
The investigator will be required to grade the acne severity using the IGA scale
|
following the treatments: at Baseline ,5 weeks and at follow up 6 and 10 weeks.
|
Subject Discomfort Evaluation
Time Frame: Following the treatments: Baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks
|
Subject assessment of pain and discomfort associated with treatments using a Pain Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), were 0 is "no pain" and 100 is "intolerable pain.
|
Following the treatments: Baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks
|
Long term side effect and adverse events
Time Frame: throughout the duration of the study (Baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks)
|
Any adverse events associated with various setting used during the treatment and follow-up period
|
throughout the duration of the study (Baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks)
|
Subject Downtime Evaluation
Time Frame: Following treatments baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks
|
The downtime will be defined as the period of time following the procedure during which the subject had edema and erythema and felt unable/unwilling to go out in public
|
Following treatments baseline,2,3,4,5 weeks
|
Subject Satisfaction
Time Frame: week 4 ,6 ,10
|
The assessment will be based on a 5-point Likert scale detailed in Table 5 where 0 represents dissatisfied and 4 represents very satisfied.
|
week 4 ,6 ,10
|
