November 7, 2023 updated by: Candela Corporation

Evaluation of the PicoWay™ Laser System With 730nm and Resolve™ Fusion Handpieces for Treatment of Benign Pigmented Lesions and Wrinkles

Evaluation of the PicoWay™ Laser System With 730nm and Resolve™ Fusion Handpieces for Treatment of Benign Pigmented Lesions and Wrinkles.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Subjects will receive up to 4 study treatments with the PicoWay™ 730 nm laser wavelength, PicoWay™1064nm fractional handpiece and/or PicoWay™ 1064nm fractional handpiece for treatment of benign pigmented lesions or wrinkles. Subjects will return for three follow-up visit evaluations 1-month, 2-months and 3-months post final study treatment. Primary efficacy assessed by masked photographic evaluation. Optional biopsy collection for histological analysis of laser tissue effects.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Wrinkles From Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-study Treatment Assessed by Blinded Photographic Evaluation Using 9-Point Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale
Time Frame: Baseline to 12-week follow-Up Visit

9-Point Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale (FWS)

1=Fine Wrinkles to 9=Deep Wrinkles 1-3 Mild (fine textural changes with subtly accentuated skin lines) 4-6 Moderate (distinct papular elastosis [individual papules with yellow translucency under direct lighting] and dyschromia) 7-9 Severe (multipapular and confluent elastosis [thickened yellow and pallid] approaching or consistent with cutis rhomboidalis)

Baseline to 12-week follow-Up Visit
Change in Benign Pigmented Lesions From Baseline to 12 Weeks Post-study Treatment in Pigment Clearance Score (PCS) as Determined by Blinded Evaluators From Clinical Photography
Time Frame: Baseline to 12-week follow-Up Visit

5-Point Pigment Clearance Score (Score, Clearance %, Description)

  1. = 0-24% = Poor Response
  2. = 25-49% = Fair Response
  3. = 50-74% = Good Response
  4. = 75-94% = Excellent Response
  5. = >95% = CompleteResponse
Baseline to 12-week follow-Up Visit

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Subject Satisfaction Mean of Scores From 2nd Treatment Visit to Last Visit by Treatment Group Using a 5-Point Likert-type Rating Scale
Time Frame: Pre-Treatment 2 at Week 6, Pre-Treatment 3 at Week 12, Pre-Treatment 4 at Week 18, 1 Month Follow-Up at Week 22, 2 Month Follow-Up at Week 26, and 3 Month Follow-Up at Week 30
During the 2nd Treatment Visit and all subsequent study visits (treatment and follow-up), Subject Satisfaction Surveys were obtained from all subjects. The scale used to evaluate subject satisfaction is a Likert-type rating Scale and follows -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 for responses of Extremely Dissatisfied, Somewhat Dissatisfied, Neither Satisfied nor Dissatisfied, Somewhat Satisfied and Extremely Satisfied respectfully. The scores are stratified according to treatment group.
Pre-Treatment 2 at Week 6, Pre-Treatment 3 at Week 12, Pre-Treatment 4 at Week 18, 1 Month Follow-Up at Week 22, 2 Month Follow-Up at Week 26, and 3 Month Follow-Up at Week 30
