A Study to Gain Information How Well Dexpanthenol Derma Cream Helps the Face Skin to Recover After Cosmetic Lasering

Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of the Product Bepantol® Cream After the Dermatological Procedure in the Face.

In this study, researchers want to learn more about the effect of dexpanthenol cream on skin recovery and reduction of skin rash after a dermatological procedure (ablative laser) on the face for treatment of fine wrinkles, scars and open pores in adult women.

After the dermatological procedure, participants will return within 3 weeks for 4 visits to the study center to investigate the skin conditions such as redness, irritation, softness and possible side effects. In addition, study participants will be asked about their general acceptance of dexpanthenol cream.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Skin barrier integrity by TEWL probe	The transepidermal water loss (TEWL) is measured in g m2 h-1 with a Tewameter TM300.	Up to 23 days
Dermic temperature by thermographic camera (FLIR)		Up to 23 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Skin properties of the participants	Investigators assess various skin properties of the participants with a questionnaire (each scored from 1 to 5), resulting in an overall efficacy score from 8 to 55 (a higher score represents higher efficacy).	Up to 23 days
Treatment satisfaction	Participants assess their treatment satisfaction with a questionnaire consisting of 23 items (each item is scored from 1-5) resulting in a score range of 23 to 115 (a higher score represents better treatment satisfaction).	Up to 23 days
Product evaluation	Participants assess their sensorial perception of different product attributes (e.g. smell, absorption) with a questionnaire consisting of 7 items (each item is scored from 1-5) resulting in a score range from 7 to 35 (a higher score represents higher product satisfaction).	Up to 23 days
Number of adverse events by dermatological evaluation		Up to 23 days
Number of adverse events by ophthalmologic valuation		Up to 23 days
Severity of adverse events by dermatological evaluation		Up to 23 days
