5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Primary study objective is to evaluate the optimization of Nano-Pulse Stimulation (NPS) energy settings for lesion clearance of Sebaceous Hyperplasia (SH) lesions from facial areas of healthy adult subjects.
Detailed Description
Evaluate lesion clearance of treated facial Sebaceous Hyperplasia lesions using multiple sized treatment tips with microneedles.
Evaluate lesion clearance of the treated Sebaceous Hyperplasia lesions using multiple energy settings levels at various time points.
Evaluate skin effects and adverse event rate.
