Ablative 10600 nm Fractional Laser Therapy for the Treatment of Scars

Scars

Rationale: Scars can be highly disfiguring and may result in functional impairment and psychosocial problems. Recently, fractional laser therapy (FLT) has been introduced as a promising novel treatment modality for scars. Objectives: The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of 10600 nm FLT for the treatment of different types of scars. Study design: Prospective observer blinded randomised controlled split-lesion trial. Study population: Thirty consecutive patients, aged at least 18 years, with hypertrophic or atrophic scars who give written informed consent. Methods: Two similar test regions of the scar will be randomly allocated to either 3 sessions of FLT (UltraPulse Encore 10600 nm Total FX) with an interval of 4 weeks or no treatment. Main study parameters/endpoints: Blinded Physicians Global Assessment is the main outcome variable. Secondary variables are Patient's Global Assessment, blinded clinical assessment of the scar on a scale from 0-3 (erythema, pigmentation, texture, hypertrophy, atrophy, pliability), Patient and Observer Scar Scale (POSAS), objective colour measurements by reflectance spectroscopy (LAB) and chromameter (erythema index, melanin index). Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness: Subjects participating in the study will be requested to visit the SNIP (Amsterdam) 3 times for treatment and 2 times for follow-up. The time investment per visit will be 30 minutes for treatment sessions and 20 minutes for follow-up visits. FLT using a 10600 nm laser device is a minimally invasive laser procedure with FDA approval for both the device (Lumenis Encore 10600 nm) and the indication (scar). Local side effects are erythema (always; 1-2 weeks), oozing (often; 1-3 days), swelling (always, 1-4 days), blisters < 0.5cm (occasionally) and blisters > 0.5cm (very rare). No systemic side effects are known for this laser device. All outcome measures involve non-invasive procedures. The laser treatment (FLT) requires local anesthesia. The amount of topical anesthetic used for infiltration is low (approximately 5% of the maximum dose) which minimizes the risk for local or systemic side effects due to the anesthetic agent. All together the burden due to the study is moderate, side effects are generally local and mild. Systemic side effects are not reported with this treatment. There is an indirect benefit for the participating subject. In case of improvement of the treated test regions, this therapy can be directly utilized to treat the whole scar. Considering the relative lack of alternative treatment options in many of these scars, the balance between burden, possible side effects and prospect for improvement is very favorable.

Evaluation of the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Effect on Scar Formation by RXI-109...

CicatrixScar Prevention

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intradermal administration of RXI-109 at small surgical incisions in the abdominal skin that will later be removed during an elective abdominoplasty. The effect of RXI-109 versus placebo on scarring at these incision sites will be evaluated visually and histologically.

Microneedling Plus the Universal Peel For Acne Scarring

Acne Scarring

Acne is a prevalent disorder mostly witnessed in adolescents, but can be seen in adults. Early treatment is imperative to reduce acne scarring which can appear with atrophic lesions, and depending on the skin type, significant erythema (redness) or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. A multi-modality approach to treatment is necessary when dealing with the aforementioned types of lesions. Pharmacologic management is essential, but safe procedural therapies are also necessary specifically with darker skinned individuals. Percutaneous collagen induction therapy (PCIT) is a non-invasive treatment achieved by using a micro-needling device, which is safe and effective in causing "micro-wounds" into the dermis thereby initiating wound healing followed by collagen production. This is an ideal treatment for acne scarring, re-texturizing of the skin, and hyperpigmentation for all skin types . Currently there are very few studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of microneedling and chemical peels in skin types III-VI. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the combination of microneedling and chemical peel for the treatment of acne scars in skin types III-VI.
