Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety for Frequent Use Conditions of Hair Removal Device (NCT NCT01348789)

NCT ID: NCT01348789

Last Updated: 2013-02-18

Results Overview

The immediate skin reaction and long-term side and adverse effects were evaluated on site by a dermatologist. This includes the following clinical outcomes: * Presence of transient (disappearing \< 24 hours) or prolonged erythema * Presence of transient (disappearing \< 24 hours) or prolonged edema * Self-limited bleeding from mechanical shaving * Blister formation * Ulcer formation * Pigment changes (hypo/hyper) * Textural changes * Scarring * Infection * Pruritis * Post inflammation reactions * Allergic reaction The safety of the device will be confirmed if no device related serious adverse event will occur.
