PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 Month Follow Up

Population: The subject was lost to follow up (not due to adverse events).

3 trained blinded evaluators were asked to pick the post treatment photo from pre and post treatment photograph sets.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 Month Follow Up

Population: Anything beyond the 3 month follow up was not required, and the subject chose not to come in.

3 trained blinded evaluators were asked to pick the post treatment photo from pre and post treatment photograph sets.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: up to 3 months post last treatment

Population: The biopsy portion of the study was optional, so there were only 5 subjects.

Hematoxylin and eosin (H\&E) staining was performed on all pre and post treatment biopsy samples and evaluated by a pathologist to determine if there was any change in the subjects' glands at baseline vs. post last treatment. Changes in glands are characterized by reduction in quantity and size, in addition to changes in shape.
