Trial Outcomes & Findings for TriActive+ Radiofrequency (RF) for Non-Invasive Treatment of Wrinkles and Rhytides (NCT NCT01859611)

NCT ID: NCT01859611

Last Updated: 2015-04-07

Results Overview

At each of the specified time points, photographs of the treated areas will be taken. The photography angles will include a global frontal photo and the right and left sides of the face at 45° and/or 90°. In addition, close up photos will be taken of specific facial zones, e.g., the peri-orbital wrinkles. Each patient to be evaluated through the 9 grade Fitzpatrick Wrinkling Severity Scale. Wrinkling Score Degree of Elastosis Fine 1-3 Mild Fine to moderate 4-6 Moderate Fine to deep wrinkles 7-9 Severe

Measure
Radiofrequency
Radiofrequency (RF) treatment with the TriActive+ RF device on the peri-oral and/or peri-orbital areas of the face once a week for eight weeks. TriActive+ RF: Radio frequency handpiece uses a multi-polar technology with a particular electrical frequency of 1MHz. The handpiece has a special "skin contact identification" system which delivers energy only when electrodes are adherent to the skin surface in order to avoid the prickling sensation when the treatment starts.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 3 Month FU

Population: Number of participants with observed changes (grade of improvement ≥ 1) to the surface of the skin based on photographic analysis at 3 Month FU

At each of the specified time points, photographs of the treated areas will be taken. The photography angles will include a global frontal photo and the right and left sides of the face at 45° and/or 90°. In addition, close up photos will be taken of specific facial zones, e.g., the peri-orbital wrinkles. Each patient to be evaluated through the 9 grade Fitzpatrick Wrinkling Severity Scale.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Pre Treatment 5, 1 Week FU, 1 Month FU, 3 Month FU

At each of the specified time points, subjects will complete a Subject Evaluation Form assessing their opinion of improvement and overall satisfaction with treatment.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Subjects will be followed for the duration of the study, and expected average of 20 weeks

At every treatment and follow-up visit the treated areas will be examined to evaluate side effects and adverse reactions remaining from the previous treatment session or occurring since then.
