Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study examines the efficacy of a non-thermal, atmospheric plasma device in the treatment of skin disorders

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study uses non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma to treat target conditions. The patients are monitored at set intervals for efficacy and adverse effects using investigator's assessment and imaging techniques

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Non-thermal atmospheric plasma treatment

Device treatment

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Non-thermal, atmospheric plasma to treat skin lesions and acne

Intervention Type DEVICE

Non-thermal, atmospheric plasma treatment of affected area or lesions using a nanosecond dielectric barrier discharge plasma device

Indirect non-thermal atmospheric plasma treatment

A compound of non-thermal atmospheric plasma and medium is used to treat the target by direct application or by on-site generation of the compound

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Indirect non-thermal, atmospheric plasma to treat hair loss and acne

Intervention Type DEVICE

A compound of non-thermal, atmospheric plasma and medium is delivered to or generated at the target area. Plasma is generated using either microsecond dielectric barrier discharge plasma device or PiezoBrush (a helium jet plasma). The medium is an aqueous alcohol solution
