Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Split-face design. Subjects will be divided equally in 2 treatment groups (food supplement active or food supplement placebo). Group 1 will receive treatments A and B (food supplement active with cosmetic active on one volar forearm and one side of face and cosmetic placebo on the other volar forearm and side of face) and group 2 C and D (food supplement placebo with cosmetic active on one volar forearm and one side of face and cosmetic placebo on the other volar forearm and side of face). Treatments will be randomly and balanced assigned to left and right test area in each group.
