简要总结
The study will look to evaluate the tolerance of a light therapy-based acne mask device in participants who report having sensitive skin. All participants will receive a cleanser, a light therapy mask, and an extra activator for the light therapy mask.
详细描述
Acne and sensitive skin can be closely connected due to the reported involvement of an impaired skin barrier in both conditions, which can be further aggravated by potentially irritating topical treatments.
A patient's sensitive skin may be caused by the skincare products that they are using, the amount that they are applying (over-usage), or the concomitant effect of the different products being used, as well as by underlying medical conditions. While sensitive skin can be self-perceived and sometimes clinically apparent, as there is no agreed upon medical definition of 'sensitive skin', it is a 'diagnosis' primarily made by the patient's perception. The high incidence of this problem and potential for further irritation due to current topical treatments has left many patients in need of a sensitive skin solution for their acne.
Current at-home topical treatments for mild to moderate acne include Over-the-Counter (OTC) options, primarily with either benzoyl peroxide, or salicylic acid, as well as prescription options including retinoid-based products, however the cutaneous irritation potential of topical acne active ingredients has been reported in the literature, which is not desirable in particular for patients with sensitive skin.
Research has shown the benefits of red and blue light therapy in the treatment of mild to moderate acne, with blue light reported to target acne-causing bacteria and red light demonstrating anti-inflammatory activity. Previous studies with these types of modalities have shown high tolerance and efficacy. This study will look to evaluate the tolerance of a light therapy-based medical device in patients with self-reported sensitive skin.

研究组 & 干预措施
Acne Mask
The light therapy acne mask is applied to the face once in the evening for a duration of 10 minutes. The cleanser is used twice daily, once in the morning and once in the evening.
干预措施: Acne Mask (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Erythema
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Erythema (assessing skin redness), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3 where 0 = no redness, 1 = mild redness, 2 = moderate redness, and 3 = severe redness.
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Dryness/Scaling
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Dryness/Scaling (assessing skin dryness), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3, where 0 = no dryness, 1 = mild dryness, 2 = moderate dryness, and 3 = severe dryness.
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Tightness/Dry Feeling
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Tightness/Dry Feeling (assessing skin tightness/dry feeling), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3 where 0 = no tightness/dry feeling, 1 = mild tightness/dry feeling, 2 = moderate tightness/dry feeling, and 3 = severe tightness/dry feeling.
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Edema
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Edema (assessing skin edema/swelling), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3 where 0 = no edema, 1 = mild edema, 2 = moderate edema, and 3 = severe edema.
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Burning/Stinging
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Burning/Stinging (assessing skin burning/stinging), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3 where 0 = no burning/stinging, 1 = mild burning/stinging, 2 = moderate burning/stinging, and 3 = severe burning/stinging.
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Itching
时间窗: Baseline to Day 28
Cutaneous Tolerance Scores: Itching (assessing skin itching), from Baseline to Day 28. Scale range is 0-3 where 0 = no itching, 1 = mild itching, 2 = moderate itching, and 3 = severe itching.
