简要总结
This study will evaluate the use of the Lutronic PicoPlus for treatment of dermatological conditions such as unwanted tattoos and benign pigmented lesions.
详细描述
This pilot clinical trial will evaluate the capability of the Lutronic PicoPlus technology to remove unwanted tattoos and benign pigmented lesions. This trial is designed as a multi-center exploratory, open-label clinical trial comparing each subject's condition before and after treatment. Subjects meeting all entrance criteria will be assigned to Group A for treatment of unwanted tattoos and Group B for treatment of unwanted benign pigmented lesions, melasma, or other skin conditions such as skin rejuvenation. Subjects in each treatment group will receive a series of treatments, e.g., 2-5, and will be asked to complete 1 and 3 month follow-up visit(s) following each treatment to assess treatment efficacy and safety. At investigators' discretion, additional follow-up visits, e.g., at 6 months following treatment, may take place to observe the time course of reactions after treatment and/or assess efficacy. Outcome measures include clinician grading and subject satisfaction post-treatment. Pre-treatment study photos will be obtained at baseline; post-treatment study photos will be obtained at each post-treatment follow-up visit.

结局指标
主要结局
Investigator's Global Assessment of Improvement
时间窗: Up to 6 Months following final study treatment
Overall aesthetic improvement based on completion of the Physician's Global Assessment of Improvement Scale. Physician evaluators will review study photos post-final treatment, and rate the degree of tattoo clearing or reduction in benign pigmentation observed in the subject's treated area using the following definitions: 3 = Very significant or complete clearing (75-100%) 2 = Significant clearing (50-74%) 1 = Moderate clearing (25-49%) 0 = Mild or no clearing (0-24%)
次要结局
- Subject's Global Assessment of Improvement(1 month, 3 Months, 6 Months (Group A Only) post final treatment)
- Subject Satisfaction(1 month, 3 Months, 6 Months (Group A Only) post final treatment)
