Inclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:<br><br> 1. Male or female 40-70 years old diagnosed with clinically evident fine (mild) to<br> moderate depth periorbital wrinkling<br><br> 2. Willingness and ability to comply with all required study activities and protocol<br> requirements.<br><br> 3. The subject is able to provide written informed consent and perform the study's<br> activities according to HIPAA guidelines and/or Israeli law, depending on each<br> specific study site.<br><br> Exclusion Criteria:<br><br> 1. The subject may not undergo treatment by the Tixel or comparator device according to<br> the device's contra-indications for use, as defined in the User Manual and in the<br> Instructions for Use and by any other labeling of the device.<br><br> 2. Female subjects who are pregnant, or planning to become pregnant, or have given<br> birth less than 3 months ago or are lactating.<br><br> 3. Subjects with significant exposure to critical amounts of ultraviolet light (Sun<br> tan).<br><br> 4. Subjects who have had the following treatments:<br><br> 1. a prior cosmetic procedure to improve facial rhytides (i.e., rhytidectomy,<br> periorbital or eyelid/eyebrow surgery, brow lift, CO2/Erbium/similar<br> laser/fractional resurfacing, radiofrequency treatment) within 12 months<br><br> 2. prior facial treatments with laser, surgical, chemical or light based facial<br> treatments within the previous 6 months, such as for botulinum toxin<br> injections, retinoid, microdermabrasion or prescription level glycolic acid<br> treatments<br><br> 3. Injectable filler in area to be treated within 9 months of investigation.<br><br> 4. permanent facial implant<br><br> 5. Any subject who have visible scars that may affect evaluation of response and/or<br> quality of photography.<br><br> 6. Subjects with any type of active cut, wound, inflammation, lesion (benign,<br> premalignant or malignant) or active bacterial, viral, fungal, or herpetic infection<br> on the skin on the designated treatment sites or in close proximity to it.<br><br> 7. Existing or history of the following (when discussing skin conditions, refers only<br> to the periorbital sites):<br><br> 1. skin malignancy, or any diagnosis of suspected malignancy<br><br> 2. Collagen or vascular or bleeding disease<br><br> 3. Immunosuppression or autoimmune disease<br><br> 4. Erythema with or without blistering<br><br> 5. History of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.<br><br> 6. Active Acne Vulgaris, Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1), or any existing skin<br> condition/disease that in the investigator's opinion would interfere with the<br> evaluation of the safety of the study treatment.<br><br> 7. Any skin pathology which can induce bullous lesions, urticaria, or demonstrate<br> a Koebner phenomenon (psoriasis, lichen planus, etc.).<br><br> 8. Any disease that inhibits pain sensation<br><br> 9. History of keloid formation, or hypertrophic scarring<br><br> 10. Conditions affecting healing rate (i.e. diabetes mellitus I or II, vascular<br> condition, etc.)<br><br> 11. neuromuscular disorders<br><br> 8. Subjects who have used, within 30 days, any medication that can cause dermal<br> hypersensitivity or affect skin characteristics (i.e. topically applied Retinoids,<br> Hydroquinone, Chemical peel of any strength: glycolic acid, lactic acid, salicylic<br> acid)<br><br> 9. Subjects who have used, systemic treatment which may induce dyspigmentation, such as<br> amiodarone, clofazinmine, minocycline or chloroquine.<br><br> 10. Subjects currently taking or have taken an oral retinoid in the past six months<br> (risk of scarring with therapy); Subjects currently taking long-term oral steroid<br> treatment (causing fragility of the skin, risk of hematoma and bullae formation);<br> Subjects taking Isotretinoin (Accutane or Roaccutan) within past 12 months.<br><br> 11. Concurrent therapy that, in the principal investigator's opinion, would interfere<br> with the evaluation of the safety or efficacy of the study treatment.<br><br> 12. Subjects who anticipate the need for surgery or overnight hospitalization during the<br> study.<br><br> 13. Enrollment in any active study involving the use of investigational devices or<br> drugs.<br><br> 14. Any other cause per the principal investigator's discretion.
