简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of intense focused ultrasound and carbon dioxide-fractionated laser for treatment of periorbital wrinkles.
详细描述
This is a prospective randomized comparison study comparing the efficacy of micro-focused ultrasound versus fractionated carbon dioxide laser for treatment of periorbital wrinkles. Subjects who meet inclusion and exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study. The treated sites are both lower eyelids and lateral orbits. Each side will be randomized to receive 1550nm-fractionated laser treatment on one side and the contralateral side will receive micro-focused ultrasound treatment every 6-8 weeks for a total of 2 treatments.

研究组 & 干预措施
Fractional photothermolysis
Fractional photothermolysis (FP) for treatment of photo- damaged skin is an FDA-approved method for treating facial rhytids. Fractionated treatment with 1550-nm laser is a safe, nonsurgical method for improvement of periorbital rhytides, photodamage, and scarring
干预措施: Laser treatment (Procedure)
High-intensity focused ultrasound
High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFUS) is an FDA-approved method for periorbital treatment and nonablative tissue tightening. Ultrasound waves induce a vibration in the tissue, generating heat and increasing the tissue temperature within a focal area. The tissue changes depend on amount of heat and exposure duration. These findings are similar to the thermally induced changes within the skin after CO2 laser fractional ablative treatments.

结局指标
主要结局
Quantitative eyelid laxity scale
时间窗: 3 months
Two non-treating dermatologists will independently blindly evaluate the photographs at baseline, 1 and 3 months after treatment; differences will be resolved via a forced agreement process.
Global Improvement Scale
时间窗: 3 months
Global improvement scale score, as a percent improvement from baseline to 1 and 3 months, respectively, after treatment. Two non-treating dermatologists will independently blindly evaluate the photographs at baseline, 1 and 3 months after treatment; differences will be resolved via a forced agreement process.
