Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a single-site, non-randomized, non-controlled study at UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas in the Department of Plastic Surgery. The study is designed to follow up to 15 consenting subjects who may receive up to 2 BBL/MOXI/HALO treatments under an IRB approved protocol.

Full description

Subjects will receive 1-2 BBL/MOXI/HALO treatments. All 2nd treatments will be scheduled 4-8 weeks after the initial treatment to ensure the skin has enough time to recover. Overall assessments will be collected before the first treatment and at subsequent follow-up visits at 1 Month and 3 Months post final treatment. Identifiable full-face standard and close-up photography will be obtained and used to evaluate any changes. Subjects will also have photos obtained with the VISIA-CR Imaging System (Canfield Scientific, Parsippany, NJ). Quantitative analysis will be completed on the VISIA imaging system and be used to compare the effects of the treatments. Any improvements will be evaluated to pre-treatment assessments.
