Efficacy and Safety of Profile HaloTM Mixed Fractional Laser on Treating of Facial and Neck Photoaging.
A study testing Profile HaloTM Mixed Fractional Laser in people with Photoaging, run by xjpfW.
Trial summary
1. Fractional laser has become an important laser modality in management of a number of skin conditions and photoaging. Fractional photothermolysis is the fractional emission of light into microscopic treatment zones, creating small columns of injury to the skin in a pixilated fashion. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Profile HaloTM Dual-wavelength Fusion Fractional Laser on the Treatment of Facial and Neck Photoaging: a Self-controlled Trial.
- Fractional laser has become an important laser modality in management of a number of skin conditions and photoaging. Fractional photothermolysis is the fractional emission of light into microscopic treatment zones, creating small columns of injury to the skin in a pixilated fashion. Epidermal and dermal disruptions occur in these focal zones of thermal injury, stimulating dermal collagen production and elastic tissue formation. Fractional laser has been used successfully to treat photodamage and overall dyschromia in the Caucasian population. However, there is not much improvement in Asian population.
- Photoaging refers to the skin caused by intense and chronic exposure to sunlight. The visible effects of photoaging are fine wrinkles, mottling, pigmentation and roughness of the skin. These changes are usually associated with chronologic aging. However, photoaging is not a good indicator of chronologic age. It just makes a person look older than his or her chronologic age. Skin ageing may be divided into two processes: intrinsic ageing and extrinsic ageing (or photoageing). Both are accompanied by changes in the morphological and biomechanical properties of skin.
- Profile HaloTM dual-wavelength fusion fractional laser is the first hand tool in the world that integrates ablative and non-ablative fractional lasers. It includes a non-ablative fractional laser with a wavelength of 1470nm and an ablative fractional laser with a wavelength of 2940nm. A day after treatment, new epithelial tissue began to appear, and the necrotic epidermis formed microepidermal necrotic debris (MENDs). MENDs were surrounded by keratin 2-7 days after treatment, and collagen sequence in MTZs was changed 7 days later. The 2940 ablative fractional laser can be added with 20-100 micron lattice stripping, ensuring safety while enabling MENDs to be peeled off 2 days earlier and reducing the risk of side effects. This makes the laser safe and effective compared with the single fractional laser and reduces the downtime.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Profile HaloTM Mixed Fractional LaserRadiation
Profile HaloTM fractional laser is the world's first hand tool with nonablative and ablative fractional laser. It includes a nonablative fractional laser with a wavelength of 1470 nm and an ablative fractional laser with a wavelength of 2940 nm. It has a good therapeutic effect on skin aging.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |

| after treatment | Experimental | The patient with facial and neck photoaging received Profile HaloTM mixed fractional laser treatment Receives: Radiation: Profile HaloTM Mixed Fractional Laser |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
VISIA skin test
With fast capture times and lighting modes designed to enhance the visualization of skin features, VISIA®-CR (Canfield Scientific, Inc. USA) is the standard in repeatable clinical imaging. Visia CR imaging system can be used to assess the skin wrinkles, texture, pores and elasticity
Measured: change from week0 to week48
Secondary outcomes (2)
Neck (Fitzpatrick wrinkle grading)
Level 0: no wrinkles, no visible wrinkles and continuous skin lines; Level 0.5: very shallow wrinkles visible to the naked eye Level 1: fine wrinkles, slight depressions visible to naked eye Level 1.5: visible wrinkles and clear depressions with a depth of <0.01mm; Level 2: medium wrinkles. It can be clearly seen that the depth of wrinkles is 1-2mm.
Level 2.5: obvious visible wrinkles with a depth of 2-3mm; Level 3: deep wrinkles, visible deep marks, depth greater than > 3mm
Measured: week0,week48
Glogau Classification of Photoaging
I: Mild 28-35 years old No wrinkles Early Photoaging: mild pigment changes, no keratosis, minimal wrinkles, minimal or no makeup; II: Moderate 35-50 years old Wrinkles in motion Early to Moderate Photoaging: Early brown spots visible, keratosis palpable but not visible, parallel smile lines begin to appear, wears some foundation; III: Advanced 50-65 years old Wrinkles at rest Advanced Photoaging: Obvious discolorations, visible capillaries (telangiectasias), visible keratosis, wears heavier foundation always; IV: Severe 60-75 years old Only wrinkles Severe Photoaging: Yellow-gray skin color, prior skin malignancies, wrinkles throughout-no normal skin, cannot wear makeup because it cakes and cracks
Measured: change from week0 to week48

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Profile HaloTM Mixed Fractional Laser in people with Photoaging, run by xjpfW.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
VISIA skin test (time frame: change from week0 to week48). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 May 2019.
