Skin LaxityPhase 2NCT07462533
Assess Efficacy of a Nanodiamond Periprocedural Skin Care Regimen for Ablative Resurfacing
A Phase 2 study testing Pavise Serum and Co2/Er:YAG in people with Skin Laxity, run by Goldman, Butterwick, Fitzpatrick and Groff.
Trial summary
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of Pavise Extracellular Matrix Restore (ECMR), compared with standard acute post-operative care, when used as the primary occlusive treatment immediately following ablative CO₂ and Er:YAG facial laser resurfacing to support wound healing.

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Study Evaluating the Efficacy of a Nanodiamond Periprocedural Skin Care Regimen for Ablative Resurfacing
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of Pavise Extracellular Matrix Restore (ECMR), compared with standard acute post-operative care, when used as the primary occlusive treatment immediately following ablative CO₂ and Er:YAG facial laser resurfacing to support wound healing.
Read the detailed description
8 patients total will receive an ablative CO₂ and Er:YAG facial laser resurfacing treatment to the face. Each will be assigned to either Group A Control or Group B Active and given a skincare regimen to follow post procedure. Patients will return for follow up visits at Day 1 post procedure, Day 4 post procedure, Day 7 post procedure, 14 days post procedure and 3 months post procedure for 2D photography and assessments.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Pavise Serum and Co2/Er:YAG in people with Skin Laxity, run by Goldman, Butterwick, Fitzpatrick and Groff.
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 16 inclusion and 15 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2026. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact West Dermatology Research Center (858-657-1004, research@clderm.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Investigator Evaluation of Erythema, Edema, Exudation and Crusting (time frame: Day of procedure, post day 1, post day 4, post day 7, post day 14). 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 10 Mar 2026.
