What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Photographic Evaluation

    Photos will be evaluated by the investigator comparing time baseline and 3 month photos using the global aesthetic improvement scale

    Measured: 3 months post last treatment

  2. Photographic Evaluation

    Photographs will be evaluated and compared by investigator for baseline and 3 month images using the Cervicomental Angle Scale

    Measured: 3 months post last treatment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of participants with adverse events

    Side effects and events will be recorded

    Measured: up to 3 months post last treatment

  2. Photographic Evaluation

    Photos will be evaluated by the investigator comparing time baseline and 1 week photos using the global aesthetic improvement scale

    Measured: 1 week post treatment

  3. Photographic Evaluation

    Photographs will be evaluated and compared by investigator for baseline and 1 week images using the Cervicomental Angle Scale

    Measured: 1 week post treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 1440 nm wavelength laser with handpiece (Cynosure) in people with Skin Tightening of the Mandibular and Sub-mandibular Areas, run by Cynosure, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Photographic Evaluation (time frame: 3 months post last treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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?
