What is being measured

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

  1. Change in skin appearance

    Photos from all time points (baseline and follow-up visits) will be evaluated by the treating physician and 2 independent evaluators.

    Measured: 3 months, 6 month, 9 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Investigator assessment of the skin appearance

    Investigator assessment of the skin appearance improvement comparing pre and post treatment using 0 - 4 -points Likert scale: 4 = Significantly marked improvement; 3 = Marked improvement; 2 = Moderate improvement; 1 = Slight improvement ; 0 = No difference.

    Measured: 3 Month, 6 Months, 9 Months

  2. Optional: 3D Photographic analysis

    3D Photographic analysis will be conducted using QuantifiCare System

    Measured: 3 months, 6 month, 9 months

  3. Evaluate changes in skin appearance comparing photographs using Mechanical Turk (MTurk). The pictures will be sent through the system and evaluated by crowd workers.

    The pictures will be sent through the system and evaluated by crowd workers.

    Measured: 3 Months, 6 Months
