About this study

Official title: Assessing the Efficacy and Safety of the AcusMu Microneedle Patch in Treating Periorbital Wrinkles and Skin Diseases

The core objective of this study is to validate the safe and efficacious application of the AcusMu microneedle patch (FMD WK) to enhance the appearance of periorbital wrinkle

Read the detailed description

This clinical study is a randomized, double-blind, split-face clinical trial investigating the efficacy of AcusMu (FMD WK) for the treatment of periorbital wrinkles. Participants will attend a study center for a two-week period and undergo a two-week post-treatment follow-up after their final treatment session. Each day, they will apply one of two test products: (A) micro-needle patches containing active anti-wrinkle ingredients and (B) placebo patches beneath their eyes. The patches will be gently pressed onto the skin for 5-10 seconds and left in place for 2-8 hours, continuing this regimen for 14 days. Dermatologists will conduct evaluations at four time points during the study: on day 0, day 7, day 14, and day 28 (±2 days) from the commencement of the experiment. The evaluation process will include the calculation of a Fine Wrinkle Improvement Index specifically designed for assessing under-eye wrinkles to measure improvements. Non-invasive skin testing equipment will be employed to measure skin conditions and capture skin images for objective data analysis (Wrinkle Index). Additionally, self-assessment questionnaires will be administered to gather insights into participants' perceptions of the efficacy of micro-needle patches with active anti-wrinkle ingredients and placebo patches in improving periorbital wrinkles over the two-week duration.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Participants With Improvement in Periorbital Wrinkles From Baseline

    1. This is a half-face trial involving two weeks of treatment followed by a two-week post-treatment follow-up.
    2. Improvements in periorbital wrinkles will be assessed using the Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS), which ranges from 0 (no wrinkles) to 5 (severe wrinkles). A lower score indicates an improvement in wrinkle severity.
    3. Each participant's treated half-face serves as the unit of measure. Any decrease in the WSRS score from baseline is counted as an improvement.

    Measured: Over the course of study completion, an average duration of 4 weeks was observed.

  2. Number of Participants With Adverse Reactions

    Evaluate through skin response sheets: erythema, pain, swelling, etc.

    Measured: Over the course of study completion, an average duration of 4 weeks was observed.
