About this study

Official title: A Non-Interventional, Post-Market-Clinical-Follow up (PMCF), Prospective, Open-Label, Single-Center Observational Study Evaluating Croma Revitalis in Correction of Fine Lines

This study will serve to collect and analyze additional data on the use of the device croma revitalis for treatment of fine lines on the face including LCL and PR in the routine practice and as "real-world" performance.

Read the detailed description

This study is designed to observe the effects of croma revitalis, a medical device used to improve fine lines and skin quality, under real-life conditions. It is a prospective, open-label, non-comparative study, meaning all participants will receive the treatment, and both doctors and participants know what is being administered. This setup allows for efficient collection of clinical data while reflecting typical use in aesthetic practice. The study aims to evaluate improvements in skin concerns such as loss of volume, moisture, tone, and elasticity. The main way effectiveness will be measured is through the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). This is a widely accepted 5-point scale used by doctors to assess visible improvements after treatment. The focus will be on improvements in areas such as lateral canthal lines (LCL), commonly known as "crow's feet", and perioral rhytides (PR), often referred to as "smile lines" or "smoker's lines." The primary evaluation point is Week 8, which is a typical follow-up period after a full treatment cycle consisting of three applications of the product. Participants will continue to be monitored until Week 24. The study plans to enroll approximately 70 participants, with the goal of collecting complete Week 8 data from at least 55 individuals.

What is being measured

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

  1. Responder status at Week 8 after initial treatment.

    Visible aesthetic changes at Week 8 after initial treatment in the treated fine lines of at least one treatment area (LCL and/or PR), compared to baseline, as assessed by the physician using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). The GAIS is a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 5 (worse), where lower scores indicate greater aesthetic improvement.

    Measured: 8 weeks after initial treatment

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Responder Status Based on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) - Physician Assessment

    Visible aesthetic changes at Weeks 3, 6, 12, and 24 after initial treatment compared to baseline, as assessed by the physician using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS).

    The GAIS is a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 5 (worse), where lower scores indicate greater aesthetic improvement. Responders are defined as participants with a GAIS score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved).

    Measured: Weeks 3, 6, 12, and 24 after initial treatment

  2. Responder Status Based on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) - Independent Evaluator Panel

    Visible aesthetic changes at Weeks 3, 6, 12, and 24 after initial treatment compared to baseline, as assessed by an independent evaluating panel using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS).

    The GAIS is a 5-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 5 (worse), where lower scores indicate greater aesthetic improvement. Responders are defined as participants with a GAIS score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved).

    Measured: Weeks 3, 6, 12, and 24 after initial treatment

  3. Change in Skin Hydration from Baseline Measured by Corneometer

    Change in skin hydration compared to baseline measured using a Corneometer device, which quantifies skin hydration on the treated area(s). Higher values indicate greater skin hydration.

    Measured: Week 3, 6, 8, 12, and 24

  4. Change in Skin Tone from Baseline Measured by Cutometer

    Change in skin tone compared to baseline measured on the treated area(s) using the Cutometer device.

    Measured: Week 3, 6, 8, 12, and 24

  5. Change in Skin Elasticity from Baseline Measured by Cutometer

    Change in skin elasticity compared to baseline measured using a Cutometer device, which assesses the mechanical properties of the skin through suction-based deformation parameters.

    Higher values indicate improved skin elasticity.

    Measured: Week 3, 6, 8, 12, and 24

  6. Participant Satisfaction with Treatment

    Participant-reported satisfaction with treatment at each specified visit using a 5-point scale: "Very unsatisfied," "Unsatisfied," "Neither unsatisfied nor satisfied," "Satisfied," or "Very satisfied."

    Measured: Week 8, 12, and 24

  7. Aesthetic change based on the physician's live assessment

    A live-assessment of the treated areas will be performed and the treated areas will be compared to the participant's photographs obtained at the baseline visit. The presence of the aesthetic change will be recorded as either "Yes" or "No".

    Measured: Week 8, 12 an 24

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lateral Canthal Lines (LCL) and Perioral Rhytids, run by Croma-Pharma GmbH at 1 site in Austria.

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 6 inclusion and 25 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Austria. 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?

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?

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?

Responder status at Week 8 after initial treatment. (time frame: 8 weeks after initial treatment). 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 28 Jul 2026.
