About this study
Official title: NIRA™ Laser M2.1 and Topical Treatment of Full-Face Wrinkles: A CLINICAL TRIAL
This clinical trial evaluated the safety and effectiveness of the NIRA Laser M2.1, with or without a topical treatment, for the treatment of full-face wrinkles in adults. Participants were assigned to one of two treatment arms: laser-only treatment or laser treatment followed by topical treatment. Wrinkle improvement was assessed using standardized facial photographs reviewed by blinded evaluators, and participant satisfaction and safety observations were also assessed.
Read the detailed description
This was a non-randomized, open-label, two-arm clinical study evaluating the NIRA Laser M2.1, with or without topical treatment, for treatment of full-face wrinkles in adults.
Participants were assigned to one of two study arms. Participants in Arm 1 received laser-only treatment. Participants in Arm 2 received laser treatment followed by topical treatment.
The study evaluated within-participant change from baseline in facial wrinkles using standardized before-and-after facial photographs reviewed by three blinded evaluators. Safety observations, including adverse events, participant satisfaction, and other facial observations were also assessed.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
NIRA Laser M2.1Device
Hand-held OTC 1450nm diode laser device for full-face wrinkle treatment. Subjects treated themselves privately in their own homes, daily, per the Instructions for Use.
TopicalOther
Topical skincare formulation designed for twice daily, full-face application. Used in Arm 2 only in addition to the NIRA Laser M2.1.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| NIRA Laser M2.1 | Experimental | Arm 1: Laser only treatment for full face wrinkles. Subjects treated themselves privately in their own homes, daily. Continuous treatment was planned for the first 16 weeks. Endpoint visual assessments were taken at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 28 weeks. The total study participation time for each subject was approximately 28 weeks with visits at initiation plus at 4-week intervals (Visits 1 to 8). Receives: Device: NIRA Laser M2.1 |
| NIRA Laser M2.1 Followed by Topical Treatment | Other | Arm 2: Laser followed by topical treatment for full face wrinkles. Subjects treated themselves privately in their own homes, daily. Continuous treatment was planned for the first 16 weeks. Endpoint visual assessments were taken at 4, 8, 12, 16, and 28 weeks (Visits 1 to 5 and Visit 8). Visits 6 (20 weeks) and 7 (24 weeks) were not required for this arm. The total study participation time for each subject was approximately 28 weeks. This study will not disclose results of Arm 2 as the treatment in this arm includes a topical in addition to the laser device. Receives: Device: NIRA Laser M2.1; Other: Topical |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Full Face Wrinkle Effectiveness Primary Endpoint a)
Effectiveness will be determined in the per-protocol participant population by comparing within-participant change-from-baseline using the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale (1 to 9) for wrinkles. Primary endpoint assessment will be performed by three blinded evaluators from before and after treatment photographs (Visit 1 vs Visit 8). The independent evaluators will be dermatologists or professional dermatologist nurse practitioner, or equivalent, with understanding of the medical treatment of facial wrinkles. They will be blinded and will use standardized photographs and the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale for their clinical assessment. For each individual participant, the change will be determined by the median scoring by 3 blinded evaluators.
Measured: 28 weeks
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Full Face Wrinkle Safety Primary Endpoint b)
Safety assessed in the total enrolled participant population by evaluating types (severity, duration and resolution) and rates of adverse events, and their possible relationship to the treatment.
Measured: 28 Weeks
Secondary outcomes (4)
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Full-Face Wrinkle Subject Satisfaction Secondary Endpoint
The secondary endpoint will be participant satisfaction, as determined by a post-treatment questionnaire.
Measured: 16 weeks
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Change From Baseline in Infraorbital Dark Circle Severity
Infraorbital dark circle severity will be evaluated using standardized photographs and the validated 10-point Photonumeric Scale for Infraorbital Dark Circles (PSIDC). The PSIDC is graded from 0 to 9, with higher scores indicating greater infraorbital dark circle severity. Change from baseline to Visit 8 will be evaluated. A reduction in score compared with baseline indicates improvement.
Measured: 28 weeks
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Change From Baseline in Skin Elasticity
Skin elasticity of facial skin will be assessed at the center of the left cheek using the ElastiMeter and recorded in Newtons per meter (N/m). Change from baseline to the final visit will be evaluated. A positive change from baseline indicates increased skin elasticity.
Measured: 28 Weeks
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Change From Baseline in Skin Firmness
Skin firmness of facial skin will be assessed at the center of the left cheek using the Delfin Technologies SkinFibrometer and recorded in Newtons (N). Change from baseline to the final visit will be evaluated. A positive change from baseline indicates increased skin firmness.
Measured: 28 weeks

Primary outcome
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Full Face Wrinkle Effectiveness Primary Endpoint a)
Time frame: 28 weeks
Effectiveness will be determined in the per-protocol participant population by comparing within-participant change-from-baseline using the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale (1 to 9) for wrinkles. Primary endpoint assessment will be performed by three blinded evaluators from before and after treatment photographs (Visit 1 vs Visit 8). The independent evaluators will be dermatologists or professional dermatologist nurse practitioner, or equivalent, with understanding of the medical treatment of facial wrinkles. They will be blinded and will use standardized photographs and the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle Scale for their clinical assessment. For each individual participant, the change will be determined by the median scoring by 3 blinded evaluators.
ARM 1 and ARM 2: Full Face Wrinkle Safety Primary Endpoint b)
Time frame: 28 Weeks
Safety assessed in the total enrolled participant population by evaluating types (severity, duration and resolution) and rates of adverse events, and their possible relationship to the treatment.
4 secondary outcomes
