研究目的
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a specific treatment protocol using a new and improved non-ablative fractional high-power 1064-nm Q-switched Nd:YAG laser for face and neck rejuvenation.
研究成果
The results of this study conclude that in selected, well-advised patients with realistic expectations, the evaluated procedure using the Clear Lift? laser is safe and effective for the rejuvenation of the face and neck. The general improvement percentages on a GAIS percentage scale are around 30% to 40%, with no need for recovery time, minimal adverse effects, and an immediate return to normal daily life and work activities.
研究不足
The current study has some limitations that should be taken into account when interpreting its results. As an initial pilot study, has inherent limitations that include a small sample size and lack of a control group.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Sixteen women between the ages of 30 and 60 were selected for skin rejuvenation. The laser was programmed to emit an energy of 2,400 mJ/pulse, at a discharge frequency of 4 Hz and a fixed pulse time of 20 ns.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Patients were selected with light or moderate facial aging, or with neck flaccidity.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A high-power 1064-nm Q-switched Nd: YAG laser (Clear Lift?) was used, integrated into the Harmony XL-Pro platform (Alma Lasers, Caesarea, Israel).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Both groups (face and neck) were treated using the same procedure and settings, in three treatment sessions (two passes per session), spaced 2 weeks apart.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The efficacy was evaluated by the therapist (TS), the patient (PS), and two separate independent experts who were blind to the study (E1 and E2).
