Study summary

Skin aging is a multifactorial process involving the 3 layers of the skin: Epidermis, dermis and hypodermis. Skin aging process involves among others: skin roughness (epidermis), skin dyschromia (epidermis, dermis), wrinkles and elastosis - skin texture changes due to collagen modification, skin laxity and cellulite (dermis and hypodermis).

EndyMion has developed the Imagine™ system - Computerized Radiofrequency System for Skin Tightening. By using a multielectrodes treatment tip an exact computerized thermal pattern can be produced allowing to selectively heating one or more of the target tissues (epidermis, dermis and hypodermis). In the skin tightening module the dermis and hypodermis would be targeted, creating enough thermal effect to induce collagen remodeling with no ablative thermal damage in the epidermis or dermis. This post marketing study is intended for evaluation of safety and efficacy of the Imagine™ system.

Interventions

  • DeviceEndymion Imagine™ System for Skin Tightening

    Based on patient skin type and area of treatment the physician will choose the following parameters (some parameters are fixed): * Pulse energy (J); * RF frequency (1MHz); * Pulse duration (30 sec); * Treatment hand piece (skin tightening);

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. The safety of using the Imagine™ System for skin tightening will be established by physician's assessment/observation of adverse events (signs of pain, skin texture alterations or burn).

    Time frame: 3 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Efficacy endpoint of using the Imagine™ System for skin tightening will be established by level of skin tightness improvement.

    Time frame: 3 months
