An interventional study of Genius and eC02 in Abdominoplasty, sponsored by LUTRONIC Corporation. Status unknown at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-12-20.
Sponsored by LUTRONIC Corporation (part of Cynosure Lutronic, Inc.) · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
Enrollment of up to 25 subjects; subjects enrolled may be greater than subjects receiving test spot exposure visits. No pre-treatment medication prior to test spot exposure. Up to 6 tattoo points will be applied to each side of the abdomen immediately before or after test spot exposures to map and locate exposed spots on the excised pannis. Tattoos in the area to be resected will be placed to outline the test spot exposure areas. Photographs of exposed sites may be taken at investigator's discretion.
Enrolled subjects who qualify will be assigned to one of four groups depending on the time of their screening appointment and scheduled abdominoplasty. Test spot exposures will take place prior to abdominoplasty resections at the following possible time points (by group):
Subjects receive test spot exposures at sites on the abdomen that will be resected during abdominoplasty. The area of the test spots will be approximately 2 x 2 cm2 but may be appropriately adjusted for fit within the resected tissue area. Subject pain during exposure will be monitored and recorded using a 0-10 Numeric Rating Scale.
Activities related to the abdominoplasty procedure are considered outside the scope of this study and will not be recorded or reported on during this study. The subject will be exited from the study prior to abdominoplasty procedures after all study related procedures with the exception of tissue preparation of excised tissue are complete. Tissue preparation of excised tissue will be completed after the subject has been exited from the study.

Subjects of must have a negative urine pregnancy test result and must not be lactating at the Screening Visit and be willing and able to use an acceptable method of (e.g. barrier methods used with a spermicidal agent, hormonal methods, IUD, surgical sterilization, abstinence) during the study. Women will not be considered of childbearing potential if one of the following conditions is documented on the medical history:
Exclusion Criteria:
History or current use of the following medications:
Psychiatric drugs that in the investigators opinion would impair the subject from understanding the protocol requirements or understanding and signing the informed consent.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Childbearing potential
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

The Infini Radiofrequency System (K121481) is the predicate device. It is a minimally invasive radiofrequency device that employs a bipolar microneedle electrode system indicated for use in dermatologic and general surgical procedures for electrocoagulation and hemostasis, and the percutaneous treatment of facial wrinkles. The Genius system is substantially equivalent to the Infini device with a digitally controlled direct drive mechanism for needle insertion and an improved needle design for easier needle insertion. The active tip of the Genius system is the substantially equivalent to the Infini device. The handpiece of the Genius system has also been redesigned to be lighter and more ergonomic.
The eCO2 Laser System (K091115) is indicated for use in dermatological procedures requiring ablation (removal), resurfacing and coagulation of soft tissue. Additionally, the 120 micron and 300 micron spot sizes are used in the treatment of wrinkles; rhytides, furrows, fine lines, textural irregularities, pigmented lesions and vascular dyschromia. The fractional 90 degree BellaV handpiece is intended to provide fractional CO2 treatment of skin and is not yet cleared.
The PICOPLUS Laser System (K173700) is indicated for use in surgical and aesthetic applications in the medical specialties of dermatology and general and plastic surgery as follows:
The LaseMD Laser System (K171009) is a 1927 factional thulium laser indicated for use in dermatological procedures requiring the coagulation of soft tissue, treatment of actinic keratosis, and treatment of benign pigmented lesions such as, but not limited to lentigos (age spots), solar lentigos (sun spots) and ephiledes (freckles). The cleared LaseMD system is a 5W system.
There are two new versions of the LaseMD system to be used in this study that are uncleared and investigational use only. The only change from the cleared system to the one of the LaseMD systems to be used in this study is that the watts have been increased to 20W and a new tip configuration with a larger 250+ um spot size. The other LaseMD system to be used in this study is the LaseMD FLEX. It also has 20W with larger spot size, a modified flat-top beam profile (as opposed to a Gaussian beam profile) and a faster scan rate. All other technical specifications remain the same as the cleared device.
Primary Outcome
Demonstrate that complete re-epithelialization occurs at the treatment sites within two weeks post treatment.
Time frame: 14 days
Secondary Outcome
Demonstrate vacuolization and coagulation in the skin immediate post treatment.
Time frame: 2 hours
