Evaluation of the Efficacy and Tolerance of a Light Therapy Mask on Mild to Moderate Brown Spots and Moderate to Severe Facial Wrinkles

Completed · Not applicable · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Skin Aging

In brief

This research study will test how well a light therapy mask works for women with mild to moderate hyperpigmentation (brown spots) and moderate to severe facial wrinkles, as compared to a "sham" or inactive investigational light therapy mask. The study will also test if the light therapy mask causes any irritation. For the first 12 weeks of the study, participants will use the assigned mask, along with a provided cleanser and sunscreen. For the second 12 weeks of the study, participants will use just the cleanser and sunscreen.
