Evaluatation of a Microcurrent + Cold Therapy Device

Resumen breve

The present study aims to assess use of a microcurrent and cryotherapy device on skin health over an 8-week period using an at-home device that provides 15-minutes of microcurrent + cold therapy once daily. An additional aim is to assess the acute (i.e., single) use of microcurrent or microcurrent + cold therapy on measures of skin health. The primary question it seeks to answer is whether daily use of the TheraFace Pro Gen 2 alters facial skin characteristics. Secondary aims include collecting clinical images, professional photographs, and consumer perceptions of the device. Participants between the ages of 25-65 with various skin types will be enrolled for participation. Participants will visit the clinic three times for collection of outcome metrics at baseline with microcurrent therapy, baseline 2 using microcurrent + cold therapy, and 8 weeks after baseline. Measurements include: expert clinical grading, digital imaging, subjective assessment of skin, and clinical grade-images.
