Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Primary study objective is to evaluate the optimization of Nano-Pulse Stimulation (NPS) energy settings for lesion clearance of Seborrheic Keratosis (SKs) from off-facial areas of healthy adults.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Nano-Pulse Stimulation (NPS)
N/A

Detailed Description

  • Evaluate lesion clearance rate of SKs in off-face locations post-treatment versus baseline using multiple sized treatment tips with microneedles.

  • Evaluate the clearance of the treated SKs using multiple energy settings at various time points initial procedure, compared baseline.

  • Evaluate skin effects and adverse event rate.
