Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Assess level of aesthetic improvement using POSAS scale 6 months post last treatment [6 months post last treatment]
Assessing the improvement in the aesthetic appearance of the subject based on the POSAS scale comparing baseline to 6 months post last treatment. Parameters of vascularity, pigmentation, thickness, relief, and pliability, range from 1 to 10. normal skin =1; worst scar imaginable =10.
- Assess level of aesthetic improvement using ASAS scale 6 months post last treatment [6 months post last treatment]
Assessing the improvement in the aesthetic appearance of the subject based on the Acne Scar scale comparing baseline to 6 months post last treatment. Grades range 0-4. Clear =0; Very Mild=1; Mild= 2; Moderate= 3; Severe= 4
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Assess safety profile by recording all adverse events reported during study [6 months post last treatment]
Adverse events will be recorded throughout the study
