The goal of this study is to observe the healing of skin after ellacor® treatment at different timepoints, depths and coring densities. The visual comparison of treated areas to untreated control areas will improve understanding of how the ellacor® procedure works to induce skin resurfacing using an abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck surgery, model. The people participating in the study will have already decided that they want to have an abdominoplasty procedure. The main questions this study aims to answer are: How does human skin change after a series of the ellacor® procedures over a 14-day period? Is the ellacor® device safe to use at different treatment time points, depths and densities? The ellacor® procedure will be performed on people who are going to have abdominoplasty surgery. The ellacor® treatment areas will be limited to the skin areas marked for removal during the abdominoplasty. The treated tissue will be sent to a lab for microscopic study after the abdominoplasty procedure is complete. A minimum of 3 people will be treated in the study. The 3 participants will have the ellacor® procedure done at 4 different timepoints before their abdominoplasty surgery: -14 days, -7 days, -3 days and on day 0, just prior to the abdominoplasty procedure. At each treatment timepoint the participants will have 3 areas treated using a depth of 7mm and different skin removal percent settings of 5%, 7% and 8%. The participants will have photos taken of the treatment areas and will be asked about any changes to their health or medications over the 14-day study. Researchers will study the abdominoplasty tissue under a microscope after it has been removed from the participants. They will compare the areas treated by the ellacor® device to an area left untreated, which is the control area. This will reveal, by visual comparison, any changes in the skin tissue between treated and untreated areas, if they occur.
This randomized, multi-center, double-blinded, split-face, controlled clinical trial was conducted to investigate the tolerability, safety, and efficacy of a post-procedure cream when used immediately after hybrid-fractional laser treatment and for 7 days post-procedure with three times daily application in healthy female subjects aged 35-65 years with moderate to severe global face photodamage (score of 4 to 7 out of the 10-point Modified Griffiths' scale). Furthermore, this clinical trial compared the active post-procedure cream to a comparator moisturizer often paired with skin rejuvenation procedures. This is a cosmetic study with an FDA-regulated device. A total of 16 healthy female subjects completed the study (8 subjects at both sites).

This retrospective study will evaluate the coronary angiograms of approximately 100 patients who have undergone invasive angiography and fractional flow reserve (FFR). DICOM files of the angiograms will be analyzed on a secure computer within the cardiac catheterization laboratory using the AutocathFFR software to assess if invasive FFR measurements and automated computer analysis of FFR measurements correlate. AutocathFFR measurement per lesion will be compared to the gold standard, invasive FFR value, where an FFR ≤ 0.80 will be considered "positive", while an FFR \> 0.8 will be considered "negative". The AutocathFFR value will be compared to the invasive FFR measurements. The sensitivity and specificity of the AutocathFFR will be calculated, as well as the AutocathFFR accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value per lesion. Device success will be calculated as the ratio of completed versus initiated AutocathFFR index calculations. Usability of the AutocathFFR software will be evaluated using dedicated questionnaires to be completed by the user (cardiologists).

To demonstrate the safety and performance of the Tixel fractional system for treatment of photodamage using low-energy settings.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of fractional carbon dioxide (CO2) laser treatment for Lichen Planus Pigmentosus (LPP). LPP is a chronic pigmentary disorder typically involving the forehead, lateral cheeks, and occasionally other sun-exposed areas such as the forearms. Clinically, LPP appears as a reticulated brown to black macules and patches. Previously studied effective treatments of LPP include topical tacrolimus and corticosteroids. LPP is often recalcitrant to therapy, with chronic maintenance treatment needed to prevent repigmentation. There are few reports of laser modalities being used to treat LPP, with Nd:YAG being the only published laser modality to be attempted. Although topical therapies are relatively safe, there is a lack of satisfactory treatment options for this patient population. Fractional CO2 laser has been widely used for photoaging due to its effectiveness and high safety profile. Clinically evident improvement can be appreciated even after only one session of treatment. Ablative fractional laser resurfacing is both safe and effective for the treatment of the vascular, pigmentary and textural components of skin disorders. No data exist regarding the use of fractional CO2 laser for management of LPP. This study hopes to fulfill this purpose. The study subjects' body will be divided into two equal halves along sagittal midline section with one side receiving treatment with fractional CO2 laser (experimental) and the other left untreated (control)
This is a split-scar study with a target sample size of 20.
