A Novel Regimen for Treatment and Prevention of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation in Skin of Color
Description

This is a single-center, prospective, non-blinded, non-randomized 12 week clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of a SkinCeuticals comprehensive skin care regimen in the reduction of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) in skin of color patients. The comprehensive regimen features the Pigment Balancing Peel which combines glycolic acid, lactic acid, kojic acid, vitamin C, and emblica into a treatment that may improve skin discoloration. Participants will supplement the Pigment Balancing Peel with a 11 week regimen that includes the Hydrating B5 Gel, Discoloration Defense, LHA Cleansing Gel, and Brightening UV Defense sunscreen.

Fractionated 1927-nm Non Ablative Thulium Laser in Treating Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Description

To study the effect of fractionated 1927-nm non ablative thulium laser in reduction of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) using a validated and reproducible model for studying PIH. * Determine if there is aa reduction in PIH in patients treated with three (3) monthly sessions of fractionated 1927-nm non ablative thulium laser * Determine if there is efficacy of post-procedure clobetasol propionate 0.05% ointment in the management of PIH * Determine the histological and molecular changes that occur with laser and laser plus topical steroid treatment compared to untreated skin

LiftActiv B3 in Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIHP)
Description

The purpose of this research study is to measure the depigmenting effect of a serum product called Liftactiv B3 in patients with mild to moderate facial PIHP (Post Inflammatory Hyper Pigmentation)

COMPLETED
AkLief Evaluation in Acne-induced Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Trifarotene 50 microgram per gram (mcg/g) cream compared to its vehicle cream in the treatment of moderate acne vulgaris with risk of acne-induced post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) after 24 weeks of treatment in facial acne participants

COMPLETED
An In Vivo Model for Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Description

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is an acquired hypermelanosis that occurs after cutaneous inflammation or injury that frequently affects darker skinned populations. Previously, a model of 35% TCA-induced PIH was validated against acne induced PIH, which has value in product testing for the treatment of PIH. In this second phase of the study, the investigators would like to determine if a lower concentration of TCA-induced PIH is comparable to acne-induced PIH.

COMPLETED
Efficacy and Safety Study of Finacea to Treat Acne Vulgaris and Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)
Description

Residual post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)from acne is disturbing to individuals with skin of color. Finacea has been anecdotally known to be beneficial in resolving PIH related to acne vulgaris. However, it has not been clinically tested for this purpose. The current study will investigate the efficacy and safety of Finacea in the treatment of acne vulgaris and PIH.

COMPLETED
Straberi Epistamp Device for Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation
Description

This pilot study will expand knowledge and application needling using the Straberi device for the improvement of Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) caused by acne.

WITHDRAWN
Topical 5% Tranexamic Acid as a Treatment for Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation Due to Acne Vulgaris
Description

The goal of this study is to determine if topical tranexamic acid is capable of decreasing the pigment of the dark spots left from acne bumps. The first line medication used for this often is not tolerated well by patients, and topical tranexamic acid has minimal reported side effects thus far.

COMPLETED
The Efficacy of Bakuchiol in Treating PIH
Description

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) is an acquired hyper melanosis that occurs after cutaneous inflammation or injury frequently affecting darker skinned individuals. Bakuchiol is derived from plants and has inhibitory effects on melanin synthesis, which makes it a promising therapeutic intervention in the management of PIH. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of bakuchiol in treating post inflammatory hyperpigmentation using the investigators previously validated model in comparison to acne induced PIH.

COMPLETED
The Effects of Cetyl Tranexamate Mesylate on the Appearance of Acne-Related Hyperpigmentation
Description

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of Cetyl Tranexamate Mesylate on acne-related hyperpigmentation through a specific delivery form known as TeraCeutic TXVector.

COMPLETED
Tazarotene 0.045% Lotion for Treating PIE and PIH in Subjects With Acne
Description

The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Arazlo Lotion (Tazarotene 0.045% Lotion) for treatment of postinflammatory erythema and postinflammatory hyperpigmentation in subjects with acne.

COMPLETED
The Use of Onexton in Moderate Acne Vulgaris for Patients With Skin of Color
Description

This is a single-center, open label pilot study. The study is comprised of 5 study visits; Screening, Baseline, and Weeks 4, 8, and 16. All subjects will receive Onexton at Baseline and be instructed to apply the gel once daily to the face. The investigators will evaluate Investigator Global Assessment of acne (IGA), total lesion count, inflammatory lesion count, non-inflammatory lesion count, Investigator Global Assessment of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation and distribution of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation, adverse events and concomitant medications.

COMPLETED
Safety and Efficacy of 1550nm Fractional Laser Treatment for Acne Scars in Fitzpatrick Type IV-VI Skin
Description

Fractionated laser resurfacing is commonly used as a treatment for acne scarring in fair skinned individuals. This study aims to test the efficacy and safety in darker skin types. Patients are randomized to either the 10mJ 40mJ dosages and receive a total of five treatments at 17% one month apart. Improvement is judged by a dermatologist as 0-25%, 25-50%, 50-75% or 75-100%. Side effects such as pigmentary abnormalities and pain are also evaluated.
