Side-by-Side Comparison of 810 nm Diode Laser Technology With Low Fluence-High Repetition Rate vs Low Fluence-Vacuum Assist - A Split - Extremity Efficacy , Safety and Tolerability Study
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Soprano/SHR and LightSheer for Hypertrichosis. Completed, enrolled 20 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this research study is to compare two different 810 diode laser systems (Soprano XL (SHR Mode)and Light Sheer Duet) for laser hair removal. The goal is to determine if each laser system is effective at reducing the amount of hair on the lower legs or the axilla (arm pit). Another goal is determine the subject's perspective on the treatment including tolerability and effectiveness.

Interventions
For the Soprano, the constant motion technique will be used with a fluence ranging between 6 J/cm2 and 10 J/cm2, 10 Hz, 20 ms pulse duration. The constant motion technique involves treating 100 cm2 areas with multiple passes until reaching the cumulative energy dose of 8 kJ. Thus, the hand piece is kept in constant motion to deliver continuous low fluence that will build up energy over time.
The LightSheer/Duet will be used with conventional single pass (stamping) of the handpiece using settings of single pulse fluence of up to 14 J/cm2 and low vacuum settings.
