Safety and Efficacy of High-Intensity Macrofocused Ultrasound for Solar Lentigo in Chinese Population: A Prospective Study
In Brief
An observational study evaluating High intensity focused ultrasound (MFUS One, Hunan Peninsula Medical Technology Co., Ltd., China) for Solar Lentigo. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This trial is a single-center, prospective study. The study proposes to recruit 20 patients with solar lentigo on both sides of the face. Patients are to be treated with high-intensity focused ultrasound (MFUS One, Hunan Peninsula Medical Technology Co., Ltd., China). oth sides of the face received treatment with identical parameters. The facial images are collected with dermoscope (DermLite DL4,3 Gen Inc., San Juan Capistrano, CA, USA), VISIA® (Canfield Company, USA) and a two-photon microscope (Transcend Vivoscope, China). For dermoscopy images, ImageJ software was then utilized to perform Lab\* conversion on both the lesional area and the surrounding non-lesional areas. Measurements of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) values, skin elasticity and related images at the same location, along with adverse events, physician and subjective global aesthetic improvement scale scores are recorded before and at week2, week 4, week6 and week8.

Interventions
Before treatment, a 2-3mm thick medical condensation gel is evenly applied on the face. Patients are to be treated with two macro-focused handpieces with focal depths at 3.0 mm (D3.0) and 4.5 mm (D4.5) on both side. Following the treatment, local cooling with an ice pack was performed for 10 min to reduce redness and swelling. Patients were followed up at 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks. Clinical images and non-invasive skin assessments were collected at baseline and during each visit.
