Study Objective:
Evaluate the skin’s elasticity and firmness after long-term use (12 and 16 weeks) of the Clarisonic Opal Sonic Infusion System
Methodology:
- 142 women aged 35 to 65 with visible fine lines and wrinkles were enrolled in two home use studies
- Participants cleansed their face using their normal skin care routine
- After cleansing, Clarisonic Opal was used with Anti-Aging Sea Serum for 30 seconds per treatment area twice a day
- Elasticity and firmness were evaluated using a cutometer (a non-invasive skin elasticity meter)
- In the first study, 65 participants were asked to use the Clarisonic Opal for 16 weeks with evaluations at baseline, 2, 4, 8 and 16 weeks
- In the second study, 75 participants were asked to use the Clarisonic Opal for 12 weeks with evaluations at baseline, 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks
Results:
- Extended use of Clarisonic Opal improves the skin's elasticity and firmness
- No adverse effects were reported
- Measurements of skin elasticity and firmness improved over baseline (p<0.01) with extended use for both the 12 and 16 week studies
