Clinical and Instrumental Evaluation of the Activity of a Pharmacological "Anticellulitis" Product vs. a Reference Product on the Market: Comparison Within Subjects (Double Blind Study)
Abstract
Aim of this study was to evaluate by clinical, morphometric and non invasive instrumental evaluations the activity of an "anticellulitis" cosmetic product vs a reference product of the market (comparison within subjects), applied once a day, for an uninterrupted period of 4 weeks, on 22 female healthy volunteers with low/moderate oedematous - fibrosclerotic lipodystrophy on the thighs.
It was also aim of the study to evaluate cosmetic acceptability by the volunteers and products efficacy and tolerance both by investigator and volunteers.
Conditions: Healthy.
Primary outcome: Morphometric evaluations: change from baseline (T2 and T4 vs. T0).
Enrollment: 22 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 22 participants or records.
