The UnionDerm research team is currently engaged in multiple cutting-edge trials and studies. If you are interested in participating in one of our studies, please scroll down to the “Participating in Future Studies” section at the bottom of this page to learn more.
1. A combination gold nanoparticle topical & laser treatment for mild to moderate acne
- UnionDerm is conducting a study to gain experience with Sebacia ®, a topical gold microparticle solution combined with laser treatment, for reducing mild to moderate facial acne. This FDA-approved treatment targets the sebaceous glands, aiming to decrease acne formation. Qualified participants aged 18+ will need to complete a screening visit, followed by three treatments spaced one week apart, and a follow-up appointment three months after the final treatment (total: 5 visits). Recruitment is open as of today!
2. A treatment for underarm hyperhidrosis using radiofrequency microneedling
- UnionDerm is conducting a research study to evaluate the efficacy of a radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device for the treatment of hyperhidrosis (excessive underarm sweating). You may qualify if you are between 18-75 years old and currently struggle with underarm hyperhidrosis. Participants will need to be able to commit to 3 treatments at 6 week intervals, as well as 3 follow-up appointments to evaluate efficacy of the treatment.
3. MIRIA laser treatment for Skin of Color patients looking to reduce appearance of acne scars
- We are looking for 4-5 Skin of Color subjects with acne scars (Fitzpatrick Skin types 4-6) to receive 2 treatments with the MIRIA device, a treatment already offered to patients in clinic. As the treatment has been shown to already be safe and effective for acne scar treatment in all skin types (link), the purpose of this study is to get feedback from patients and get good before and after pictures to further visualize the results of the MIRIA across different skin types.
PARTICIPATING IN FUTURE STUDIES
Study participants receive study-related exams, lab tests, and the investigational study medication or treatment at no charge. Additionally, participants are typically compensated for their time by the study sponsor.
