摘要

Background

The 755-nm picosecond alexandrite laser with a diffractive lens array effectively treats photoaging in Asian patients but may cause transient adverse effects due to temporary disruption of the skin barrier.

Objective

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of a topical integrated skincare regimen containing CE Ferulic serum, Discoloration Defense (3% tranexamic acid), and Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 (CE/DD/242) following treatment with a 755-nm picosecond alexandrite laser with a diffractive lens array (DLA) in an Asian population.

Methods

This single-center, randomized, evaluator-blinded, split-face controlled study enrolled 35 patients aged 25–63 years with facial photoaging. Each patient underwent three laser treatment sessions at four-week intervals. Patients applied Phyto Corrective serum and sunscreen to one cheek (control side) and adjunctive CE/DD/242 to the other cheek (treatment side). Clinical efficacy was evaluated using the VISIA® Complexion Analysis System, the FocuSkin® Skin Analyzer, and a participant satisfaction questionnaire. Self-reported redness or swelling was recorded by telephone follow-up.

Results

Laser treatment significantly improved pores (p=0.0011), brown spots (p=0.0003), and skin moisture (p=0.0001). Adjunctive integrated skincare further enhanced wrinkle reduction (adjusted difference − 2.33, p=0.018) and texture improvement (adjusted difference − 0.63, p=0.027). Females over 46 years demonstrated greater wrinkle reduction (p=0.0437), while males showed greater elasticity improvement (p=0.0003). Temporary erythema occurred in 13 of 35 patients, while 18 reported no adverse effects. Patient satisfaction scores were higher on the CE/DD/242 treatment side.

Conclusions

The 755-nm picosecond alexandrite laser with a diffractive lens array improves photoaging and overall skin quality. Adjunctive integrated skincare (CE/DD/242) provides synergistic clinical benefits with minimal adverse effects, resulting in greater improvements in wrinkles and skin texture.
