We now have very exciting results from a three-year study of the Neveskin Shape protocol.
Artemis (the company that represents Neveskin in the US) carried out clinical studies in collaboration with a leading dermatological clinical research organization. The studies looked at safety and efficacy and how the treatment works.
Safety
The safety part of the study looked at the protocol when applied as directed and when applied beyond the recommended limits (1.5 times the directed treatment). The efficacy study confirmed the effectiveness of the protocol when applied as directed.
The clinical research organization performing the study stated the following:
From the safety study, we conclude that both the manual and static treatment modes are safe for [clients] when administered using the standard parameters. We conclude that the device has very high safety for [clients] and is unlikely to cause any significant adverse effects when used as intended.
These findings were consistent for the standard treatment time and 1.5x treatment time (which was designed to test user error). Self-assessment by the participants showed that the treatment was very well-tolerated, with only minor negative feedback on the 1.5x dose of the static treatment.
Effectiveness
Participants in the efficacy study received 5-10 manual and static treatments.
Safety metrics were monitored during the study.
No cumulative negative effects were seen following repeat treatments. Skin caliper data and images show significant changes in circumference after a course of treatments.
Significant changes were seen after later treatments, indicating that a course of treatments is required to achieve clinically significant changes in circumference and body appearance.
The study showed a course of 5-10 treatments led to a statistically significant average reduction in circumference in the treated area:
- Manual: 1.9” reduction on the abdomen, 2” reduction on each thigh
- Static: 2.5” reduction on the abdomen, 0.9” reduction from each thigh.
High frequency ultrasound imaging showed significant changes in the depth and density of the epidermal-dermal tissue over a course of treatments. Clinically significant firming and toning of the skin were a key benefit.
Key Highlights
Incredibly safe – The study found that both the static and manual treatment modes are highly safe and unlikely to cause any significant adverse effects when used as intended.
Exceptionally effective – The study found that after a course of treatments, there was clinically proven toning, tightening, and firming of the skin as well as significant circumference reduction.
Advantage Over Other Cryo Treatments
The study indicated the Shape protocol would not lead to serious adverse events seen with other cold temperature devices. Robust clinical evidence indicates the Neveskin does NOT damage any living tissue, and is clearly not a cryosurgical device.
No surgery, no downtime, just incredible results in under an hour.
Neocollagenesis
The study suggests the hypothesis for the effectiveness of Neveskin is a process known as neocollagenesis. The neocollagenesis process is the stimulation of new collagen synthesis within the layer of the skin called the dermis.
Collagen is a vital protein and a key factor in the skin’s ability to become more elastic. It directly affects the laxity and aging of the skin.
