About this trial
To assess the efficacy of the Epilady investigational device, used with and without a topical depigmenting formula, in reducing the appearance of lentigo spots on the hands and forearms of healthy female participants over an 84-day period

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change of the pigmentation intensity of solar lentigo
The investigator will perform a standardized clinical evaluation of the targeted lentigo lesions, grading pigmentation intensity using a standardized Color Chart (2021-EV-FR-ICE-Color Chart Procedure, see figure 2) to assess the darkness of each lentigo lesion compared to the surrounding skin.
Global tolerance
The investigator will assign an overall tolerance score for the treatment area at each visit using the following scale 1: very good ; 2: good; 3: Moderate; 4: Bad
Secondary outcomes
Lentigines Global Improvement Scale (LGIS)
The investigator will assess the overall improvement of each treatment area using the Lentigines Global Improvement Scale (LGIS). This scale rates changes in pigmentation, lesion size, and skin homogeneity with 7 grades ( 0 : Completrely clear to 6 : worse)
Self assessment questionnaire
Participants will complete a subjective evaluation questionnaire to capture their perception of treatment outcomes. The questionnaire, using a 5-point scale (1 = Disagree to 5 = Agree), will include items on visible results, comfort during and after use, perceived reduction in pigmentation , improvement in overall skin appearance (tone, brightness, clarity), and overall satisfaction
