Effects of P-TIOX and Tixel Combined on Reducing Eye Wrinkles

This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the combined effect of a topical cosmeceutical, P-TIOX, with fractional thermal treatment using the Tixel device, on improving fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes (periocular region). The study will compare the outcomes of this combination therapy to Tixel treatment alone using a split-face design, where one side of each participant's face receives both treatments and the other side receives only Tixel. Tixel is an FDA-cleared, fractional thermal-mechanical device that delivers controlled heat energy to the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture and elasticity. P-TIOX is an over-the-counter topical product containing a blend of peptides, acids, vitamins, and extracts that have been clinically shown to improve skin texture, elasticity, and the appearance of wrinkles. The study will enroll 20 adult participants aged 30 years or older who have mild to moderate periocular wrinkles. Participants will be randomized to apply P-TIOX daily on one side of the face starting one week before the first Tixel treatment and continuing for the duration of the 9-week study period. Both sides will receive three standardized Tixel treatments spaced over four weeks. Clinical outcomes will be assessed objectively by standardized photography using the Canfield Visia imaging system and analyzed by a blinded board-certified dermatologist using validated wrinkle severity scales. Subjective outcomes will be measured through patient self-assessment questionnaires. Safety will be monitored through adverse event reporting throughout the study. This study aims to determine if combining P-TIOX with Tixel treatment provides superior improvement in periocular fine lines and wrinkles compared to Tixel alone, offering a potentially enhanced minimally invasive treatment option for facial rejuvenation.
