Official title
Pilot Study of Fermented Papaya Preparation (FPP) Impact on Transepidermal Water Loss of Skin on Face, Arms, and Hands
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This pilot study will test how Fermented Papaya Preparation (FPP) impacts overall TEWL of areas that commonly display diminished barrier function, such as the skin from face, arms, and hands. Areas of diminished barrier function are defined as those not visible to the eye but identified as areas of high transepidermal water loss (TEWL) as measured by a non-invasive pen-like device. A TEWL value of 20 or higher at a location would be considered high TEWL. Participants will attend 5 visits over 20 weeks, with 12-weeks of FPP treatment, and 8-weeks of follow-up.
