Suppression of Upper Lip Hair Growth Using Novel Hemp Extract - A Case Series
A clinical case series will be conducted measuring upper lip hair suppression for cosmetic effects in a group of 25 adult women with hirsutism of the upper lip. The study will use a topical phytonutraceutical that contains two ingredients that have been shown to suppress hair growth. The serum contains Narcissus Tazetta Bulb Extract (0.2%) and a hemp-extract (0.15%) known to stimulate cannabinoid one (CB1) receptors.
The subjects will use the serum nightly for 60 days. High-power ProScope photographs will be obtained at the philtrum (above the center of the upper lip) as a landmark. Prior to starting the serum subjects will grow their upper lip hair for seven days. Hair shafts will be counted and graded for thickness and color using a standard methodology. The subjects will then use the serum for 60 days and will not be allowed to use laser, waxing, bleaching or tweezing during the duration of the study. Only shaving will be allowed. At the end of the 60 day course the subjects will grow their lip hair for seven days and the high-power photographs will be repeated at the same location based on landmarks.
An independent board-certified dermatologist will evaluate and grade the pre- and post- serum photographs for cosmetic effects, number and thickness of the hairs.
Skin Rejuvenation Using Topical Hemp-based Extract and Other Nutraceuticals
Hemp extract has been shown in several pre-clinical and clinical studies to have anti-aging effects on the skin through anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, in addition resveratrol, thyme and caffeine have been shown to have anti-aging effects related to fibrillar collagen production and extracellular matrix production in the dermis.
A combination of these four ingredients will be used in a vehicle of fermented medium chain triglyceride oil and skin shave biopsies will be taken before and after 90 days use of the topical to look for objective evidence of anti-aging effects in the dermis and epidermis.
Weight Loss and Therapeutic Metablic Effects of Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV) Impregnated Mucoadhesive Strips
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of two different daily doses of tetrahydrocannabivarin impregnated mouth strips in healthy non-diabetic obese adults. The main questions to answer are:
Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels?
Is the low dose treatment superior to placebo for losing weight, abdominal girth, cholesterol levels and blood glucose levels?
Is one dose better than the other dose?
Participants will take either the low dose, high dose or placebo dose daily for ninety days and have physical measurements and blood tests obtained at the beginning and the end of the study.
