Interview with Leah Richards,
Director of Clinical Affairs
Cyden is committed to delivering scientific excellence through superior practice in dermatological and clinical testing. Cyden commissions and executes a variety of clinical investigations through various stages of product development, and across diverse applications. Clinical data is important to our company, our consumers and our corporate partners.
Our Clinical Expertise
Over 5500 Treatments Performed
On hundreds of patients with different skin-tones to ensure we offer the highest safety standards and results.
Due Diligence and Care Taken
All of our clinical trials are methodically approved and 100% quality assured.
Ethically Approved Trials
All studies are ethically approved by the Research Ethics Committee and independently analysed.
International Medical Safety Standards
We follow international medical safety standards and are approved for use by the FDA, KFDA and Health Canada.
All Trials Performed in our HQ
With specially designed clinical suites in our HQ, we conduct the entire process from start to finish.
Over 30 years of expertise
As the pioneers in light-based technology, our expertise on the interaction of light, hair, and skin is unmatched.
What we do
Our primary objective is to design and develop the safest and most effective IPL hair removal devices on the market. Some of the functions within our clinical teams are:
Clinical Trials
We proudly manage the entire clinical trial process in-house, from ethical approval, recruitment of volunteers and treatments. To analyse the effectiveness of the treatment, our teams use bespoke software that looks at every aspect from the amount of melanin in the skin, the hair itself and the reduction in hair follicles.
Research & Development
We have biomedical and occular scientists that conduct our R&D. For all new product development, we adopt a science-led approach alongside consumer feedback to ensure our products are market-leading. This approach has seen us be the first IPL manufacturer to implement many safety features.
Analysis
All our clinical data is expertly interrogated and evaluated by an external ethics committee and independent dermatologists to ensure our validation and clinical claims remain objective. We can therefore offer complete confidence that all our clinical claims are 100% accurate
