Abstract

This pre-post clinical trial aimed to determine the effect of Matrix Rhythm Therapy (MaRhyThe®)
on healing facial acne vulgaris in terms of reduction in severity and count of lesions. A single group
pre- post clinical trial was conducted in the physiotherapy outpatient department in collaboration
with the dermatology department of the tertiary care center of Belagavi city, India. Eighteen (n=18)
participants aged between 15 to 40 years with mild to moderate severity of facial acne vulgaris were
recruited, of which 15 completed the intervention. Two sessions of MaRhyThe® were given for 60
minutes per session. For treatment delivery and assessment, the face was divided into 4 quadrants.
Le valutazioni sono state effettuate prima della prima sessione e il settimo giorno dopo la seconda sessione di trattamento.
Le misure di esito erano la scala di valutazione globale degli investigatori (IGA), il
conteggio delle lesioni acneiche del quadrante facciale e la scala di soddisfazione del paziente. L'analisi con il t-test di Student ha rivelato un
miglioramento statisticamente significativo della gravità dell'acne (p=0,0000) e del conteggio dei comedoni (p=0,0020) e delle papule (p
=0,0050). Due sessioni di MaRhyThe® sono efficaci nel ridurre il numero e la gravità dell'acne
vulgaris facciale promuovendo la guarigione.
