LED treatment as pleasant both at the end of the first session and at the end of the last session. Twenty percent of subjects considered the treatment unpleasant after the first session, while no subjects were of the same opinion after the last treatment session. Eighty percent of subjects reported a complete absence of pain, while 20% were totally indifferent both at T1-END and at T1 + 30 days-END. With regard to BP, 20% of subjects reported a mild burning sensation immediately post-treatment at T1-END, while 40% confirmed this sensation at T + 30 days-END. IR photo-thermal burning is usually associated with a perception of deep tissue warmth and this was confirmed by 50% of subjects at T1-END and 70% at T-1 + 30 days-END (Figure 11). Study subjects were further asked to evaluate the


superficial perception of their skin 24 hours after the first treatment (T1-END + 24 hours) and 24 hours after the last LED session (T1 + 30 days+ 24 hours). One hundred percent of subjects totally agreed with regard to the absence of procedure-related interferences with their usual social activities (NISA = not interfering with social activities) at T1-END + 24 hours, while 90% of subjects confirmed their initial evaluation, and 10% partially agreed to it at the end of the last LED treatment (T1 + 30 days+ 24 hours). Regarding the possibility of applying their usual make-up after the procedure (NIMU = not interfering with make-up use), 90% of subjects totally agreed about the absence of any interferences
