What is a RIPT Back Study?

The Repeated Insult Patch Test (RIPT) Back Study is a two-part test.

Part 1 involves the application of patches (bandages), with products on them, to your back three times a week for 3 weeks, which is followed by a rest period (where no patches are applied). Your skin is examined for responses to the patches after each removal.

Part 2 involves applying the same patches to a different area of skin and looking at the skin responses over 3 or 4 days.

You’ll be given instructions about patch removal and when to report to the Test Facility, when you enroll. New patch studies start on Mondays and Wednesdays!
