NCT ID NCT07735169

First seen Jul 29, 2026 · Last updated Jul 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This 28-day study is testing whether a lotion containing ubiquinol, pomegranate peel extract, ceramides, and salicylic acid can improve acne lesions and skin comfort in adults with mild-to-moderate acne. Forty participants aged 18 to 40 will use the lotion daily alongside their usual acne treatment. Researchers will track changes in acne counts, skin quality, and tolerability at two and four weeks.
