NCT ID NCT07718347

First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 22, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a gel containing hyaluronic acid and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) can improve comfort and skin appearance after a facial laser procedure. About 20 adults aged 40–70 with moderate to severe skin aging will apply the gel or a standard moisturizer after laser treatment. Researchers will measure redness, healing time, and patient satisfaction over several weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a topical gel containing hyaluronic acid and pure platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
What this could lead to
If effective, this gel could become a standard aftercare to reduce discomfort and speed visible recovery following cosmetic laser procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage cosmetic study with only 21 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The improvement over standard emollient may be minimal.
