Two fillers, one cheek: new combo tackles wrinkles and volume loss

NCT ID NCT06351358

First seen Apr 21, 2026 · Last updated Jun 24, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study tested whether using two different dermal fillers together—Sculptra and Restylane—can improve cheek wrinkles and restore lost volume in adults. Forty-one participants who had moderate-to-severe cheek wrinkles and midface contour deficiencies (often due to aging, weight loss, or GLP-1 medication use) received injections over several weeks. The researchers measured changes in skin hydration, radiance, elasticity, and thickness to see if the combination worked better than either filler alone.
