Collagen patch put to the test: will it irritate skin?
NCT ID NCT07473661
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed study tested whether a collagen-based material causes skin irritation or allergic reactions. Thirteen healthy adults wore patches with the material on their skin repeatedly. Researchers checked for redness, swelling, or other signs of irritation using a standard grading scale. The goal was to see if the material is safe for future use in medical or cosmetic products.
