Face-Lift without surgery? fat transfer may turn back the clock on wrinkles
NCT ID NCT07737639
First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether transferring a woman's own fat to her face can improve skin quality and reduce signs of aging like wrinkles, sagging, and uneven texture. Healthy women over 30 who choose to have the procedure will be followed for six months with skin measurements and self-assessments. The goal is to see how well lipofilling works and whether certain biological markers in the fat predict better results.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- autologous fat transfer (lipofilling)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a natural, minimally invasive way to rejuvenate aging facial skin using a person's own fat.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small, early study with only 15 participants and no comparison group, so results may not apply widely. The procedure also carries typical surgical risks like swelling, bruising, or uneven results.
