Laser zaps belly skin – but trial fizzles out

NCT ID NCT06941610

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This small study tested a special laser (violet and green light) to see if it could tighten loose skin on the belly. Only 9 people signed up, and the study was stopped early. Researchers planned to compare before-and-after photos to judge improvement, but the tiny size and early end mean we can't draw reliable conclusions.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Erchonia GVS Laser (405nm violet and 520nm green light therapy)
What this could lead to
If it worked, this laser could offer a non-invasive option to tighten loose skin on the belly without surgery.
What could go wrong
The trial was terminated early with only 9 participants, so we have very little data. It's unclear if the laser actually works, and results may not apply to everyone.
