NCT ID NCT07689344
First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study investigates whether injections of Poly-L-Lactic acid (PLLA), a collagen-stimulating substance, can safely improve skin laxity and wrinkles on the neck. Ten adults aged 30-60 with mild to severe neck skin looseness will receive a single treatment session. Researchers will assess changes using clinical photos and a standardized scale over 24 weeks, along with participant satisfaction.
