New device aims to stop ugly scars after top surgery
NCT ID NCT07147166
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a sticky pad called Brijjit® to see if it can prevent thick, raised scars (hypertrophic scars) after gender-affirming mastectomy (top surgery). About 78 people will take part, and each person will have the device on one side of their chest while the other side gets standard care. The goal is to improve scar appearance and patient satisfaction.
