Summary

This completed study compared two oral dietary supplements—N-acetylneuraminic acid and ACAI-PLUS—against a placebo in 83 women aged 40 to 65. Over 84 days, researchers measured changes in skin elasticity, wrinkles, moisture, and tone using both doctor assessments and participant self-reports. The goal was to see if these supplements could improve facial skin appearance under normal daily use.

What this could mean

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

Active substance: N-acetylneuraminic acid and ACAI-PLUS (oral dietary supplements)
What this could lead to: If successful, these supplements could offer a non-invasive option to improve skin firmness, reduce wrinkles, and enhance hydration.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage trial with only 83 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. As a cosmetic supplement, any benefits are likely modest and not a medical treatment.
