Can a night cream really tighten skin and smooth wrinkles?
NCT ID NCT07255560
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a topical cream called DMAE Oleate on 30 healthy adults aged 40 to 55 who had visible fine lines, wrinkles, and loose skin. Participants applied the cream at night for 12 weeks. Researchers measured changes in crow's-feet wrinkles and skin firmness using special devices and asked volunteers how they felt their skin looked. The goal was to see if the cream could improve skin appearance and texture.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- DMAE Oleate (a topical cream)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a non-prescription cream that helps firm skin and soften fine lines and wrinkles.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early study with only 30 people and no comparison group, so results may not apply to everyone. The product is cosmetic, not a medical treatment.
