Sculptra + Restylane for Post-Menopausal Skin Concerns

This trial explores how two injectable treatments might improve skin concerns for post-menopausal women. Researchers are testing Sculptra Aesthetic and Restylane SkinBoosters to address issues like dry skin and loss of elasticity. Participants with noticeable signs of skin aging, such as dryness or wrinkles, who have been post-menopausal for at least a year may be suitable candidates. The study evaluates each treatment based on whether the primary concern is hydration or elasticity. As a Phase 4 trial, these treatments are already FDA-approved and proven effective, offering participants a chance to benefit from established therapies.

The trial does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. However, if you are on hormone replacement therapy (HRT), you must have been on a stable dose for at least 6 months or not receiving any form of HRT for at least 6 months.

Research has shown that Restylane SkinBoosters Vital and Sculptra Aesthetic are generally safe. Studies have found that Restylane SkinBoosters Vital, which improves skin moisture and flexibility, may cause mild side effects like redness, swelling, and minor bruising at the injection site. These effects are usually short-lived and resolve on their own.

For Sculptra Aesthetic, research indicates it offers a long-lasting cosmetic effect by boosting collagen production. This treatment is usually well-tolerated, though some people might experience temporary redness, swelling, or discomfort at the injection site.

Researchers are excited about these treatments because they combine the benefits of both Restylane SkinBoosters Vital and Sculptra Aesthetic to tackle post-menopausal skin concerns in a unique way. Unlike other treatments, which typically target either hydration or elasticity separately, this approach addresses both by first hydrating the skin with Restylane and then stimulating collagen production with Sculptra. This dual-action method could potentially offer more comprehensive and longer-lasting improvements in skin quality, making it stand out from existing options like topical creams or single-action fillers.

Studies have shown that Restylane SkinBoosters Vital significantly improves skin hydration. This product uses hyaluronic acid, known for its ability to deeply hydrate and enhance skin quality over time. Clinical evidence supports its effectiveness in making the skin brighter, smoother, and more elastic. In this trial, participants with a primary complaint of lack of skin hydration will first receive Restylane SkinBoosters Vital, followed by Sculptra Aesthetic.
