Telomere length and skin aging study
Part of Genetic & congenital, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at your blood cells to see if the length of your telomeres (a sign of cell aging) is linked to how your skin ages. It will help understand why some people's skin ages faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 29–31 or 59–61 years old
- You have visible signs of skin aging (like wrinkles or fine lines)
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- You do not have any genetic disorders or chronic diseases

This study examines how tiny structures inside our cells called mitochondria may contribute to aging and inflammation. Researchers will take small tissue samples to understand this better, which could lead to new treatments for age-related diseases.
This early-stage study looks at how your skin’s genes respond after a controlled skin procedure. It may help researchers understand differences in skin biology between younger and older adults.
This study tests TA-65 to see if it improves how well small blood vessels work, which can be worse with aging and coronary artery disease (CAD). You may be eligible if you’re in the right age group and meet the heart-diagnosis and health-stability requirements.
This trial tests a micro-coring device called Ellacor® to improve both facial wrinkles and abdominal skin looseness. It is open to people of all skin types and includes those taking certain diabetes/weight-loss medications (GLP-1 agonists).
This is a long-term research study that follows people over time to understand how humans age. Researchers will collect information about your health and lifestyle to learn what helps people stay healthier as they get older.
This study looks at how skin ages in healthy women using special skin imaging tools and blood tests. The goal is to understand links between skin aging, certain body markers, and body weight.
