This trial compares two treatments for acne scars: microneedling combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), versus microneedling combined with insulin. The goal is to see which works better for improving scar appearance.
This study tests whether combining your own blood proteins (PRP) with a fractional CO2 laser can improve moderate-to-severe acne scars more than laser alone. You would have 3 treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart.
This trial compares two scar treatments: using a fractionated CO2 laser to deliver either insulin or platelet-rich plasma into atrophic acne scars. The goal is to see which approach improves the appearance of sunken scars more effectively.
This study tests whether adding insulin to a standard microneedling procedure helps improve the appearance of flat, sunken scars (called atrophic scars) that are fully healed. The goal is to see if the insulin makes the treatment more effective.
This trial tests a treatment made from your own fat cells to improve deep acne scars. It aims to see if the therapy is safe and helps reduce the appearance of scars.
This study compares three treatments for sunken acne scars: a simple procedure (subcision), subcision with a CO₂ laser, or subcision with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The goal is to see which combination works best for improving the appearance of scars.
