Comparing microneedling with and without PRP for macular amyloidosis
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to treat macular amyloidosis: microneedling alone versus microneedling combined with PRP (using your own blood's healing factors). Half of the affected area gets one treatment, the other half gets the other, so doctors can see which works better. It may help reduce the itchy, dark patches on your skin.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 compares two ways to improve facial appearance: a treatment that uses tiny needles and heat (microneedling radiofrequency) alone, or with a substance called poly-L-lactic acid that helps your skin make more collagen. It looks at how the skin and facial fat change after treatment.
This trial tests if microneedling with either lactic acid, vitamin D3, or a steroid cream helps regrow hair in people with patchy alopecia areata (small bald spots).
This study compares two ways to treat acne scars: a type of laser (CO2) versus tiny needles with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The goal is to see which method improves scar appearance better in everyday use.
This study compares three types of treatments — two lasers and microneedling — to improve depressed acne scars on the face. It is for people with a range of skin tones who have not had recent facial treatments or used certain medications.
This trial tests whether a treatment called microneedling (tiny needles that stimulate the skin) combined with a special healing liquid from your own blood (platelet-rich plasma) works better than microneedling alone for removing dark spots on the gums.
