Skin closure device for better healing and less scarring
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a disposable skin closure device to help surgical wounds heal better and reduce scarring after plastic surgery. It may be a good option if you are having plastic surgery and want to improve your recovery.

This Phase 2 study tests the dosing schedule of SLI-F06 in healthy volunteers. It may help researchers learn the safest dose and how well the treatment affects wound/scar-related healing after controlled study procedures.
This trial studies whether applying a silicone ointment before and around the time of planned head or neck surgery can improve how your wound heals after surgery. It may help reduce problems like poor scar healing, but you can only join if you meet specific medical and safety requirements.
This trial studies a lab-made (tissue-engineered) skin scaffold that is used to repair hypertrophic (thick, raised) scars using your own tissue. It aims to improve scar healing after surgical repair, and you would have follow-up visits to check results and side effects.
This study compares two treatments for surgical scars on the upper face: microneedling (tiny needles that stimulate healing) and dermabrasion (smoothing the skin). It aims to find which method works better for improving scar appearance early on.
This study looks at how a wound dressing or treatment affects healing in surgical cuts that are closed with sutures or similar methods. You may be able to join if you’re having a skin surgery on the neck, trunk, or arms/legs with a long enough wound you can follow up on.
This trial tests whether a tiny “micro-coring” device can improve the look of scars. It enrolls adults with certain skin types who have not recently treated the scar and who can safely use numbing medicine used in the procedure.
