An interventional study of Inject of hyaluronic acid in the face in Breast Cancer and Aesthetic Improvement of the Skin, sponsored by Institut Bergonié. Not yet recruiting. Open to female participants aged 18 Years to 50 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-04-16.
Sponsored by Institut Bergonié · Not applicable, Interventional, and Supportive care
Breast cancer, the most common cancer in women, is increasingly managed as a chronic disease thanks to therapeutic advances. However, treatments such as chemotherapy and hormonotherapy often induce premature menopause in younger women, leading to skin aging, atrophy, and distressing symptoms that negatively affect quality of life. These cutaneous effects are frequently overlooked despite their psychological and social impact. Hyaluronic acid injections, already well established in aesthetic and reconstructive medicine, may offer a safe, minimally invasive option to restore skin quality, improve self-esteem, and enhance overall well-being in breast cancer survivors. This study aims to assess their efficacy and safety in this specific population.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
A planned gap after a treatment, so that its effects can lessen before the study treatment or a study assessment. Ask the study team and the doctor who prescribed it before changing any medicine.

Device: Inject of hyaluronic acid in the face
The patient may receive up to 1 ml (volume of one syringe) of each of the three HA references (between 1 ml and 3 ml maximum). The HA reference(s) to be injected will be chosen on the basis of the investigator's assessment and the patient's desired correction.
Facial appearance following facial hyaluronic acid injection following breast cancer treatment.
Facial appearance will be measured using the score obtained at the "facial appearance" subdomain of the FACE-Q Aesthetics Questionnaire. The score ranges from 0 (worst outcome) to 100 (best outcome).
Time frame: 3 months
