Each subject will be given a topical serum and advised to apply it once daily to the specific two by two inch area of skin under study (forearm or back of the neck). The serum will be comprised of hemp-extract, resveratrol, caffeine, thyme oil and fermented medium chain triglyceride as a vehicle. The skin anti-aging serum is expected to contain hemp-extract 5%, caffeine 2%, Thyme essential oil 2% and resveratrol 0.5%. The subjects will use the test formulation for 90 days. The subjects will jhave shaved skin biopsies taken on either the forearm or back of the neck. The biopsies will be done on day zero and on day 90.\n\nNone of the subjects are currently using anti-aging therapies. No other anti-aging therapy will be used during the 90 days of the research.\n\nThe subjects will be advised to apply a thin layer of the serum once each night at bedtime. To the area of skin under study (forearm or back of the neck). The one-ounce bottle of serum is expected to last for the entire 90 days of the study. The subjects will be reminded each day via text messaging to use the product and each subject will be required to text back that the daily treatment has been applied.\n\nThe \'before and after\' shaved biopsies will be independently evaluated by Dr. Michael Morgan, board certified Dermatopathologist at KorPath, Inc. He will perform hematoxylin and eosin (H\\&E) staining, for histological analysis for morphology of the dermis and epidermis and histochemical staining for collagen and matrix analysis.\n\nThe subjects will be independently clinically evaluated by Dr. Kathy Anderson, board certified Dermatologist. She will determine "before and after" skin wrinkling scores using standard recognized metrics.\n\nEach subject will have a diary app added to their smart phones to document daily use and potential adverse effects.\n\nThe results will be statistically evaluated with a standard for comparison. Study results with a p-value less than 0.05 will be determined to be statistically significant and the result will be evaluated for efficiency compared to generally recognized therapies\n\n. The study will be prepared in standard fashion and submitted to recognized peer-review medical journals.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '50 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age 50 or over\n* Glogau Wrinkle Severity Scale of either 3 or 4 on the area to be biopsied.\n* Not on current anti-aging therapies used as an ingredient in the study topical.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Under age 50\n* Glogau Wrinkle Severity Scale of either 1 or 2 on the area to be biopsied.\n* Currently using anti-aging therapies used as an ingredient in the study topical.\n* Contraindication to performing skin shave biopsies in the area to be biopsied.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05734703', 'briefTitle': 'Skin Rejuvenation With Topical Extract and Other Nutraceuticals', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Medical Life Care Planners, LLC'}, 'officialTitle': 'Skin Rejuvenation Using Topical Hemp-based Extract and Other Nutraceuticals', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Skin Antiaging Effects'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Standard Topical Daily Dose', 'description': "Only one arm in the study.
