Past and Current Prospectives of Herbal Product for Skin Care

Abstract

The treatment of skin ageing is vital in controlling numerous skin problems, especially in the elderly, which is a welcome side effect. Consumer demand for non-invasive products with fewer harmful effects than those currently on the market has led to a rapid surge in the development of new dermocosmetics. Herbal-derived formulations and natural compounds from plants have gained popularity because to the wide range of effective, non-toxic active ingredients they contain, many of which target different parts of the skin's ageing signalling pathways. The purpose of this review was, therefore, to identify the most current developments in the study of herbal-derived products, such as herbal formulations and isolated components with skin anti-aging effects. Clinical trials with available pharmacodynamics data support the protective effects of herbal-derived products used to treat, prevent, or control the ageing of human skin, and these investigations assessed the biological effects of these products in in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo settings.
