Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how an oral herbal supplementation influences facial skin elasticity and facial hydration as well as markers of photoaging (erythema and pigmentation).

Detailed description

Skin is the largest organ of the body and skin aging represents a primary indicator of the aging process in the body. Photoaging is among the most crucial factors that cause skin aging damage. Photoaged skin is primarily induced by prolonged exposure to ultraviolet radiation leading to the appearance of increased skin pigmentation, reduced elasticity, and pronounced wrinkles. There has been an increasing recognition of the influence of nutrition on skin health with dietary elements emerging as a viable alternative approach to preventing photoaging. The aim of this study is to understand how oral supplementation impacts photoaged skin, facial hydration, and facial elasticity.
