Prevention and cure of dermatology disorders using herbal medications: summary

Abstract

The use of isolated plant components and herbal extracts in the treatment of wounds and skin conditions is growing. In recent years, numerous new herbal medications, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics have been produced to address a variety of skin disorders. We concentrate on herbal medications that underwent testing in well-controlled clinical trials or reliable preclinical investigations in this systematic review. Herbal biomedicines are designed to treat a variety of conditions, including atopic dermatitis (using St. John's wort, licorice, tormentil, bitter substances, and evening primrose), psoriasis (using araroba tree, lace flower, barberry bark, indigo, turmeric, olibanum, and St. John's wort), actinic keratosis (using birch bark and petty spurge), herpes simplex (using lemon balm, sage, and rhubarb), rosacea (using green tea, licorice, tormentil, and acne vulgaris) and acne vulgaris (using tea tree oil, green tea, and hop), or to enhance photoprotection (using green tea, Dyer's weed, cocoa tree, carotinoids, and licorice), aesthetic dermatology (using licorice, pine bark, and gotu kola), and wound healing (using birch bark and onion).
