Skin care formulations use gotu kola for its ability to boost collagen and decrease inflammation. As with many plant-based compounds, you're most likely to find a bioactive level of gotu kola (which may be listed as centella asiatica) in organic or all-natural product lines., such as this gotu kola product.
Ingredients: Extracts of the Ayurvedic herbs Gotu kola and Psoralea corylifolia, traditionally used, in combination with vitamin D, to even the skin tone and improve the appearance in certain skin conditions, including vitiligo.
It is recommended to use with oral doses of Gingko biloba Herbal Extract, as Gingko biloba has been clinically proven to improve the appearance of leukoderma (vitiligo patches).
Ingredients: 10 % of Gotu kola and Psoralea corylifolia extracts in vege cream or ointment base.
In a 2012 study, researchers applied concentrate of centella asiatica to the skin of rats with open wounds and found that the formulation inhibited bacterial growth, fueled the growth of new skin cells and increased skin "tensile strength" and resilience.
