The most frequent dermatological concern and a multisystem degenerative process is skin aging. Age related factors may be either due to declining physiological functions (intrinsic aging) or may be due to environmental factors such as pollution, sun exposure, smoking, stress etc. (extrinsic aging). An aged skin displays pigmented lesions, patchy hypopigmentations, actinic keratoses, fragility, laxity and wrinkles. Skin aging mechanisms involve biochemical changes in collagen, elastin and connective tissues, thereby resulting in a thin, dry, less elastic, wrinkled skin. In the recent years, herbals are largely preferred to synthetic drugs regarding to their traditional use as they help in providing an efficient, low toxicity and cost impressive product. Though a number of traditional plants are available, novel delivery systems need to be integrated so that the efficacy and cost effectiveness of the therapy can be optimized. Functional herbal active constituents and innovative novel formulations are driving the cosmetic industry. This present review put forward extensively on herbs appraisal for skin aging treatment. It also highlights the benefits of herbals and their role in impeding aging of skin. Some commercial branded herbal anti-aging cosmeceuticals and a few novel anti-aging herbal formulations available in the market are also reviewed here.

Abstract


The most frequent dermatological concern and a multisystem degenerative process is skin aging. Age related factors may be either due to declining physiological functions (intrinsic aging) or may be due to environmental factors such as pollution, sun exposure, smoking, stress etc. (extrinsic aging). An aged skin displays pigmented lesions, patchy hypopigmentations, actinic keratoses, fragility, laxity and wrinkles. Skin aging mechanisms involve biochemical changes in collagen, elastin and connective tissues, thereby resulting in a thin, dry, less elastic, wrinkled skin. In the recent years, herbals are largely preferred to synthetic drugs regarding to their traditional use as they help in providing an efficient, low toxicity and cost impressive product. Though a number of traditional plants are available, novel delivery systems need to be integrated so that the efficacy and cost effectiveness of the therapy can be optimized. Functional herbal active constituents and innovative novel formulations are driving the cosmetic industry. This present review put forward extensively on herbs appraisal for skin aging treatment. It also highlights the benefits of herbals and their role in impeding aging of skin. Some commercial branded herbal anti-aging cosmeceuticals and a few novel anti-aging herbal formulations available in the market are also reviewed here.
