Powerful Plant Extract Blend: The Ultimate Solution for Acne
A recent study published in Pharmaceutics has found that a plant-derived formula called FRO has potent antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects against Cutibacterium acnes (CA), the bacterium responsible for acne. The formula, which is a mixture of fermentation of Rhus verniciflua (RV) and Orostachys japonicus (OJ) extracts, demonstrated significant efficacy in inhibiting CA growth, reducing sebum production, and neutralizing reactive oxygen species (ROS) associated with acne. These findings suggest that FRO could serve as a safe, natural, and cost-effective alternative to conventional acne therapies, offering potential benefits for both treating and preventing acne.
