Abstract

Enhanced Efficacy and Bioavailability of Skin-Care Ingredients Using Liposome and Nano-liposome Technology

Highlights

  • The word “bioavailability” can be defined as the extent to which a pharmaceutical active compound or a nourishing factor or a cosmetic product reaches its site of action or can enter a biological fluid such as blood

  • Bioavailability of a pharmaceutical compound is largely determined by the properties of the dosage form, which partially depend on its design and formulation, rather than by the drug’s physicochemical properties, which determine drug’s absorption potential [1]

  • It has been postulated that nanotechnology can improve the bioavailability of skin care products including cosmetic formulations [2]

Summary

Mini Review

Enhanced Efficacy and Bioavailability of Skin-Care Ingredients Using Liposome and Nano-liposome. Due to its large surface area, skin is susceptible to a variety of conditions including acne, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, rashes, cellulitis and rosacea. External factors such as skin care products, exogenous chemicals, and the weather can influence the skin from outside while the food and medicines consumed by individuals can lead to the development of skin disorders from inside the body. An efficient strategy to enhance the efficacy of skin care products and improve their bioavailability and provide longlasting effect is employment of encapsulation systems such as liposomes and nano liposomes.
