In recent years, Centella asiatica extract has become a focus ingredient in the global cosmetics and pharmaceutical fields due to its multiple skin care effects and process innovation. From traditional herbal medicine to modern high-value-added products, the application value of Centella asiatica extract has been continuously explored, and its market potential has attracted much attention.
● Process innovation: efficient purification and green production
The preparation process of Centella asiatica extract has undergone an upgrade from traditional extraction to modern membrane separation technology. The modern plant extraction production line adopts a membrane separation system, and finally obtains high-purity Centella asiatica total glycosides through the process of “extract → separation → concentration → drying → crushing”. This process has the following advantages:
1.Efficient impurity removal: Membrane technology can remove impurities such as macromolecular tannins, pectin, and microorganisms, and improve product purity and stability.
2.Environmental protection and energy saving: The pure physical separation process has no phase change and no pollutant emissions, which meets the green production standards.
3.Automated control: Closed operation reduces manual intervention, ensures hygiene and safety, and reduces labor intensity.
4.Compared with traditional processes, modern technology increases the yield of Centella asiatica glycosides by about 30%, and is more suitable for pharmaceutical-grade production needs.
● Core efficacy: from skin repair to disease intervention
The core active ingredients of Centella asiatica extract are triterpenoid compounds (such as asiaticoside and madecassoside), and its efficacy covers two major areas: skin care and medical treatment:
1. Skin Care Field
Barrier Repair: Promote the synthesis of collagen and fibronectin, accelerate wound healing, and improve sunburn and postoperative scars.
Anti-Inflammatory And Antioxidant: Inhibit inflammatory mediators and free radicals, relieve sensitive skin problems, and delay skin aging.
Whitening And Firming: Reduce melanin production by inhibiting tyrosinase activity, while strengthening the connection between the epidermis and dermis, and improving relaxation.
2. Medical Field
Clearing Heat And Removing Dampness: Traditional Chinese medicine is used to treat jaundice, heatstroke diarrhea and urinary system inflammation.
Chronic Disease Prevention And Treatment: Clinical studies have shown that Centella asiatica extract has potential in regulating blood sugar, protecting cardiovascular and anti-Alzheimer’s disease.
Trauma Care: Standardized extracts (containing 40%-70% asiaticoside) are made into suppositories, injections, etc. for burns and postoperative repair.
● Application potential: multi-field expansion and market prospects
1. Cosmetic Innovation
With the popularity of the “CICA” (scar removal) concept, the combination of Centella asiatica extract and compound ingredients (such as madecassoside + asiatic acid) has become a trend. Korean and European and American brands are developing special products for sensitive skin and stretch marks.
2. Pharmaceutical Development
Studies have shown that asiatic acid and madecassoside have intervention effects on neurodegenerative diseases and liver diseases, and may promote the development of related new drugs in the future.
3. Health Industry Extension
Many companies around the world have deployed high-purity extraction of total glycosides and madecassoside (concentration of 80%-90%) of Centella asiatica to meet the needs of functional foods and health products.
● Future Outlook
The market size of Centella asiatica extract is expected to grow at an average annual rate of 12%. Its dual attributes of “natural + efficacy” are in line with consumers’ pursuit of safe and efficient ingredients. With the standardization of processes and the deepening of clinical research, this ancient herb is expected to open a new chapter in the fields of anti-aging medicine, medical beauty restoration and chronic disease management.
