Product Overview


Botanical Source & Physical Traits

Gotu Kola Extract is derived from the whole plant of Centella asiatica L.—a medicinal herb used in TCM and Ayurveda for millennia, often called the “queen of skin care.” Our extract is a fine white powder with a characteristic aroma, free of discoloration and clumps, making it ideal for high-end cosmetic and supplement formulations.


Key Active Components

The extract’s skin and health benefits are driven by triterpenoids, quantified via HPLC:

Madecassoside: ≥90% (our latest batch tested at 93.33%—supports wound healing and skin repair).

Asiaticoside: 3%–95% (enhances collagen synthesis).

Total Triterpenes: 2%–90% (includes asiatic acid and madecassic acid, which drive anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects).

The extract’s CAS numbers include 84696-21-9, 34540-22-2, and 16830-15-2, confirming its chemical identity.

Product Benefits


Skin Hydration & Barrier Repair

Bioactive compounds (triterpenoid saponins, flavonoids, essential amino acids) repair the skin’s protective barrier, reducing transdermal water loss. This increases stratum corneum moisture, leaving skin plump, hydrated, and less prone to dryness or sensitivity.


Scar & Wound Healing

Asiaticoside stimulates collagen production and new blood vessel formation, accelerating wound closure and reducing scar tissue formation. It is effective for treating acne scars, surgical scars, and minor cuts/burns.


Anti-Inflammatory & Antibacterial Protection

Asiatic acid and madecassic acid acidify plant cell cytoplasm, inhibiting mold, yeast, and harmful bacteria (e.g., acne-causing Propionibacterium acnes). This makes the extract ideal for acne-prone skin products and natural formulations requiring antibacterial support.


Antioxidant & Anti-Aging Effects

Triterpenoids (asiatic acid, madecassoside) activate SOD and GPX enzymes and stimulate Nrf2 (a key antioxidant pathway), neutralizing free radicals. This fades melanin pigmentation, improves skin blood circulation, and accelerates skin cell regeneration—reducing wrinkles and brightening skin tone.


Skin Cleansing & Detox

In Ayurvedic medicine, Gotu Kola is valued for its detox properties. It removes skin toxins (linked to acne, dullness) and has astringent effects, controlling excess oil production and keeping pores clean—preventing breakouts.


Usage


Cosmetic Formulations

Anti-Aging Products: Added to serums, creams, and masks to reduce wrinkles, improve elasticity, and brighten skin.

Scar Repair Products: Used in gels and ointments for acne scars, stretch marks, and post-surgical scars.

Acne Care: Formulated into cleansers, toners, and spot treatments to fight bacteria and reduce inflammation.

Sensitive/Dry Skin Care: Blended into moisturizers and lotions to repair the skin barrier and boost hydration.


Health Supplements

Available in capsules or powders to support skin health from within—ideal for individuals with dry, sensitive skin or scarring. It may also support joint health by reducing inflammation.

Gotu Kola Extract


1. Hydrates Skin

The bioactive ingredients in gotu kola such as triterpenoid saponins, triterpenic steroids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds and essential amino acids,help repair the skin barrier and prevent transdermal water loss. As the moisture content of the stratum corneum increases, your skin looks plump, hydrated, and healthy.

2. Rich In Antioxidants

Oxidative stress is a major cause of premature skin aging and various skin diseases. 

Studies have shown that triterpenoids such as Asiatic acid, madecassoside and madecassic acid contained in gotu kola can effectively increase SOD and GPX enzymes, activate Nrf2, and thus enhance antioxidant activity.

3. Used For Skin Cleansing

According to Ayurvedic science, Gotu kola has amazing detoxification properties. It cleans your skin and removes harmful toxins known to cause a variety of skin conditions. In addition, its astringency can remove excess oil from the face and keep pores clean.
