Abstract

On 32 patients with atopic dermatitis and xerodermawe investigated the efficacy and safety of skin care products-HIBA Lotion® and HIBA Cream® each containing Aomori HIBA oil and Aomori HIBA distilled water-which are Thujopsis dolabrata var. hondae extracts. The natural plant extract is a cosmetic material obtained by steam distillation from the woody portion of Thujopsis dolabrata var. hondae. After 2 weeks of topical application, the products were found to be safe in all cases. The evaluation of the usefulness of the products was based on clinical findings, moisture level in the horny layer, and morphological observation of horny cells. The result of this study indicated that the two skin care products containing extracts of Thujopsis dolabrata var. hondae were quite safe in clinical application for cutaneous manifestations of dry skin and that they could improve skin symptoms.
