• Topical application of glyceryl glucoside significantly increased AQP3 mRNA levels and reduced transepidermal water loss compared with vehicle-controlled areas in volunteer subjects.

  Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 2012

• Topical oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions containing glyceryl glucoside, natural moisturizing factors, and ceramide significantly improved skin hydration and barrier function while reducing visible dryness and tactile roughness in subjects with very dry skin compared to untreated sites and vehicles.

  The Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology, 2012

• The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol.

  Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020

• Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant.

  International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001

• Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.

  Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2012

• Topical 40% urea cream achieved improvement in less time and showed superiority over 12% ammonium lactate lotion in skin roughness, fissure reduction, thickness, and dryness at day 14 in patients treated for moderate to severe xerosis.

  American Journal of Clinical Dermatology, 2002

• Topical treatment with K101 achieved a significantly higher mycological cure rate compared to placebo in patients with ≤50% nail involvement (27.2% vs 10.4%), while showing early visible improvements in nail appearance and no safety issues.

  Mycoses, 2012

• A combination cream of stimu-tex AS and saccharide isomerate reduced erythema, increased skin capacitance, and reduced transepidermal water loss compared to placebo in 20 subjects after fractional CO2 laser procedure without causing serious adverse events.

  Lasers in Medical Science, 2025

• A skin barrier restoring cream with shea butter, silkflo, and vitamin E increased type I procollagen synthesis, enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity, decreased reactive oxygen species generation, and promoted hyaluronic acid production in H2O2-stimulated human keratinocyte cells compared to untreated cells.

  International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2025

• Specially neutralized 12% lactate lotion provided significantly greater reductions in xerosis severity scores compared with a nonlactated emollient lotion and a 5% lactic acid lotion during the post-treatment regression period in sixty patients with moderate to severe xerosis.

  Archives of Dermatology, 1983

• Long-pulsed alexandrite laser achieved a significantly greater mean percent reduction in pigmentation area compared to topical tretinoin-ammonium lactate (25.7% versus 18.3%) in 15 patients with bilateral axillary acanthosis nigricans over 14 weeks.

  Caspian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2016

• Topical application of 5% aqueous lactate lotion twice a day for 1 year achieved a 90-100% reduction in inflammatory lesions in 40.9% of patients and in non-inflammatory lesions in 22.7% of patients, with most patients showing significant reduction in lesion counts.
