Abstract

KCPP Complex, from the extracts of Phragmites kharka and Poria cocos, has been shown to help skin and skincells in effectively deal with external negative impacts. KCPP Complex has potent anti-inflammatory activity after UVirradiation, hyperosmotic stress and phototoxic reactions and protects against the loss of cell viability after phototoxicreactions. Anti-inflammatory activity was initially proven in vitro, and subsequently in vivo. The in vivo studies showed anaccelerated reduction in UV-induced erythema.
