New Research Says Topically Applied L-Carnitine Effective in Treating Oily Skin

But Dr. Joshua Fox, founder and director of New York & New Jersey based Advanced Dermatology P.C., wants those dealing with an oily skin condition to know about promising new research which shows that when applied topically, L-Carnitine, an amino acid produced naturally in the body, is effective in treating oily skin. “The prospect of using a compound found naturally in the body is good news for those who require treatment for their oily skin condition,” reports Dr. Fox.

The study, conducted by Beiersdorf AG, Research and Development, Skin Research in Hamburg, Germany, aimed to identify an active substance to reduce sebum production by regulating fat metabolism in a natural way. The results were reported by the National Institute of Health’s MedLine Plus. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22360332
