Jung Min Park, Chae Jeong Han
Abstract
Pine pollen and propolis were currently used as an alternative medicine in the management of various ailments, whereas evidence supporting its improving effect on acne has yet to be fully demonstrated. This study was to compare the effects of propolis and pinepollen on acne skin. The study subjects were 30 adults with age 20-30 (propolis group, n=15; pine pollen group, n=15). Propolis group was offered propolis treatment and pine pollen group was treated with pine pollen pack that has been dissolved water once a week fortotal 10 times. After 10 weeks, moisture, and elasticity were significantly increased in both group (p<0.001). Stuff, papule and pustule were significantly decreased in both group (p<0.01). Also, sebum was significantly decreased after treatment in propolis group and pinepollen group (p<0.001). When compared to the propolis group, subjects in pine pollen group showed significant improvements inmoisture, sebum, elasticity and pustule (respectively, p<0.05). These result indicated that propolis and pine pollen treatment are potential and beneficial effects on acne skin, and pine pollen might be more effective than propolis for relief of acne.
