Summary

This study tested a cream made from andaliman fruit extract on 40 adults with seborrheic keratosis, harmless skin growths on the face. Participants applied the cream daily for 12 weeks, and researchers checked for changes in the growths using a special camera. The goal was to see if this natural cream could safely improve the appearance of these bumps.
