What does it do?

Onion extract is a plant-derived ingredient extracted from onions, used in dermatological medicines for the purpose of wound healing and scar improvement. This ingredient helps promote skin regeneration and contributes to reducing scar tissue formation.

Onion extract reduces the skin's inflammatory response and regulates collagen production, thereby promoting tissue regeneration at the wound site. As a result, scars become less prominent, and the skin heals more smoothly.
