Asiaticoside
INCI: asiaticoside
Asiaticoside is Centella asiatica’s flagship triterpene saponin, with the strongest published record for stimulating collagen synthesis and wound contraction. It is the reference compound for "cica" repair claims and the reason centella appears in scar and post-procedure care. Purified asiaticoside at 0.05–0.5% (or standardised extract equivalents) supports healing, firmness of recovering skin, and reduction of blemish scarring. The INCI "-2" suffix denotes a technical nomenclature variant, not a modified molecule. Best deployed in calming and repair serums alongside its three sister actives and barrier lipids.
