How effective is Triphala for skin problems, and how should it be used? - #10639

Anonymously

I’ve been hearing about Triphala’s benefits for overall health, but I’m curious about its specific role in skincare. How effective is Triphala for skin problems, and how should it be used for the best results? From what I’ve read, Triphala contains powerful antioxidants that help detoxify the body, improve digestion, and promote glowing skin. It’s said to reduce acne, pigmentation, and even prevent premature aging. Does it work better when consumed internally, or should it be applied topically as a paste or mask for skin issues? I’m also curious about its dosage and application. If taken orally, how much Triphala should be consumed daily to improve skin health? If used as a topical treatment, should it be mixed with other ingredients like honey, yogurt, or rose water for better results? Another concern is about safety. Can using Triphala for skin problems cause dryness, irritation, or other side effects? Are there specific skin types or conditions for which it works best, such as oily or acne-prone skin? If anyone has used Triphala for skincare, I’d love to know your experience. Did it improve your skin texture or resolve specific concerns, and are there any tips for using it effectively?

Doctors’ responses

Triphala is highly regarded in Ayurveda for its detoxifying and antioxidant properties, which can benefit skin health by promoting a natural glow, reducing acne, and preventing premature aging. Triphala works effectively both internally and topically. Consuming 1-2 teaspoons of Triphala powder mixed with warm water daily can improve digestion, which in turn supports clear skin. For topical application, you can make a paste by mixing Triphala powder with ingredients like honey, rose water, or yogurt to apply directly to the skin to address issues like acne or pigmentation. As for safety, Triphala is generally well-tolerated, but sensitive skin types should do a patch test first to avoid dryness or irritation. Oily or acne-prone skin tends to benefit the most, as its natural astringent properties help balance oil production. Regular use, both internally and externally, may show visible improvements over a few weeks.
