THERE ARE TEN PAGES OF DESCRIPTION ONLY
Title: Botanical Compositions
Technical specifications The disclosure relates to the use of compositions comprising of specific botanical ingredients and combinations thereof, in a topical formulation for the control and treatment of acne vulgaris, reduction of excessive sebum production and reduction of skin inflammation.
Background One of the most common skin conditions that effect individuals between the ages of 15 and 45 years of age, is acne vulgaris. There is no specific ethnicity or genetic phenotype that has a significant characteristic advantage over the control and elimination of this skin disorder. Consequently, this acne vulgaris affects both sexes although, male hormones have been shown to exacerbate the condition. Collectively, this is a prominent and leading problem on a global scale. Acne vulgaris is a skin malady that results in either an obstruction of the sebaceous follicle glands, or an excessive overproduction of sebum by glands in skin.
Furthermore, the sebum is used as a food source for the growth of the bacterium called Propionibacteriumacnes, also known as Cutibacteriumacnes. In addition, skin obstructions result in the formation of whiteheads (where the follicle is blocked, and the skin surface is sealed) or blackhead comedones (where the skin is flared and turns black due to the presence of melanin). This collectively contributes and causes redness and inflammatory lesions in the skin. For example, the trapped sebum in the skin supports the growth for bacterial P. acnes. This is because it supportively creates a provision of anaerobic microenvironment for P. acnes to reside and grow in, due to the lack of oxygen, and pro-inflammatory mediators. Consequently, the formation of acne vulgaris results. This is reflective on an individual's skin.
Subsequent years of research, the inventors have identified for the first time, a combination of natural botanical extracts, oils, or conditioned water from the Callistemon species, in specific, Callistemon viminalis, also known as Melaleuca viminalis, and combinations therefore, with selected ingredients, is an outstanding treatment of acne vulgaris.
The Callistemon viminalis is an evergreen shrub, or small tree that belongs to the myrtle family with species frequently known as the weeping or crimson bottlebrush, Melaleuca viminalis or Myrtaceae.
The inventors have identified that the essential oils possess properties that behave as antimicrobials, with anti-inflammatory aspects against P.acnes. In fact, in China, the Callistemon species, chiefly C. viminalis is used in traditional Chinese medicine for treating haemorrhoids.
The biological activity of an essential oil is not usually ascribed to a single constituent however, it is rather about the synergistic properties of the phyto-complex combinations. Moreover, its chemical complexity donates to its biological actions since each constituent of the phyto-complex contribute towards the overall activity or can modulate the effects of the other constituents.
The Callistemon species has lanceolate leaves and a characteristic that reflects a 'bottlebrush' shaped flower spikes with protuberant red stamens, hence, commonly named bottlebrush. One of the most cultivated members of this genus is C. citrinus, usually identified as Crimson or Lemon Bottlebrush. The callistemon species produce essential oils. In folk medicine, Callistemon is well recognized for its insecticidal, as well as its anti-cough and anti-bronchitis activities. However, its effect on acne remains unknown and totally unexplored. This invention has identified for the first time, that the applied Callistemon total essential oils, water or total extract has potent anti-acne, anti-inflammatory, and anti proliferative activities, against p. acne.
The medicinal properties of Callistemon viminalis have been used traditionally used for hundreds of years by several different cultures around the world, for various herbal medicine applications. Numerous studies have shown that Callistemoncan modulate numerous targets such as cytokines, enzymes, growth factor receptors, transcription factors, and genes that regulate cellular apoptosis. These are several-fold and include relief of inflammatory conditions, digestive disorders, arthritic and skin conditions, cancers, and neurodegeneration, to name a few.
Succeeding years of research, the inventors have identified for the first time that Callistemon viminalis and its chemical signature and characteristic difference can be used for specific topical applications. The main molecular difference is a its expression of a high amount of the active ingredients that influence p. acnes.
In an embodiment the inventors have discovered and demonstrated the use of Callistemon viminalis total extract, oil or water has a minimum inhibitory concentration activity and anti-microbial activities against Propionibacteriumacnes (P. acnes).
In an embodiment the inventors have also demonstrated that using Callistemon viminalis prepared total extracts (entire plant extract) and oils prepared have superior minimum inhibitory concentration activity and anti-microbial activities against P. acnes, compared to antibiotics.
In another embodiment the inventors have discovered and demonstrated that the Callistemon viminalis total extract, oil or water can be used in topical applications for the treatment of acne vulgaris.
In yet another embodiment the inventors have discovered and demonstrated that when Callistemon viminalis total extract is prepared alone, or its oil are greater and more efficacious in inhibiting the growth of P. acnes.
In an additional embodiment the inventors have discovered that the Callistemon viminalisprepared total plant extract, oil or water have microbial inhibitory activity and demonstrated that the Callistemon viminalis total plant extract or oils are superior in the treatment of acne vulgaris.
In another additional embodiment the inventors have compared the Callistemon viminalis plant extract, oil and water using the minimum bactericidal concentration methodology and demonstrated that the Callistemon viminalis extract, oil and water can inhibit the growth of P. acnes and colony forming units (CFU) by the killing of P. acnes.
Based on the current evidence there is an immense advantage and potential of using the Callistemon viminalis total extract (TA), Callistemon viminalis oil or water of Callistemon viminalis for the development of cosmetic products to eliminate P. acnes and the treatment of acne vulgaris. This natural formulation is safer for the consumer, compared to chemical-based formulations that can have detrimental effects on people particularly the growing bodies of teenagers, when their compositions contain harsh and toxic endocrine disrupting chemicals.
This discovery has been translated into the innovation by the formulation of a composition that includes the total extract or its oil or water from Callistemon viminalis for use in topical applications in the form of creams, oils, emulsions, gels, ointments, pomades, soaps, lotions, serums, skin conditioners, skin toner, skin cleansers, for the treatment of acne vulgaris. Hence, in order to solve the disadvantage of the prior art, the object of a preferred embodiment of the present invention is to provide a safer, non toxic composition that clears acne.
In an embodiment the inventors have identified a composition comprising of a combination of the said Callistemon viminalisprepared TA or oil that stop the growth of P. acnes is also effective against sebum control and the calming of inflammation.
The invention is a result from years of research to identify herbal (natural) medicines that possess anti inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties that can be incorporated into cosmeceutical products for topical application for the control and treatment of acne vulgaris.
Although there are several available treatments for acne vulgaris, they are insufficient and don't address the specific requirements that are dependent on the type of clinical lesion of the skin. For example, topical retinoids are generally used against comedone induced acne. Others such as hormonal therapies or the use of isotretinoin are also readily prescribed as acne treatments. Topical antibiotics such as erythromycin, tetracycline or topical benzoyl peroxide are also readily used. However, these can potentially have devastating anatomical skin consequences resulting in severe skin dryness, induce skin flaking and shedding, systemic toxic effects, and psychological consequences. Other methods include the use of surgical treatments such as photodynamic therapy (PDT), cryotherapy or microdermabrasion.
Another common method is the use of alpha hydroxyl acids which make skin worse before having any beneficial effect. The use of sodium lactate, boric acid is also readily used; however, these are less desirable since they cause itching and redness on sensitive skin. Triclosan is also found in many well known products. This is a well-known endocrine disrupting chemical (EDC) that is readily used in many different personal and skincare products and has severe consequences. In fact, the Food and Drug Administration of the United States has banned the use of this constituent in such applications.
Collectively, although these methodologies and ingredients are readily available in products, and they evidently have disadvantages, do not effectively have a rapid onset for the control of acne, or are unsafe for the consumer.
There is consequently a need for desirable ingredients that can provide effective acne management and treatment, that is safe, inexpensive to manufacture and can be applied across a broad range of different skin types.
The inventors have identified that there are obvious advantages and usefulness in using the inventive combinatorial composition in this innovative acne skin treatment. In the first instance, the composition does not cause any side effects. In addition, when applied, it works substantially faster than other acne treatments compositions.
Furthermore, its incorporation is optimised with a combination comprised of other natural ingredients from plants used in traditional medicine and specific selected ingredients.
Moreover, the inventive composition is not restricted in its application because it can be used for skin toning, the calming of skin inflammation; provide moisture for dry skin and as is most effective as an acne vulgaris treatment.
Accordingly, it is an object of the invention to provide a new treatment composition for skin acne vulgaris.
In an embodiment an objective of the invention is to provide an improved skin formulation, which, when applied, works quickly, safely and without any side effects.
The advantages of the invention are clear and in part contain features, properties and related elements which are exemplified in the following disclosure and the scope of the invention and will be indicated in the claims.
The inventors have formulated several compositions of dermatological creams using a specific combination of natural ingredients and selected ingredients in the form of a water-in-oil complex emulsion/suspension, gels or lotions.
The inventors consider that never has such a combination been formulated to help restore and promote natural health maintenance of the skin.
The inventors also consider that the inventive acne formulation is anti-inflammatory and effective to treat skin acne, reduction of redness and control of skin flare ups.
The topical anti-acne composition of the invention comprises and provides a further essential and immediate improvement in skin feel and appearance. It further provides useful visual improvements in skin appearance or conditions following multiple topical applications.
In a further embodiment, the routine includes applying the composition to the surface of the skin in need thereof a safe and effective amount of the said topical composition. The said composition is sufficient to significantly generate a positive benefit on the outlook of skin appearance.

Example 1 - A cream with a composition comprising of oils from Callistemon viminalis and curcuma longa, curcuma xanthorrhiza, curcuma longa, vitellariaparadoxa, salix alba, clove bud oil, camellia sinensis, melaleuca alternifolia, thymus quinquecostatus, niacinamide, salicylic acid, and N-Acetylcysteine.
Size - Net weight 30 grams / 0.7 FL. OZ
Ingredients - Purified water, Vitellariaparadoxa,Shea butter, cetereayl alcohol, Callistemon viminalis oil, Curcuma xanthorrhizaoil, Salix alba, niacinamide, salicylic acid, Clove bud oil, Camelliasinensis, Melaleuca alternfolia, Thymus quinquecostatus, N-Acetylcysteine.
Example 2 - A group of teenagers with acne were selected to use the formulation as a topical cream to clear their skin and be free of acne. This was achieved using a protocol of a double-blind, placebo controlled, randomized study for assessing the effect of the present composition invention comprising ingredients in a topical cream and combinations thereof for relieving acne vulgaris and skin inflammation.
The objectives were to assess the effect of the callistemon total extract in a topical cream formulation on symptoms of acne vulgaris using thirty-three (33) individuals (16 females and 14 males), that suffer from acne vulgaris. The cream contained oil, water and total extract, derivatives, and combinations thereof The criteria of this study included individuals suffering from moderate and severe acne vulgaris levels, ranging from the ages of 19-28 years of age. Control creams were also used, and these did not contain any active constituents. The voluntary participants in this study were willing to commit to the application of topical applications of the cream and to complete evaluation and study visits (informed consent). They also agreed not to change the type of creams or increase the frequency of the current application or change or alter any therapies outside the nominated cream application.
Individuals not eligible to be enrolled into this protocol were those that were pregnant or nursing, or of childbearing potential and not practicing an effective means of birth control. Furthermore, exclusions included those having evidence of significant, haematological, endocrine, cardiovascular, coronary, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, or neurological diseases (questionnaire). In addition, individuals with thyroid complications, we excluded, and individuals that suffered from allergies. Individuals applied the topical cream to affected areas of the skin containing acne vulgaris symptoms and subsequently assessed. The cream was applied daily for a duration of 120 hours (5 days).
The study outcomes demonstrated that individuals tolerated the composition well with no adverse reactions. The statistics (p=0.05) demonstrated that the topical cream used resulted in beneficial outcomes in eliminating acne vulgaris. Changes were witnessed on their skin with symptoms totally reduced on day 2 and the elimination of acne removed by day 5. Results also demonstrated that the topical also minimised inflammatory lesions and sebum production, compared to the placebo control. Collectively the topical cream relieved, reduced and eliminated acne vulgaris. Thus, the present invention (i.e., cream formulation), comprising essentially of Callistemon extract and combinations is effective in the reduction and removal of acne according to the protocol. Subjects were subsequently followed up for 2 weeks to ensure safety and beneficial skin outcomes were maintained.
