Mode Of Action Of Mukha Lepana

The drug penetration is higher on the face, and the efficacy of Mukhalepana is related to both its inherent potency and the ability of the drug to penetrate the skin.

The percutaneous absorption necessitates passage through the stratum corneum, epidermis, and papillary dermis and into the bloodstream and purifies the blood thereby helping to remove the toxins or dead cells from the face thereby nourishing the cells. This help to rectify the problem.
