This review analyzed research from 2005–2022 on madecassoside and asiaticoside, two active compounds from Centella asiatica (cica). The compounds showed multiple benefits in studies: wound healing, collagen production, skin hydration, anti-inflammatory effects, and antioxidant activity. However, this is a literature review summarizing other studies—not new experimental data—so results depend on the quality and size of the original research being reviewed.

The researchers reviewed published scientific studies on madecassoside and asiaticoside conducted between 2005 and 2022, compiling what those studies found about the compounds' effects on skin, inflammation, and other health markers.
