This review of 22 studies found that andiroba oil reduced inflammation and improved wound healing by decreasing immune cell buildup, boosting the body's natural repair processes (like fibroblast and collagen production), and reducing swelling and pain. Most research was done in lab and animal studies between 2005-2021, so human skin results aren't fully established yet.

Researchers systematically reviewed 22 published studies across 13 databases, looking at lab, animal, and clinical research on how andiroba oil affects inflammation and wound healing. Two independent reviewers screened all studies to ensure quality.
