Hamamelis virginiana cream for medicinal use

Hamamelis virginiana cream is a topical preparation made from the bark of the witch hazel plant, which is known for its astringent and anti-inflammatory properties.

It is commonly used in herbalism to soothe irritated skin, reduce redness, and promote healing. The cream is often applied to treat conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and minor skin abrasions. Its ability to tighten tissues and control excess oil makes it beneficial for acne-prone skin as well.

In traditional herbal medicine, it is also used to support wound healing and reduce swelling.
