Astaxanthin (ASX), a xanthophyll carotenoid derived from microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, mitigating skin photoaging and age-related skin diseases by its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in animal studies. Objective: The aim was to systematically evaluate if ASX applications have anti-ageing effects in humans.

Nine randomised, controlled human studies assessed oral ASX effects and two open-label, prospective studies evaluated topical, oraltopical ASX effects on skin ageing
