Scientists at Northwestern University have developed a synthetic melanin cream that has the potential to heal sun damage and Chemical Burns. The cream mimics the natural melanin found in human skin and can be applied topically to accelerate wound healing. The synthetic melanin scavenges free radicals, which are produced by injured skin, and protects cells from damage caused by sun exposure and environmental toxins. The cream has undergone human trials and has been shown to be non-irritating to the skin. The research may provide treatment options for cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy in the future.
