Allantoin is a nitrogenous compound found in nature that can also be created in a lab. Many companies use it as a skin-conditioning agent in their products. It may be derived from animals or plants and has many applications, including treatment of dry skin and wound healing. Correct procedures for application must be followed carefully to avoid potential side effects. Although the compound’s use carries the risk of an adverse reaction, the majority of people use it safely. The cosmetics industry uses the compound in moisturizing lotions, where it increases the water content of the cells and boosts skin peeling to eliminate outer layers of dead skin. This bolsters the smoothness of the skin, boosts cell propagation, and aids wound healing processes. Allantoin is a keratolytic, an agent that initiates the shedding of the outer layer of skin, which could include warts or fungi.
