The Role Of Dimethylaminoethanol In Cosmetic Dermatology
A placebo-controlled trial has shown that 3% DMAE facial gel is safe and effective in reducing forehead lines and periorbital wrinkles, improving lip shape and fullness, and enhancing the overall appearance of aging skin, with its benefits including potential anti-inflammatory effects and increased skin firmness, though further studies are needed to fully understand its mechanisms and compare its efficacy with other skincare regimens.

Efficacy of a Topical Dimethylaminoethanol and L-Ascorbic Acid Combination
This review focuses on the efficacy of 2-dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE) in skincare, emphasizing its precursor role to acetylcholine and its potential in regulating cellular processes. A placebo-controlled trial has shown that a 3% DMAE facial gel significantly reduces forehead lines and periorbital wrinkles, improves lip shape and fullness, and enhances the overall appearance of aging skin without adverse effects. Long-term use of up to one year is deemed safe. DMAE also exhibits moderate anti-inflammatory properties and increases skin firmness, indicating its involvement in acetylcholine-mediated skin functions. Further research is necessary to compare DMAE's effectiveness with other skincare treatments.
