Abstract
This project is focused on finding a natural solution to Seborrheic Keratosis. Seborrheic Keratosis is a prevalent skin condition-- in about 75% of the population over the age of 50-- and has no current natural or cost effective treatment. If patients apply a mixture of frankincense essential oil in a castor carrier oil to seborrheic keratosis for the duration of one month, then the coloration and appearance of seborrheic keratosis will decrease. Participation in this experiment is completely voluntary and patient information will be kept confidential. In addition, a survey to eligible patients will be administered to determine the connection between Seborrheic Keratoses to family history and sun exposure.
