Sea Buckthorn Oil has a long history of use in traditional medicine, particularly in Central Asia, Russia, and China, for promoting skin healing and treating wounds, which can include minor external bleeding. Traditional practitioners have applied the oil topically to accelerates wound healing, reduce inflammation, and support tissue regeneration. These uses are documented in ethnobotanical texts and some traditional Chinese medicine sources, where Sea Buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides) is valued for its rich content of vitamins (especially vitamin E and C), carotenoids, and essential fatty acids.

Scientific studies directly supporting Sea Buckthorn Oil for stopping or treating external bleeding are limited. Some laboratory and animal studies suggest the oil has wound healing and anti-inflammatory properties, which might indirectly support hemostasis by promoting faster closure and repair of wounds. However, these effects are not the same as direct hemostatic (bleeding-stopping) action. Therefore, while tradition strongly supports its use for wounds and skin injuries, robust clinical evidence specifically for control or treatment of external bleeding is lacking.

In summary, Sea Buckthorn Oil’s application for external bleeding is primarily based on traditional use for wound care, with some preclinical evidence for skin healing, but minimal direct scientific validation for hemostatic effects.
