The skin is the body's largest organ and plays a crucial role in maintaining our overall health and well-being. Advances in technology have provided a wealth of new tools and techniques for studying and treating skin conditions, from innovative imaging devices to novel drug delivery systems.
As we continue to further our understanding of the skin, non-invasive instruments, and imaging devices are becoming increasingly important. Through this collection, we are interested in learning about these tools and their role in the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of skin disorders.
Our goal is to act as a source of information for professionals and researchers in all aspects of skin disorders and skin aging. We hope that this collection highlights the latest developments in understanding these devices for studying, or treating, the skin and its appendages, as well as exploring the methodologies for evaluating their efficacy and safety and dermatological formulations.
We are especially interested in methods and models for assessing therapeutic efficacy; dermal drug delivery and formulation methods circumventing the epithelial barrier.
This Research Topic welcomes the submission of all article types accepted in this section including original research, reviews, perspectives, and case reports on basic and clinical research, technological innovation, and transformative applications. We are interested in a broad range of themes, such as:
• Skin imaging analysis (ultrasound, microscopy, etc...);
• Novel technological devices used for dermal application (e.g., microneedles, nanofibers, etc...);
• Analysis of skin by non-invasive instruments;
• Skin penetration;
• Devices associated with therapies, with a special focus on dermatitis and skin rejuvenation;
• Leveraging cutting-edge technologies in skin research, such as single-cell RNA sequencing, spatial omics technologies, and in vivo clinical imaging;
• Formulation and delivery methods for targeted therapies;
• Clinical trial studies that investigate the efficacy and safety of dermatological devices.
