Drug Delivery to Hair Follicles

The document discussed the potential of hair follicles as a target for drug delivery, highlighting their unique anatomical and physiological properties that make them suitable for localized treatment. The authors reviewed various methods and technologies for delivering drugs directly to hair follicles, including nanoparticles, liposomes, and microneedles. They emphasized the advantages of targeting hair follicles, such as improved drug absorption and reduced systemic side effects. The paper concluded that while significant progress had been made, further research was needed to optimize these delivery systems and fully understand their long-term effects and safety.
