TLDR Personalized medicine and new technologies offer promising strategies for better skin disease treatments.
The editorial discusses the challenges and advancements in the prevention and treatment of skin diseases, emphasizing the need for personalized medicine. Current treatments often lack standardization and effectiveness, leading to suboptimal outcomes. Recent technological advances, such as network pharmacology and molecular docking, have improved drug discovery and understanding of wound healing mechanisms. Personalized approaches, including 3D biomaterials and nanofibers, offer promising strategies for targeted therapies. The use of natural compounds and monoclonal antibodies in dermatology is explored, highlighting both their potential benefits and associated risks. The editorial also notes the potential of natural products, like Periplaneta Americana extract, in promoting hair regeneration and treating alopecia, though further research is needed to fully understand their mechanisms and safety profiles.
