Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The relationship between diet and skin health is an emerging area of research that has gained significant scientific interest. Nutritional intake plays a fundamental role in maintaining skin integrity, preventing premature aging, and modulating conditions such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis. A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients, antioxidants, and bioactive compounds can enhance skin hydration, elasticity, and barrier function, while poor dietary choices may contribute to oxidative stress, inflammation, and dermal deterioration. This Special Issue aims to explore the intricate links between nutrition and dermatology, shedding light on the molecular mechanisms, clinical applications, and dietary interventions that promote skin health. We welcome original research, reviews, and clinical studies that align with the journal’s scope, particularly those addressing the impact of dietary patterns, micronutrients, and nutraceuticals on dermatological outcomes.
Dr. Ilaria Proietti
Guest Editor
