The system was tested in models for skin barrier repair and androgenetic alopecia (AGA), showing effective skin repair and follicular targeting. The O/W-NE platform offers a promising strategy for treating skin diseases and developing animal models, with potential applications in epidermal therapy and regenerative medicine.
