Chitosan, a cationic polysaccharide, shows promise in aesthetic dermatology for skin barrier support, post-procedure recovery, acne, pigmentary disorders, and scalp applications.

In scalp applications, microneedling with topical chitosan improved hair density similarly to minoxidil in small studies. Despite its potential, the variability in formulations and small study sizes limit the generalizability of these findings, highlighting the need for larger, standardized clinical trials to better define chitosan's role in aesthetic practices.
