research Influence of massage and occlusion on the ex vivo skin penetration of rigid liposomes and invasomes
Massage increases how deep both rigid and flexible liposomes can go into skin, with flexible ones going deeper, and covering the skin (occlusion) helps rigid ones more.
research Microneedling dilates the follicular infundibulum and increases transfollicular absorption of liposomal sepia melanin
Microneedling helps increase the absorption of a melanin product into hair follicles, which may improve laser hair removal effectiveness.
research Related Topic: Drug Permeation Through Hair Follicles
Hair follicles are important for drug delivery through the skin, but better methods are needed to understand and improve this process.
research Effect of physical stimuli on hair follicle deposition of clobetasol-loaded Lipid Nanocarriers
NLCs with manual massage greatly improve clobetasol delivery to hair follicles.
research Caffeine’s Mechanisms of Action and Its Cosmetic Use
Caffeine in cosmetics may reduce cellulite, protect skin, and stimulate hair growth, but more research is needed on its use and effects.
research Antioxidants in dermatology
