Skin Diseases Mechanisms and Treatments

Abstract

Skin diseases encompass various conditions that affect the skin, ranging from infections and inflammations to genetic disorders and malignancies. These diseases pose significant health challenges and profoundly impact the quality of life, leading to psychological and social consequences. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of skin diseases is critical for developing effective treatment strategies. In recent years, dietary antioxidants have garnered attention for their potential role in mitigating skin diseases by combating oxidative stress. This chapter aims to delve into the intricate mechanisms of prevalent skin diseases, review the current treatment modalities, and explore the role of dietary antioxidants in promoting skin health. By providing a comprehensive analysis of the existing scientific literature, this chapter offers valuable insights into the pathophysiology of skin diseases and the therapeutic potential of antioxidants.
