Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is a common dermatosis in children, that includes skin architecture defects, immune dysregulation, and changes of skin flora. Several new drugs have been found to reduce the severity of AD. Vitamin D is one of the new therapies that is still controversial.

In addition to direct and indirect DNA damage, UVR leads to a breakdown of collagen, resulting in enlarged pores, visible wrinkles, also uneven skin tones and pigmentations. Amniotic membrane stem cell (AMSC) can be a useful modality in cell regeneration.

Introduction: The use of postbiotics, which are defined as dead microorganisms and/or their components that provide health benefits to the target host, has been shown to reduce the severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) in several studies.
Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted in Pubmed, the Cochrane Library, Science Direct, Clinicaltrials.gov, and Google Scholar, covering the period from January 2012 to July 2022 in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline.
Background: It is expected that a combination of amniotic membrane stem cell metabolite product (AMSC-MP) and vitamin E after fractional CO laser as laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) will provide better effects in photoaging treatment as the combination reaches the target. This promises an option for photoaging therapy in the future.
Materials And Methods: Sixty women with photoaged skins were involved in this experimental study.
Photoaging is a complex biologic process that affects various layers of the skin with the major damage seen in the connective tissue of the dermis. Although rarely fatal, photoaging can significantly contribute to a loss of quality of life; therefore, it deserves attention. Researchers are continually searching for new compounds to develop rejuvenation therapies.
