Erosive pustular dermatosis is a rare and chronic inflammatory condition of the scalp which can be mistaken for cutaneous malignancy, precancerous lesions, dermatitis or pyoderma gangrenosum. The recurrent and resistant characteristics of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp pose a challenge to successful management and remission of the condition. The purpose of this case report is to provide management options and treatment recommendations for refractory cases of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp.

The continuous rise in skin cancer incidence highlights an imperative for improved skin cancer prevention. Topical calcipotriol-plus-5-fluorouracil (calcipotriol-plus-5-FU) immunotherapy effectively eliminates precancerous skin lesions and prevents squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in patients. However, its mechanism of action remains unclear.

Background: Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is widely recognized for its powerful antioxidant properties, sparking considerable interest in its application within skincare treatments. However, its inherently poor water solubility has posed a major challenge in formulating effective skincare products.
Methods: This research aimed to develop and evaluate a water-soluble CoQ10 serum by forming a complex with hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD).

Objective: Vitamin E, in the form of α-tocopherol (TOCO), is an essential lipophilic antioxidant widely used in topical formulations. However, incorporating pure TOCO into skincare products poses significant challenges due to its limited solubility and high sensitivity to heat, light and oxidation. The present cross-sectional study aimed to innovate by encapsulating TOCO using non-animal sustainable biopolymers through complex coacervation and to investigate the interaction of these coacervates with cosmetic emulsions, focusing on their impact on the emulsions' physicochemical properties and stability.
