Abstract:
Skin infections are a major global health burden, made worse by the quick development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the poor effectiveness of traditional antibiotic treatments for chronic and recurring diseases. The importance of the skin microbiome in preserving cutaneous homeostasis, pathogen exclusion, and immunological modulation is becoming more and more clear. Many infectious and inflammatory skin conditions have been linked to dysbiosis of the skin microbiota, which has led to a strategic reorientation from pathogen control to microbiome regulation. Probiotics, prebiotics, postbiotics, bacteriophages, microbiome transplants, and new methods in synthetic microbiome engineering are just a few of the recent advances in microbiome-based therapies in skin diseases that are covered in detail in this review. We go into the clinical effectiveness, safety issues, regulatory obstacles, and molecular underpinnings of various therapies. The promise of microbiome-based treatments to lower AMR, improve long-term effectiveness, and restore microbial balance is highlighted by comparison with traditional antibiotics. Lastly, future possibilities are examined that highlight the translational potential of microbiome-centred techniques in dermatology treatments, such as multi-omics integration, artificial intelligence-guided customisation, or synthetic microbial consortia.
