Abstract
Abstract: Nanotechnology is a rapidly expanding field of study because of its numerous dermal applications and benefits in dermal care. It also represents progress in research and development by enhancing product efficacy through the adoption of novel technologies. Nanotechnology is increasingly being used in dermal applications to avoid some of the problems associated with traditional treatments. Dermal applications are the segment of the consumer products market that is expanding the fastest, and their popularity has exploded in recent years. In addition to wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, photoaging, hair damage, and dandruff, nanofibers are now frequently used in dermal treatments for skincare, hair, lips, and nails. These innovative dermal applications using nanofibers provide improved skin penetration, higher stability, site-specific targeting, controlled and prolonged drug release, and high entrapment effectiveness. The outcome of dermal applications can be improved with nanofibers by modifying their structure, functionality, chemical and mechanical resistance, and additional attributes. The importance of biopolymers in processing nanofibers, nanofiber processing methods, an overview of dermal applications' significance, and dermal applications based on nanofibers will all be discussed in this review.
