Abstract

The skin is the body's most superficial and innately manageable organ. To administer medication through transdermal, the stratum corneum must be penetrated. There are a number of mechanisms that have been improved to further facilitate drug penetration. Ethosomes are vesicles that deliver drugs to the dermis and the bloodstream without causing any damage to the skin. Ethosomes are drug delivery vesicles that are both pliable and soft. As a well-known permeation enhancer, ethanol provides ethosomes with outstanding flexibility and deformability, allowing them to penetrate deeply and improving medicine penetration and deposition. Therapeutic medication delivery for a wide variety of skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis, alopecia, skin infections, and hormonal deficiencies, is much improved by the altered composition of ethosomes compared to that of conventional liposomes. Ethosomes enhance the efficiency of treatment, the well-being of patients, and the affordability of care.
