Role of probiotics in skin health: Current trends and future perspectives

The human skin is a complex ecosystem that plays a crucial role in maintaining overall health and well-being. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the potential benefits of probiotics in promoting skin health. Probiotics are live microorganisms that confer health benefits when administered in adequate amounts. Probiotics have been shown to have a positive impact on the skin microbiome, promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms and inhibiting the growth of pathogens. In addition to their effects on the skin microbiome, probiotics have also been shown to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immune-modulating effects, which may contribute to their beneficial effects on skin health. Their role in skin health is a relatively new area of research. This review aims to provide an overview of the current state of knowledge on the role of probiotics in skin health, including their potential benefits, mechanisms of action, and future perspectives.
