To evaluate the efficacy of a cream containing human UC-MSC-CM in improving skin barrier function in individuals with atopic dermatitis (AD).

• Participants: 28 individuals (15 men and 13 women) with an average age of 24.68 ± 4.32 years.

• Intervention: Application of a UC-MSC-CM cream twice daily for four weeks on both eczematous lesions and unaffected skin.

-Skin surface hydration (SCH), and Transepidermal water loss (TEWL)

SCH Increase: 15.67 AU on eczematous lesions and 14.49 AU on unaffected skin.

TEWL Decrease: 15.09 g/m²/h on eczematous lesions and 3.08 g/m²/h on unaffected skin.

The findings supported that MSC-CM-based cosmetic products can enhance skin barrier function and may serve as an effective treatment for AD.

To assess the clinical efficacy of MSC-CM derived from human adipose tissue in the treatment of scalp psoriasis.

Participant: A 38-year-old male with scalp psoriasis.

Intervention: Topical application of MSC-CM to affected areas once daily.

Follow-up Duration: One month for initial assessment and six months for monitoring relapses or adverse effects.

Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index (PSSI) score, and

Presence or absence of relapses and adverse effects.

PSSI Score Improvement: Reduced from 28 to 0 after one month.

Long-Term Outcome: No relapses or adverse effects were reported during the six-month follow-up period.
