“…Stratum spinosum is continued with stratum granulosum characterized by 6 layers with elongated and nucleated cells which contain keratohyalin complexes and lamellar bodies [ 46 , 47 ]. Thus, keratohyalin has a key role in the development of the cornified envelope due to the presence of three main proteins profilaggrin, loricrin and involucrin which are implied in biochemical reactions that sustain the epidermal evolution and integrity of the external layer, the stratum corneum [ 48 ].…”

“…The basal membrane of epidermis assures a functional interdependence between both layers. Fibroblasts are the main cells of dermis level beyond mast cells, histiocytes and adipocytes [ 48 , 57 ]. Fibroblasts assure connections with the epidermal layer, being recognized basically as specialized cells that confer skin tightness and elasticity [ 58 ].…”

With a fascinating complexity, governed by multiple physiological processes, the skin is considered a mantle with protective functions which during lifetime are frequently impaired, triggering dermatologic disorders. As one of the most prevalent dermatologic conditions worldwide, characterized by a complex pathogenesis and a high recurrence, acne can affect the patient’s quality of life. Smart topical vehicles represent a good option in the treatment of a versatile skin condition. By surpassing the stratum corneum known for diffusional resistance, a superior topical bioavailability can be obtained at the affected place. In this direction, the literature study presents microemulsions as a part of a condensed group of modern formulations. Microemulsions are appreciated for their superior profile in matters of drug delivery, especially for challenging substances with hydrophilic or lipophilic structures. Formulated as transparent and thermodynamically stable systems, using simplified methods of preparation, microemulsions have a simple and clear appearance. Their unique structures can be explained as a function of the formulation parameters which were found to be the mainstay of a targeted therapy.
