Abstract
The acid mantle concept refers to the buffer system located in the upper stratum corneum of the skin. By sustaining an acidic environment, the acid mantle contributes to the regulation of the microbiome, structural stability, and inflammation. Skin pH is pivotal in maintaining the integrity of the epidermal barrier. Shifts in pH can disrupt barrier properties, and recent studies have emphasized its impact on dermatologic disease processes. This review explores the complex relationship of mechanisms through which skin pH impacts dermatologic pathologies. Furthermore, we highlight the promising potential of pH-targeted therapies for advancing the management of skin conditions.
