These factors can cause premature aging, weaken the skin barrier, worsen or induce pathological conditions such as acne and eczema, hyperpigmentation, and melanoma, and slow healing. Ellagic acid (EA) is a polyphenol with various pharmacological effects important for the treatment of skin conditions. It has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and depigmenting properties, and it inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase, involved in melanin production, helping reduce dark spots and exhibiting antiproliferative effects against melanoma cells. With its antioxidant effect, it protects the skin against photoaging, combats oxidative stress and signs of aging, such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity, and strengthens collagen and elastin. However, the main limits of EA are its low aqueous solubility, instability, and poor skin permeability that limit its clinical efficacy. This review focuses on EA formulations developed to overcome these limitations and improve its therapeutic effects for skin diseases. Nano-delivery systems such as vesicles, lipidic and polymeric nanoparticles, nanospheres, cyclodextrins, and nanogels have been reported alongside other innovative preparations such as biscuits, sponges, and nanosheets and conventional ones such as ointments, creams, and films.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/molecules30234493","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,21]],"date-time":"2025-11-21T08:59:46Z","timestamp":1763715586000},"page":"4493","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["An Insight on Ellagic Acid Formulations for the Management of Skin Diseases"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Rebecca","family":"Castellacci","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry \u201cUgo Schiff\u201d, University of Florence, Via Ugo Schiff 6, 50019 Sesto Fiorentino, FL, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5144-1330","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria Camilla","family":"Bergonzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry \u201cUgo Schiff\u201d, University of Florence, Via Ugo Schiff 6, 50019 Sesto Fiorentino, FL, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"40","DOI":"10.1016\/j.toxlet.2020.11.023","article-title":"Evaluating the Effect of Ozone in UV Induced Skin Damage","volume":"338","author":"Ferrara","year":"2021","journal-title":"Toxicol.
