Skin cancer represents a global health challenge with rising incidence rates, requiring the development of comprehensive therapeutic strategies. Although conventional therapies, both local (surgery, radiotherapy) and systemic (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, molecular therapy), remain the cornerstone of managing various types of skin cancer, nanotechnology approaches now represent the cutting edge of skin cancer treatment, offering targeted drug delivery and reduced systemic toxicity. However, some limits on clinical transfer are still present. This review examines current treatment modalities ranging from conventional approaches to emerging nanotechnological innovations, such as…
