Abstract: Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is safe and has strong ion activity. CAP has been successfully used in treating several diseases such as chronic wounds, skin cancers and psoriasis. Keratinocytes are main constituents of skin tissue, and play an important role in the development of cutaneous diseases. CAP affects the proliferation, migration and inflammation of the keratinocytes. The mechanism of CAP affecting keratinocytes and safety in the treatment of skin disorders are reviewed in order to provide information for further clinical application of CAP.
