Researchers are collecting small tissue samples from people with inflammatory skin conditions like acne, eczema, psoriasis, and hidradenitis suppurativa, as well as from healthy volunteers. These samples will help scientists study the biological markers and genes involved in these skin diseases, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
Many inflammatory skin conditions are difficult to treat because doctors don't fully understand what causes them at the cellular level. By studying tissue samples from people with these conditions, researchers hope to discover new clues about how these diseases develop and identify new ways to treat them.

Your participation will involve a screening visit where researchers will review your medical history and examine your skin. You will then donate skin samples, which are typically collected through small biopsies or swabs. The study does not involve taking medication; it is focused entirely on collecting samples for laboratory analysis to help advance our understanding of inflammatory skin diseases.
