ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis characterised by skin barrier disruption and immune dysregulation. Current clinical scoring systems (e.g., SCORAD) often fail to quantify subclinical pathophysiology or characterise the biopharmaceutical interface. This review synthesises the ‘bioelectric profile’ of AD, integrating electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and current perception threshold (CPT) to construct a precision phenotyping framework. Evidence indicates that EIS non‐invasively quantifies barrier integrity, with specific parameters (e.g., EIS diff ) that correlate positively with terminal differentiation proteins such as filaggrin, serving as a surrogate marker of molecular permeability. Concurrently, neuroselective CPT assessment reveals abnormal C‐fibre sensitisation in non‐lesional skin, distinguishing extrinsic from intrinsic AD phenotypes. Furthermore, we explore reciprocal interactions between bioelectric parameters, Th2/Th22 cytokines (e.g., IL‐31, IL‐13) and the microbiome. Finally, we discuss translating these signatures into closed‐loop theranostic strategies for feedback‐controlled drug delivery. This bioelectric panorama provides a unique biophysical perspective on AD pathogenesis and a theoretical foundation for future precision medicine.
