Various obstacles stand in the way of translating photothermal through‐tissue treatments from the lab to the clinic. The topical use of NPs displaying PTE appears to be a safer, or at least easier, application, minimizing the risks of NP internalization and only requiring low irradiance. Non‐biomedical niche applications of photothermal NPs – anticounterfeit tags, proteinaceous micropatterns with embedded photothermal NPs or photothermally tunable polysulfone membranes for water filtration – have similar advantages. For more details, see the Minireview by P. Pallavicini, G. Chirico, and A. Taglietti on page 15361 ff.
