I was on prednisone for three years due to adrenal insufficiency and acute inflammation, and I experienced thinning of the skin.
In 2020, my endocrinologist conducted an ACTH test, he switched me to hydrocortisone, and my skin slowly began to return to normal.

@swalex Good to hear the thin skinning regressed after removing prednisone. I was wondering if after stopping prednisone some of its damages would reverse.
