Hmm. I don't think so, but anything's possible.
The problem in Parkinson's is degeneration of midbrain dopamine neurons which project to other brain regions that regulate and coordinate body movements. It's hard to imagine what connection would exist between neurons in the skin and the dopamine neurons in the brain.
That's not to say the skin's neurons aren't amazing in their own right. Very interesting research indeed.
