research Activation of Cytoprotective Prostaglandin Synthase-1 by Minoxidil as a Possible Explanation for Its Hair Growth-Stimulating Effect
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by activating PGHS-1.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research From neural crest cells to melanocytes: cellular plasticity during development and beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Postnatal Hair Follicle Differentiation and Cycling
Blocking BMP signaling causes hair loss and disrupts hair growth cycles.
research Pinpoint white dots in the scalp: Dermoscopic and histopathologic correlation
Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.
research Male pattern hair loss: current understanding
Genetics and hormones cause hair loss; finasteride treats it safely.
research Medical applications of tattooing
Tattooing helps treat skin conditions, reconstruct nipple-areola, mark radiation fields, and locate lesions.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Micropigmentation
Micropigmentation is a widely accepted tattooing technique for hiding cosmetic issues and medical uses, with permanent results and few side effects, but risks infection if not done with sterile tools.
research Original article: Platelet-rich plasma with microneedling in androgenetic alopecia along with dermoscopic pre- and post-treatment evaluation
PRP with microneedling effectively treats hair loss, and dermoscopy helps evaluate results.
research Integral hair lipid in human hair follicle
Human hair has a protective lipid layer that can be damaged by moisture and treatments, affecting hair growth and health.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Concomitant Use of Hyaluronic Acid and Laser in Facial Rejuvenation
Using hyaluronic acid fillers and laser together is generally safe and effective for facial rejuvenation, but careful planning is needed.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research Measurement of hair growth
Scalp hair grows at 0.37 mm/day, forearm hair at 0.18 mm/day, and thigh hair at 0.30 mm/day, with no significant differences found in people with certain hair conditions.
research Physiologic changes and dermatoses of pregnancy
Most pregnant women experience skin changes like darkening and itching, while serious skin conditions are rare but need early treatment.
research Hair Loss in Systemic Disease
Systemic diseases can cause hair loss, which is often reversible with treatment.
research Lasers, Microneedling, and Platelet-Rich Plasma for Skin Rejuvenation and Repair
Lasers, microneedling, and PRP improve skin rejuvenation and repair, with PRP enhancing the effects when combined with other treatments.
research Skin Hyperpigmentation and Increased Angiogenesis Secondary to Vitamin B12 Deficiency in a Young Vegetarian Woman
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause skin darkening and increased blood vessels, but treatment can improve symptoms.
research Hair Coloration by Gene Regulation: Fact or Fiction?
Gene regulation could revolutionize hair color by altering pigmentation from within.
research Stress-sensing in the human greying hair follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) depletion in hair bulb melanocytes in canities-prone scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research From Surgery to Pharmacology to Gene Therapy
Hair restoration has evolved from surgery to drugs to potential gene therapy, with improved results and ongoing research driven by high demand.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
