April 2024 in “Molecules/Molecules online/Molecules annual” Paris polyphylla saponins may effectively treat acne due to their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
March 2023 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology” A woman's progressive hair loss was correctly diagnosed as a rare condition called fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution after initially being mistaken for a more common type.
September 2012 in “Hair transplant forum international” The document concludes with the creation of a Hair Transplant Foundation after reviewing the early hair transplant techniques and discussions from a forum.

December 2024 in “Journal of Skin and Stem Cell” Trichoscopy helps diagnose and manage different types of hair loss in the Indian population.
March 2024 in “Journal of clinical medicine” Trichoscopy shows hair diameter variability, vellus hairs, and the peripilar sign are key indicators for diagnosing Androgenetic Alopecia.

January 2026 in “Archives of Current Medical Research” Telogen effluvium is the most common hair loss in women, often linked to low iron, while tight hairstyles and headscarves increase traction alopecia risk.
June 2023 in “JEADV. Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology/Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology” New technologies show potential for better understanding and treating skin conditions with abnormal mucin, but more research is needed for clinical use.
July 2021 in “Indian journal of dermatopathology and diagnostic dermatology” Trichoscopy is a reliable method for diagnosing hair and scalp disorders quickly and non-invasively.
July 2019 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.
January 2022 in “Stem cell biology and regenerative medicine” New biofabrication technologies could lead to treatments for hair loss.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
