The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
research Dermoscopy of scalp tumours: a multi‐centre study conducted by the international dermoscopy society
The study concluded that scalp tumors show different patterns based on age, gender, and tumor thickness, and emphasized the importance of early detection and scalp examinations.
research A comprehensive review of biochemical factors in herbs and their constituent compounds in experimental studies on alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Ectodysplasin-A2 induces dickkopf 1 expression in human balding dermal papilla cells overexpressing the ectodysplasin A2 receptor
A protein called ectodysplasin-A2 increases a hair growth inhibitor in balding cells, which could be a target for hair loss treatment.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Exhaustive analysis of scalp hair regression: subjective and objective perception from initial hair loss to severe miniaturisation and drug-induced regrowth
Hair loss reduces hair thickness and coverage, but drug treatments mainly revive dormant hairs rather than reverse thinning; patients often undervalue their hair loss severity.
research Narrative review of facial gender surgery: approaches and techniques for the frontal sinus and upper third of the face
Facial gender surgery techniques focus on forehead and hairline changes for accurate results.
research Male pattern hair loss: Can developmental origins explain the pattern?
Male pattern hair loss may be linked to the developmental origins of hair follicles.
research Comparative Evaluation of Buffy Coat–Derived and Apheresis Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia: Laboratory and Clinical Insights
Buffy coat PRP is more effective for hair growth in androgenetic alopecia than apheresis PRP.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia often occurs after menopause, with delayed diagnosis and possible links to certain medications and conditions.
research Efficacy of type A botulinum toxin treatment for androgenetic alopecia using ultrasound combined with trichoscopy
Botulinum toxin treatment improves hair follicle width and length in androgenetic alopecia.
research Response to “Reply to effectiveness of dutasteride in a large series of patients with FFA in real clinical practice”
The authors suggest that 5-α-reductase inhibitors, like dutasteride, are effective in treating frontal fibrosing alopecia and should be the first-line treatment, with other options for severe cases. They also recommend further research on Janus kinase inhibitors.
research Trichoscopy – a valuable tool for identifying conditions mimicking androgenetic alopecia
Trichoscopy helps tell apart other hair loss conditions from common hair loss.
research An in silico approach to the identification of potential proteomic and genomic diagnostic biomarkers for primary cicatricial alopecia

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.
