research Biomechanical properties of scalp flaps and their correlations to reconstructive and aesthetic surgery procedures
Scalp flaps are stiffer than skin from other body areas, which helps in planning reconstructive and cosmetic head surgeries.
research Involvement of mechanical stress in androgenetic alopecia
Mechanical stress contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Minimal Scars for Scalp Surgery
New scalp surgery technique results in thinner, less visible scars.
research Lateral Brow Lift: A Multi-Point Suture Fixation Technique
The lateral brow lift technique is safe, effective, and provides long-lasting results.
research Reconstructive surgery of the scalp: indications and techniques
Scalp reconstruction is complex and aims to restore function and appearance after damage.
research Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Remodeling of Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness) via Bio-Electric and Hydrodynamic Restoration
Male pattern baldness may be reversed by reducing scalp tension and improving blood flow.
research Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Remodeling of Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness) via Bio-Electric and Hydrodynamic Restoration
Male pattern baldness may be treated by addressing blood flow and electrical issues in the scalp.
research Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Remodeling of Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness) via Bio-Electric and Hydrodynamic Restoration
Male pattern baldness may be reversed by reducing scalp tension and improving blood flow.
research Pathophysiology and Therapeutic Remodeling of Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Baldness) via Bio-Electric and Hydrodynamic Restoration
Male pattern baldness may be reversed by addressing scalp tension and improving blood flow.
research Do androgens really play a major role in the pathophysiology of androgenetic alopecia?
Androgens might not be the only major factor in hair loss; other elements could also be important.
research Pictorial Essay on Hair Loss; the Result of Head Bones Displacement
The essay suggests hair loss might be caused by changes in skull bones.
research Minimal Scars for Scalp Surgery
A new scalp surgery technique leads to significantly thinner scars.
research Galea Fixation in Alopecia Reduction Surgery
Galea fixation is a safe and effective way to remove bald scalp with minimal scarring and reduced stretch-back.
research Scalp Flaps
Scalp flaps are used for reconstruction, considering factors like inelasticity, hair growth, and blood supply, with techniques adapting to age-related changes in vascularity.
research Tissue Expanders in Post-Burn Alopecia: With or Without Galeotomies
Using tissue expanders with galeotomies for post-burn alopecia is faster and has fewer complications.
research Scalp and Forehead
The document concludes that successful surgical repair of scalp and forehead issues requires careful planning and various techniques depending on the injury or defect size.
research Clinical Experience With Tissue Expansion
Tissue expansion is a useful method for reconstructive surgery with good results and room for further enhancement.
research Scalp reconstruction
Different scalp reconstruction methods work well, but the best one depends on the patient's unique needs.
research An Analysis of Follicular Punches, Mechanics, and Dynamics in Follicular Unit Extraction
Using sharp tools and the right techniques in hair transplant surgery leads to less damage to hair follicles.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research The tumescent technique facilitates hair micrografting
The tumescent technique improves hair micrografting by providing lasting anesthesia, reducing bleeding, and increasing patient comfort.
research Scalp Surgery: Anatomic and Biomechanical Considerations
The document concludes that following specific surgical guidelines can improve scalp surgery results and reduce complications.
research Prevention and treatment of linear scar formation in the scalp: Basic principles of the mechanism of scar formation
New suturing technique with wider intervals and shallow stitches helps prevent scalp scars and promotes hair growth.
research The Expanded “Flying-Wings” Scalp Flap for Aesthetic Hemiscalp Alopecia Reconstruction in Children
The "flying-wings" scalp flap technique is a simple, safe, and effective way to reconstruct large areas of scalp loss in children.
research Anchor Scalp Reduction
Both ASR I and ASR II are effective scalp reduction techniques, with ASR I creating finer scars and ASR II removing more bald area and reducing stretch-back.
research The ‘bald’ phenotype (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by the high glycaemic, high cholesterol and low mineral ‘western diet’
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research Split skin graft “from scalp to scalp” for repairing large surgical defects
Scalp-to-scalp skin grafts quickly heal and hide well under regrown hair, making them good for repairing large scalp defects.
research Refining hair restoration technique
In 2002, hair restoration improved by using a different area for grafts and absorbable sutures, leading to less discomfort and better results.
research The pedicled temporoparietal fascial flap
The pedicled temporoparietal fascial flap is a reliable and versatile option for reconstructive surgery in the head and neck area.
