research 393 Skin manifestations and biophysical properties in patients with morbid obesity and changes after weight loss: A two-year prospective study
Weight loss surgery improved several skin conditions in obese patients but often caused hair loss.
research Bio-multifunctional alginate/chitosan/fucoidan sponges with enhanced angiogenesis and hair follicle regeneration for promoting full-thickness wound healing
Sponge helps heal wounds faster with less inflammation and better skin/hair growth.
research The impact of different hair‐removal behaviours on the biophysical and biochemical characteristics of female axillary skin
All hair removal methods irritate underarm skin and cause dryness, with shaving being less irritating but more drying than plucking or waxing.
research Introduction—Human Hair, Skin, and Hair Care Products
The book was the first to focus on the biophysical properties of hair.
research Skin manifestations and biophysical changes following weight reduction induced by bariatric surgery: A 2‐year prospective study
Bariatric surgery improved many skin conditions in obese patients but caused hair loss in some and decreased facial oil and skin elasticity.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research Biomaterial-based mechanical regulation facilitates scarless wound healing with functional skin appendage regeneration
Biomaterials can help heal wounds without scars and regenerate skin features.
research Neurotrophin-4 modulates the mechanotransducer Cav3.2 T-type calcium current in mice down-hair neurons
Neurotrophin-4 increases calcium current in specific mouse neurons through the PI3K pathway.

Human hair follicles' biomagnetic fields might contribute to migraines.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Advances in the Chemical Structure of the Hair Surface, Surface Forces and Interactions
Understanding hair surface properties is key for effective hair care products.
research Physicochemical properties of pH-sensitive hydrogels based on hydroxyethyl cellulose–hyaluronic acid and for applications as transdermal delivery systems for skin lesions
