research Leukotrichia Developed Following Application of Intense Pulsed Light for Hair Removal
Some people's hair turned white or gray after using intense pulsed light for hair removal, and for some, it was permanent.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is a complex condition with major health impacts, needing more research for better diagnosis and treatment.
research Live imaging of stem cell and progeny behaviour in physiological hair-follicle regeneration
Hair regeneration needs dynamic cell behavior and mesenchyme presence for stem cell activation.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Androgens and hair growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Cutaneous Scarring: Basic Science, Current Treatments, and Future Directions
New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.
research Diverse mechanisms for endogenous regeneration and repair in mammalian organs
Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.
research Elemental hair analysis: A review of procedures and applications
Hair elemental analysis could be useful for health and exposure assessment but requires more standardization and research.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have skin problems like excessive hair, acne, hair loss, and dark patches, which can be treated with hormonal and non-hormonal therapies.
research What do we know about phytotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
Some plant-based treatments can help with benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Medical treatment of hirsutism
The conclusion is that the best initial treatment for hirsutism is usually oral contraceptives, with the addition of antiandrogens or insulin sensitizers if needed, and topical eflornithine or laser treatments as supplementary options.
research Pattern Hair Loss in Men
Male pattern hair loss caused by follicular miniaturization; early diagnosis and treatment can reduce psychological burden.
research Superficial fungal infections
Accurate diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing superficial fungal infections, with terbinafine being the best oral treatment for nail infections.
research Understanding and Addressing Hair Disorders in Transgender Individuals
Hormone therapy affects hair growth in transgender individuals, with testosterone potentially causing hair loss in trans men and estrogen reducing facial/body hair in trans women; treatment options vary.
research Reduction mechanism of L ‐cysteine on keratin fibers using microspectrophotometry and Raman spectroscopy
L-cysteine slows down the breaking of bonds in hair due to electrostatic interactions.
research Microneedling dilates the follicular infundibulum and increases transfollicular absorption of liposomal sepia melanin
Microneedling helps increase the absorption of a melanin product into hair follicles, which may improve laser hair removal effectiveness.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Alopecia: unapproved treatments or indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Vesicles: Potential nano carriers for the delivery of skin cosmetics
Vesicular carriers like liposomes may improve cosmetic skin treatment delivery and effectiveness but need more human research.
research Non-invasive Approaches for the Diagnosis of Autoimmune/Autoinflammatory Skin Diseases—A Focus on Psoriasis and Lupus erythematosus
Non-invasive methods show promise for diagnosing skin diseases like psoriasis and lupus but need more research for regular use.
research Excimer Laser: A Module of the Alopecia Areata Common Protocol
The excimer laser may help hair regrow in alopecia areata patients.
research Epidemiology of Cosmetic Procedures: An Update for Dermatologists
Cosmetic procedures are growing rapidly, with safety and proper techniques being crucial.
research New potential antiscarring approaches
New antiscarring strategies show promise, including drugs, stem cells, and improved surgical techniques.
research Laser capture microdissection as a method for investigating the human hair follicle microbiome reveals region-specific differences in the bacteriome profile
Laser-capture microdissection effectively analyzes hair follicle microbiomes, revealing region-specific bacterial differences.
research Hair transplantation for men
Hair transplantation for men has improved, offering natural, lasting results, and may be enhanced by certain medications and future technologies.
research Cardio-light: nitric oxide uncaged
Low-level laser therapy using near-infrared light may help heart conditions and promote healing by releasing nitric oxide.
research Complementary Therapies for Idiopathic Hirsutism: Topical Licorice as Promising Option
Adding licorice gel to laser treatment is more effective for reducing facial hair than laser alone.
research Recent therapeutic developments for acne
